Here’s an image from what is apparently an ad campaign in Australia. It looks like the Hoff is about to get raped by a giant Pepsi bottle. And he’s decided to sing about it. I don’t know what in god’s name he’s doing with the microphone stand, but the bottle sure seems to enjoy it. If that doesn’t make you thirsty, nothing will.
Thanks to Andrew for the tip.































He sure takes himself seriously, doesn’t he?
Yes, David, you’re special. Very very special.
i wish kit would run him over now.
errr people the ad is OBVIOUSLY a piece of clever kitsch. the whole hoff resurgence is ironic and self referencing.
and if you thought aussies sincerely love the hoff….please stab yourself in the heart immediately. thanks.
This ad campaign was made by BBDO. They use celebs from different countries to star using their “tools of the trade” to open PEPSI bottles in these PEPSI ads. Although…what the heck is Hasslehoff doing in an AUSTRALIAN version of the campaign?!
47 HappyDay LOL! but…
SHIT! Don’t DO THAT to me when I’m drinking Orangina! CHRIST! I think the orange even came out my nose (That burns, dammit)
double strikethru —> forcing my eyes to zoom down onto Hoff’s cheesy doodle over and over

Good GOD! One of the many reasons I drink Coke. This is just plain awful and embarrassing for David – what was he thinking? He needs to stick with “Hooked On a Feeling” videos. No matter why his wife left him.
Ummm, Yo, David? The 80s are over. What the F is with the white suit? Shame on you for robbing from Barry Manilow’s closet. Please fall into the Giant Pepsi bottle with the microphone plugged in and die, pretty please?
I love this ad. It’s on bus shelters everywhere at the moment.
In Australia, he only became awesome a couple of years ago, after all the emails started to circulate. For a good one, do a google search on the hoff and katrina nugent. Go Hoffman!
Why is he posing with a microphone? Maybe it’s the fact his music single handedly brought down the Berlin Wall and paved the way for democracy in eastern europe. David’s lyrics and lack of arse are an inspiration.
I still don’t know what Pepsi is doing with these ads… they’re everywhere here in Oz, but not just the Hoff, there’s sports people, actors, etc.
The Hoff is entertainment over here because of the emails, and also because when he was out here he managed to take the piss out of himself quite well (he walked around in a “don’t hassle the hoff” t-shirt and actually understood the joke) but then he decided to do a concert series down here, and wanted to charge $120 for tickets… Hate to tell you Hoff, you’re funny cause you suck, but I ain’t paying jack to listen to you sing.
One day I will have that man.
Spot the subliminal BJ.
It’s as if he posed with the microphone, you know, thinking it was serious and all…and then the Pespsi graphic designers played a cruel, cruel, joke on him. However, I would probally pose with a Pepsi bottle in my mouth and the other end being held by Hasslehoff on live TV for what they most likely paid him….and then afterward I break off the bottle and demand him to make a Knight Rider movie.

WTF?!?!?!?
I mean… okay, so he’s in a – umm – bathroom? And the Pepsi is bursting through the floor. Okay, got it. But is that a bit of a bottle opener, disembodied at the side of the cap? (Oh, no, it’s the base of the microphone stand.) And why is the soda blasting out to the side like that? Because, if it blasted straight up, it would stain his britches? Or because it would INSEMINATE him?
And why the white leather duds? And the cowboy boots with metal tips on the toes? Is he channeling Elvis? Do the Aussies grok Elvis?
And what could he be POSSIBLY be singing?
What ever The Hoff does is SEXY. He is just pure sex. But I do think he needs a new manager.
See! This is why I tell my husband to lay off the pepsi. I fight with him all the time to stop drinking so much soda. Maybe this picture will do the trick. You know like an anti drug campaign!!!
My friend Neil has now found his own personal Mona Lisa.
You people suggesting that he get a new manager and saying “the stuff he does it embarrassing” etc etc are insane.
Hello, he’s advertising for PEPSI. What does that mean? MONEY. As someone else said, obviously he knows he’s a cheesy posterboy, and is exploiting it. If he wasnt cheesy, his photos wouldnt be circulating on the internet and he would have been forgotten about by 1986.
i always new he is gay!!!!
