Guitar Hero Heats Up

Many of you have probably already seen this by now (over a million hits on YouTube in four days!), but if so, then you can probably stand to see it again. Just when I was starting to get bored with the Risky Business pastiche Guitar Hero World Tour ads, they give us this gem:

Granted, I thought that the David vs. David American Idol versions were kind of cute (Cook wins by a landslide!), but considering that their key demographic is probably young men, I think that Heidi Klum in her skivvies was probably the way to go.

Though if they’re going to have a band, why not have a band? (I found the athelete version pretty cheesy.) If they want to hook that teen girl demographic too (which seems to be the goal of the latest Nintendo DS ads), I’m sure that the Jonas Brothers would love to dance around in their boxers.

Who would you like to see in the next Guitar Hero commercial? (Note: “I never want to see another one again” is a perfectly acceptable response. However, the incorrect response is “Tom Cruise,” since I think we’ve seen enough of him jumping on couches lately.)
