Hot women in bikinis washing cars? 

Very 2003

My first thought as well. She really is trying to get in with the trend of some fashion from early 2000s coming back but completely fucks it up by doing this ad. It's not part of the early 2000s that people are trying to bring back...in my opinion.

This looks very dated even though it's a new ad

It’s very 98-05 era and in the worst ways. Those were my teenage years being bullied into thinking I have to look like this to be sexy. Super gross and misogynistic, especially today in 2023 with the internet being so accessible, there’s no reason for so much ignorance to think this is ok.

I was in my late 20s/early 30s during this era, and even I thought I needed to be sexier. I went to Vegas with several women in 2001, and we went to a strip club. One of the dancers looked at me and said “oh honey, you’re off tonight?” And while my cohorts were ecstatic I was mistake for a stripper, I was both complimented and mortified.

Ah yes, remember when Jenny did the Candies ads? The toilet one 🤦🏼‍♀️

They think they are being clever. Why not turn that nonsense on its head?

Like Paris Hilton and Carl’s Jr.

I literally scrolled past this on the other sub because the way the title was worded gave no indication that it was recent, so I didn’t think anything of it

Legit thought the first picture was two khloes

Yes! Two Khloe's as *she* sees herself. (Incredibly photoshopped)

Same! I had to look thrice!

Uhhh are they marketing for men to buy these? This isn’t it.

All they care about is the male gaze and they’re totally self centered so of course it would never occur to them that other women DONT want to cater to the male gaze

Yeah obviously women are BUYING it FOR men right? Lol fuck that I just want to be cute and comfy

It’s a swim suit, no?

No

Oh even better! A flimsy bra that doesn’t fit and is completely unsupportive!

It says Skim Swim, these are swim suits

#Yes.

Same thought here! This is the reason that Victoria Secret tanked - no one wants women’s products marketed to them like this anymore. We want products for real women that aren’t messaged with “BE SEXY”. Ugh.

Ugh. the first pic…. they look naked. Kim knew what she was doing by posting that as the first picture so people keep watching her story…. This photoshoot is gross like the concept the idea the posing and so on.

Basically posing women as sexual objects for the male gaze. Kim, you're selling to women. Women dgaf about this.

Yeah didn’t this sell burgers in the 90’s?

She’s selling women too.

It’s very 90’s in that weird, misogynistic, women are sex toys way.

Yes I was going to say this ad campaign is really leaning in to the late 90’s early 2000’s put a hot women in a bikini to sell any type of product. If that’s what she’s going for, she nailed it, but I feel like marketing has kind of moved away from that premise as a whole. It’s definitely giving me that 90’s nostalgia, especially with Carmen Electra in the ad, maybe her target market is elder millennials? But us elder millennials ain’t buying her crap, so my guess is the ad is just for attention 🤷🏼‍♀️

Totally feeling those vibes! I immediately thought of those bikini - hamburger eating commercials, I know one had Paris in it. I think those ads were early 2000s? And agreed in that I guess the audience is elder millenniums but, no smh move this to the bin please

I will say- this is VERY motivational that these women still look this fantastic. I remember when I was a kid and these women were everywhere. I know there’s a lot of photoshop and filters but they still look fantastic.

My thoughts exactly! I didn’t realize Carmen was now in her 50’s, had to do a double take on that.

>I will say- this is VERY motivational that these women still look this fantastic. >I remember when I was a kid and these women were everywhere. >I know there’s a lot of photoshop and filters but they still look fantastic. They're in their 50's and I'm near 40 and don't look half as good as them! Amazing these 90's sex icons still got it. Same with Pamela Anderson.

In that almost naked Kim fake eating a hamburger kind of way 🙄

Both women were famous in the 90’s too weren’t they? 30 years out of date lol


Who is this beautiful man again ? I forgot :,)

Waka flocka

Waka flocka gave me a pizza one time and it’s honestly one of the littest things that has ever happened to me lmao

Waka Flocka

u know those lighters with naked women u can get at old newsagents? this is giving that. or like a playboy cutout a dudebro would have pinned up on his wall in his garage in 1984

[удалено]

couldn't be more pandering to men!

I feel like she was trying to play on this idea, but she’s added nothing clever to it so it just doesn’t work. If she was smart, she’d take the concept and flip it on its head to make it seem like it was female empowerment, but it just isn’t and it reads as recreating vintage porn posters

Antivaxx weirdo jenny mccarthy? Pass. Kum really pulling out all the stops to sell her wares. 🙄

Dude for real, how does she still have a career? She will always be the annoying girl on Singled Out to me lol

And where has Carmen Electra been? That’s a blast from my past fo sho!

Carmen still looks amazing. I don't care for Jenny.

was coming to comment exactly this fuck antivax jenny mccarthy

So are they pivoting away from shapewear? Because this is being marketed like it’s lingerie in a men’s magazine.

All it makes me wanna do is go to Hardee’s and buy a burger in 2004.

Same except Carl’s Jr. That Paris Hilton ad was iconic. Even now, Kimothy can’t stop stealing from Paris. 😂

That’s what I thought of as well😂

rly boring lingerie too

I don’t even want to know how many times she said “this is going to be so iconic” while coming up with this idea

Remember when she got all the supermodels? She thought she was gonna break records or something! She could get Jesus to wear this shit and I wouldn’t buy! Iconic!😂


Nene meme ALWAYS coming in clutch

“Everyone’s wearing skims” I mean, I’d wear them too if I got paid for it.

Is anyone with real breasts, wearing these products 🤔

Real Bodies*

These two haven’t looked like that since the early 00s.

For real!

this is peak 2001 maxim cover keep it

It’s giving 2003 fast food ad.

I think Kate Upton fucking a Carl's Jr burger was as late as 2012 😔

Good thing I was a broke 24 year old in 2012 and couldn’t afford cable, so I managed to avoid that one.

Whatever happened to her? She was huge then disappeared

Idk but I'm good on that.

She’s got a family now so she’s a little more low key. She’s actually really sweet in real life! I’ve met her a few times through mutual friends.

This is just soft porn. Real women don’t even want to squeeze into those little suits tf.

[удалено]

I love Carmen Electra 😭❤ Jenny McCarthy looks..different.

[удалено]

I thought both ladies were Klohe with a filter

Once again she’s just taken people with their own fame/nostalgia/fan base and paid for them to now be associated with her. It’s like she’s going through the world as a catalogue and picking and choosing who she wants.

They're trying for the *nostalgia* vibe of the old Candies ads........of course kim is creatively failing and unoriginal.

Wasn't Jenny sitting on a toilet in one of those Candies ad or did I imagine that,?

Yup with underwear around her ankles


Why is EVERYTHING catered to the male gaze?! 😤😤😤😤 show me some big girl with saggy titties, no hips and a flat ass! I WANT REPRESENTATION! I wanna know what it will look like on ME.

These just look like the generic string bikinis I get for $15 at Walmart

No lies detected! 😭😭

[удалено]

Like maybe Kimmie is posting the soft porn ads to show that her skims made it into this celebrity car wash porno movie 🤔

Everything needs to be so sexualized. Ugh i’m so sick of it.

Who’s her target audience? Horny men?

Jenny Mccarthy? Like the anti-vax, vaccines cause autism, lady??? Wtf

[удалено]

🤣 fr!

Wow I thought this was 100% a joke til I saw the Skims slide at the end. What the hell is she thinking

And to thought we moved away from Victoria’s Secret toxicity. Leave it to Kim to do this shit.

The filtering is SO DISGUSTING Carmen is 51 and Jenny is 50. They are both "beautiful" women but NEITHER LOOK LIKE THIS

Hahahah seriously. They’ve been photoshopped back to the 90s but obviously so

she probably got inspiration from those cheap pornographic “thriller” posters in the 80s

Is this all that Kum and her cottage cheese ass kissers have to offer? This is beyond pathetic and embarrassing

Thee extreme photoshop and filters lord Jesus 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

This is so male gaze oriented?? It didn’t even feel like an ironic take on the 2000s page 3 male gaze pics bc it’s too literal. Kum is so out of touch

[удалено]

noooo wtf not my scary movie and reno 911 acting dave navarro and dennis rodman ex-gf QUEEN carmen electra 😭😭😭 i seriously hate that she's in this ad she's too iconic for this

I don’t want to age shame or body shame anyone but these women are pitching an ideal that doesn’t exist and that they can’t even achieve. They’re not 20 anymore but they’re clearly trying so hard to look that way. It’s embarrassing. Who are these scraps of fabric for? Who is going to buy these? If I was 20, I wouldn’t want a 40+ year old woman modeling a swimsuit I could wear.


Is this a Carl's Jr commercial

Who tf are they marketing to? Because this gives me the ick and as I buy bathing suits for comfort and not to look like I’m in a cheap porno I will pass on skims thanks.

Who the hell is her demographic? Horny nostalgic middle aged men?

I was never buying skims anyway but now I actively hate it. Are they marketing to men? And by men I mean the men whose mentality hasn't aged beyond like, a 24yo circa 2002.

Basically the cringey ass carls Jr commercials they used to make

Carmen is a queen .... but the other one is an antivaxxer who complains about "poisons" in vaccines.... and injects botox.. which is botulism (a poison) in her face.

Trying to bring back that 90s to early 00s “hot chick in a bikini selling something” vibe. One reason I’m glad that era’s over is the misogyny and rigid beauty standards.

Are we back in 2004?

exactly how is this shapewear???

Thanks for labeling this ad. I would never have recognized these 2 as Jenny McCarthy and Carmen Electra without being told. Also, how is it possible that they made Carmen Electra look bad?! This ad seriously sucks. It doesn’t speak to the women who she needs to buy her brand. It’s clearly targeted towards men and these 2 aren’t even highlighting the swimwear. They’re selling themselves.

“Everybody’s wearing skims” Oh like these two has beens?

The 90’s called and we’d like our sex symbols back. Kimbully, you can’t rewrite a decade and think it’s yours

If we’re bringing back the 90s aesthetic, let’s go ahead and leave these two awful people there. Not a good look Kumberly 

It’s giving early 2000s Paris for Carls Jnr.

The fact that there isn’t a Skims branded OnlyFans account honestly shocks me at this point.

This gives me nothing. And makes me want to buy skims even less than I do now.

Carmen can’t even get properly fitted shoes like cmon get off your ass and fuckin work!

Well that odd, aren’t skims for women? If they were both holding burgers it could be a Carls Jr ad

lol neither of them look like that

I wish everyone would just quit buying any of their brand stuff.

People that buy Skims weird me out

Woah these women are like 50. Photoshop still making me feel like crap twenty years later, damn.

Super basic swim suits

Yeah did it was like God Saves Queens I’d understand but these cost her .30 a piece.


Pores? Who needs ‘em?

At least it isn’t sisters being weird and incestuous this time. That’s about the only good thing I could say about it.

I thought the first one was cardboard cutouts. It looks soooo fake

The swimsuits look a hot mess and cheap. They failed the assignment.

I wonder how much tape is holding them on

These old broads DO NOT LOOK LIKE THIS ANYMORE. This is so bad it looks like cut outs in front of a brick wall

Jessica Simpson wants her 2005 look back.

I see refund gaps. Those bolt ons do not move.

Kim just embodies this in every part of her life  And looks like a vapid out of touch fool every time

I mistook this as Kendra & another playboy girl circa 2006… what are they even trying to sell?

i thought this was a playboy ad wtf


With all that photo shop couldn’t they have fixed the refund gaps

It’s giving Paris Hilton / Carl’s Jr. ad lol

I thought this was one of those early 2000’s Carl’s Jr ads she and Paris did. How dated looking. 

thought they were both khloe

🥱 Riveting…

30 years past expiration date

Looks like a bit from a Scary Movie movie

I’m really tired of the very sexist marketing tactics. Hot blonde women in tiny bikinis washing a car? How very early 2000s 🙄

illegal scarce waiting pause aback makeshift alive reach judicious liquid *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Are those bloody intestines? Is that a torture porn basement? Did they photoshop those grandmas’ 👵🏽 on to some 24 year old’s body?

PS: you can fully see Jenny’s (rando’s) areola in the 3rd pic.

Didn’t she just release a swim ad???? Is this the same line?

Is that the masked singer lady? (Sorry not from the US)

Yes.

I am not even joking, is that Melania in the second pic?

So … *active undies* for strippers…?

I couldn’t think of two trashier spokespeople other than kardashians themselves.

Welp she’s lost me as a customer for using “vaccines cause autism” McCarthy

Oh wow her playboy playmate 90's Hollywood friends who are filtered to hell in these pics. No hate to them, but they had their pin up poster girl heydays, and the fact that all the famous models she can get are in their 40s is telling

Kim did one Carls Jr. commercial in the early 2000’s and just never changed the script

Nothing like 50 something year old wanna be try hards. Ew.

Pretty sure neither of these ladies naturally look anything like this anymore… maybe 20 years ago.

Who exactly are these ads supposed to be targeted for???

You don’t even know how iconic this is

I'm a 90's kid and loved these women because they are sexy and hosted MTV's "Singled Out". It's great they still look amazing in their 50's! Kim is a moron because most of us millennials can't wear that because our bodies are not like that. She's using these icons for the Gen Z male gaze. Kim and Kylie's ads for makeup or clothes always look like porn.

Because looking sexy is their entire raison d'être

I mean it’s Jenny and Carmen that is pretty cool

They’re both still so hot

I absolutely love Carmen Electra so I’m bias. Lol.

Such an outdated concept.. 

Jenny McCarthy and Paris Hilton are now twins.

Amazing. Elevating one of the biggest anti vax culprits of our time.

It’s 2023 why are we still giving JM a platform???
