Kohls (Rebecca) Black Friday Ad Is A Bomb

I heard from my kids that Kohls did a take off on Rebecaa Black's controversial "worst song ever" Friday, so I tried to view it and found it it was SOOOOO un/popular the Kohl official site TOOK IT DOWN as private. It's not clear whether zillions of people expressed their hate, or if they forgot to clear the rights to the song but it's already generated dozens of anti-Kohl rants in tribute videos. Somebody who looks like Rebecca Black appears in a red coat.

see http://www.huliq.com/10559/kohls-black-friday-2011-ad-uses-rebecca-blacks-friday-song
Some Kohls employees and customers oppose the use of the song because of all the people who disliked it.

The best surviving copy of the commercial seems to be this one with 300,000 hits by Nov 26


Bing shows this, most reviews seem to be "annoyed" "awkward" "worst ad of the season"

    Adrants comments:
    You can argue Kohl’s is doing irreparable damaged to it’s brand by associating itself with Black’s Friday. You can be concerned several YouTube commenters who claim to be Kohl’s employees are ashamed to work at the retailer and, in some cases, have decided to quit. …Or you can laud the brand for latching on to something that’s guaranteed to garner a significant amount of conversation, discussion and publicity.

  • Congratulations to Kohl's on their early entry in the 2012 Worst Ad in America contest. Their parody version of Rebecca Black's "Friday" is just as grating as the ...

    Take a song that everyone hated so much that they watched it on YouTube eight million times. Add a singer displaying classic "bad consumer" behavior—shoving an elderly woman, stealing merchandise out of a fellow shopper's cart—and you have an ad so awful that people can't stop talking about it. Well, complaining
