The indignities our 'national treasures' have to suffer

The Beckhams, Sean Connery and Keanu Reeves have been press-ganged into promoting an aphrodisiac on Chinese TV, not that they were asked in advance of the broadcast.

The video - of shockingly poor video quality - is here. I would embed it, but it is not on youtube, but rather a Chinese equivalent, and I cannot fathom where, if anywhere, is the embedding code.

"In the video, with Victoria wrapped in his arms, the English footballer is seen praising the product in fluent Mandarin gushing that his performance on the soccer field had greatly benefited and that the product was his secret to “satisfying Victoria in bed”.

Keanu Reeves and Sean Connery said the product was a great surprise to both them and their partners. Sporting moments and intimate scenes captured from their movies were used to demonstrate how effective the product was".

More here.


Entirely work / significant other safe - assuming same lack facility in Mandarin, I suppose.
