Super Bowl LVIII or Super Bowl 58 went down this past Sunday evening. The Kansas City Chiefs were once again named champions of the NFL as Patrick Mahomes snags his third Vince Lombardi Trophy. Outside of the game and the Halftime Show, the other major talking point on the day of the game and after are the commercials. Over the years, it seems the ads have gotten more PC or politically correct. What we mean by that is companies have to take a safer approach to their advertising so they do not upset or offend anyone. A perfect example of this was a Cardi B Super Bowl commercial that saw her partner with NYX Cosmetics.
We have seen some pretty explicit commercials in the past from restaurants such as Carl's Jr. and Hardees. The sexual insinuations toward guys' manhood were so graphic that they had to be banned. However, this new one with Cardi B is more funny than overtly arousing. NYX Cosmetics wanted to promote their new lip gloss line called Duck Pump. If your brain is wired a little differently, you have an idea of where this is going.
Cardi B And NYX Cosmetics Are Comedic Geniuses
Sure, Cardi B is talking a little sexually on the nose, but that was not the part that had the NFL up in arms. The reason why the Super Bowl ad was shortened was because of the breaking news segment in the commercial. Guys were using the Duck Pump on their privates to them bigger. The whole draw of this lip gloss is for the ladies to have fuller and more plump lips, but "Duck" was heard as another similarly sounding word by male consumers. Cardi hilariously finds out about this news and says at the end, "They put it where?" You can check out the full video found by Uproxx above.
