a group of girls at my office, typical GAP shoppers you could say, were going on and on about how cute this ad is.

...and you set them on fire, I trust.

No no, but I did give them more work. I am "the man".

madonna looks tired and joyless in the ad. missy looks ebullient by comparison.

It seems they've clipped the ad a little bit, excising the final scene of Madonna asserting "I can do that too," trying to mimic Missy's split.

there were always two versions of it though. There's no agenda to that!

Sad effort in commercialism, though I'm glad to see Missy strutting her stuff anywhere.

Madge's bills can't be that tight, surely.

also even when saying something so colloquially american as "best to take it from me" madonna can't seem to let go of her adopted patrician accent. it sounds awkward.
