DaveChung.com - A Guy's Blog From Girl World | Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner Advertise AT&T’s LG Shine

In what is one of my favorite television commercials of the moment, The Hills’ Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner sit down for a very Hills-y outdoor meal in a commercial for LG’s mirroriffic Shine phone. The commercials pays tribute to Laguna Beach by referring to Lauren as “LC,” as Lauren scolds the extended Kardashian family member for checking out some girls that are no where near as hot as the Laguna Beach native.

For me, I see this commercial on VH1 and it feels like a perfect fit… if it’s on the right channel. However, outside of the MTV/VH1/E! generation, do people know who Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner are? Does anyone know that Lauren works in the fashion industry and that socialite Brody Jenner and our beloved Laguna alumna have history that makes this commercial relevant?

I was shocked to see this commercial initially because I wondered if LC and Brody were mainstream enough for something like this, but the tween/teen/twenties millenials have clearly made The Hills stars big enough that someone thought it was a brilliant idea to put these two good looking stars on TV together.

While about 95% of the country won’t get it, the people who need to get it, who will care about this phone, will get it.
