    Super Bowl Advertisers Embrace Diversity

    SUPER BOWL ADVERTISERS EMBRACE DIVERSITY... CAUTIOUSLY Big Game marketers look to better represent women and minorities without offending anyone By Jeanine Poggi This year’s crop of Super Bowl commercials will feature two drag queens, an all-female cast, Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, and a “Queer Eye” guy. It's a step in better representing modern society by casting more diverse ethnicities, lifestyles and cultural perspectives in the Big Game. It’s an effort that shouldn’t further fracture a divided nation, but Sabra Chief Marketing Officer Jason Levine says, “Inclusive Credit: Illustration by Tam Nguyen marketing, even under the best intentions, can find itself feeding into the divisiveness of the country.” And if there is one goal nearly all Super …of the celebrities that appeared Bowl LIV advertisers have, it’s to not alienate a particular group or political in Super Bowl LIII commercials, ideology. 25 were male while just 13 were female, according to data from To that end, those who are at least attempting to recast Super Bowl E-Poll Market Research. commercials, which historically have not been friendly to women or minorities, are doing so in the least controversial way possible--—by cushioning them with humor. Making space For its second consecutive Super Bowl ad, Olay was inspired by shows like Amazon’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” and “Fleabag” in its effort to depict women in roles typically held by men, especially in the fields of science and technology.

Postfeminist Hegemony in a Precarious World: Lessons in Neoliberal Survival from RuPaul’s Drag Race By Phoebe Chetwynd1 Abstract The popularity of the reality television show RuPaul’s Drag Race is often framed as evidence of Western societies’ increasing tolerance towards queer identities. This paper instead considers the ideological cost of this mainstream success, arguing that the show does not successfully challenge dominant heteronormative values. In light of Rosalind Gill’s work on postfeminism, it will be argued that the show’s format calls upon contestants (and viewers) to conform to a postfeminist ideal that valorises normative femininity and reaffirms the gender binary.

  • Drag Queens During Super Bowl

    Drag Queens During Super Bowl

    Urgent Message From One Million Moms: Drag queens to make historical debut during Super Bowl LIV The NFL and Fox are set to make history this year by airing a Super Bowl ad that features drag queens. It’s will be the first commercial of its kind in Super Bowl history, and One Million Moms is asking that it be removed from the advertising lineup immediately. An ad promoting drag queens is not what we had in mind when urging the NFL to keep the Super Bowl LIV commercials and halftime entertainment family-friendly. The Sabra Hummus ad features drag queens Kim Chi and Miz Cracker, former contestants on RuPaul’s Drag Race. One is snacking on hummus while the other is trying to fit a football helmet over his perfectly teased hair without causing helmet hair. The tagline: “Hair We Go 02.02.20.” Sabra Dipping Company LLC is choosing to push an agenda of sexual confusion instead of promoting its actual product. The PC-inclusive ad blurs the biological distinctions between male and female. Normalizing this lifestyle is contrary to what conservative, Christian parents are teaching their children about God’s design for sexuality. Thanks Sabra! Now parents have to explain to their confused children! The NFL has not been very adept at dealing with controversies, and this year is no different. Please sign our petition to the NFL and FOX requesting Super Bowl LIV be kept suitable for all ages, since children will also be watching the game this Sunday, Feb. 2. To Take Action, sign the petition to the NFL and FOX urging the Sabra Hummus drag queen advertisement be canceled and removed from the Super Bowl commercial lineup immediately.

Drag Race continues to become more profitable and successful by the year and arguably shapes cultural ideas of queer performances in manifold ways. This project investigates the impacts of exploitative labour practices that emerge from the show, the commodification of drag when represented on screen, and how the show influences drag and queer performances off screen.
