From the Department of Things I Didn't Know
(Which, incidentally, is a really big department.)
"The idea was to improve the KGB's image..."
ReplyDeleteOkay then. That's some major league DNC level thinking right there.

ReplyDeleteThis goes to an old Wendy’s ad parodying a Soviet beauty contest. I couldn’t help thinking of it when I read about Miss KGB.
(There’s a psa in front of it, but you can skip after a couple of seconds).
One of my all-time favorite commercials!
DeleteThat ad is exactly what I expected to see when clicking the link.
DeleteThanks, Rebecca. Haven't seen that one before.
DeleteVeeery nice!
I suppose some of the competition involved assassination skills ..... the KGB doubtless wanted some femme fatale on their payroll.
ReplyDeleteI don't expect there was a consolation prize for Miss Congeniality?
