Erection '08 -- Alba Ad Invokes Change in Sex Life

An election ad featuring Jessica Alba wrapped in bondage tape was supposed to turn people on to voting. It ended up just turning a whole lotta people on. Freaky deaky style.

The ad was for "Declare Yourself," and a stylist for the PSA decided their message was best conveyed by muting Jess with bondage tape from JT's Stockroom.

If the ad inspired people to register to vote, we don't know. What we do know: People started showing up at Stockroom's store -- with the Alba ads in hand -- asking for the reusable, sticks-to-itself, I-like-my-sex-with-a-side-of-violence black tape.

The safe word is "economy."

2. This line of ads featuring Alba are all repugnant, stupid and sleazy. How desperate is she that she would allow herself to be protrayed this way? These ads weren't clever, they were cheap and over the top.

8. She can pretend she is an actress in these ads. Some serious EMOTING, tee hee. For anyone who has seen her movies, obviously she is a better EMOTER than actress.

9. Ah, how cute. She must think she is a big activist to wrap herself in tape to "inspire" us poor plebians to go vote. Wow, what a social impact she's having...

10. I am completely appalled at the context of this ad. It proves once again how many in Hollywood are devoid of moral character.

12. That is an extremely stupid ad not to mention in very bad taaste. I agree with the point she's trying to make but I can't imagine how anyone thought that was going to help. Whoever came up with that campaign should be fired and possibly the company as well.

13. She is so beautiful, but I'm sick of America entertaining the idea of voting however a celebrity votes. Matt Damon don't speak for me!!!!
