Life is Short, Have a Safe Affair

If I were in charge of the Ashley Madison ad campaign, I would build Fatal Attraction (hit 1987 movie starring Michael Douglas and Glenn Close) into the next commercial.

Apparently cheating statistics went down significantly after this movie was released in 1987, because men were scared of picking up a psycho.


The ad would go something like this:

- play the Fatal Attraction trailer (click photo right)

- and then say something like "Don't take any chances. Life is short. Have a Safe Affair." or "Play safe, with like-minded adults at Ashley Madison."

Life is Short Have an Affair video

Life is Short, Have an Affair: Family values advocates are up in arms and ESPN has yanked this ad from what they call an 'infidelity matchmaking service'. Watch the banned ad:






The Ashley Madison Agency, calls itself "The World's Premier Discreet Dating Service" with almost 3 million "like minded members".

This is the second controversial ad from the Ashley Madison Agency. The first was this billboard in West Hollywood: Life is short, have an affair.
