Robin Thicke "Blurred Lines" Gets Safe For Retail

Popular NSFW Video Becomes A Safe Advert

RadioShack Beats Pill #UWANTIT Commercial

This might be a shocker, but the nude version of the Robin Thicke "Blurred Lines" video featuring Pharrell, T.I. and many models is much more popular than the original clean version.

But, that doesn't mean you can't spin-off yet another version that's actually a commercial. This version ropes in the least sexy store you can imaginee — sorry, Radio Shack — and some Beats Pill speakers. The tawdry freespirit remains intact, with lots of stroking and playing with the engorged Pills as if they were, well, you know...

It's also an interesting example of a NSFW piece of content being repurposed as a branded spot. Or, maybe I just want another excuse to link to the video...
