    New Brooke Shields VW commercial

    According to Brooke Shields and VW the reason the Birthrate in the U.S has shot up is because.....people want German engineering. Right, Still it's a pretty witty ad enjoy

    Brooke is lookin' pretty hot in the ad.

    Knowing it's a rebadge of an American van it's funny and upsetting.

    She looked VERY fine in I saw with her talking about a nearby pregnant couple as if they were not there......I think she looks better now than ever. The front of the car looked better than I thought it did in still photos.

    Fertility is at a 35 year high because our blessed nation has moved past the me-first Boomers, and Gen X is getting the job done. The sooner they all die off, the sooner this country can return to normal.

    Of course, Brooke Shields should know a little something about fertility:
    Among the celebrities she dated were Ted McGinley (her high school prom escort), Dean Cain (her Princeton roommate), John F. Kennedy Jr., Michael Bolton, Prince Albert II of Monaco, George Michael and Michael Jackson (his date to the 1984 Grammy Awards). Shields was married from April 19, 1997, to April 9, 1999, to professional tennis player Andre Agassi; their marriage was annulled. Since April 4, 2001, she has been married to television writer Chris Henchy

    I'd appreciate it if you weren't excited about the die off of my parents. Thank you.

    I like Brooke Shields. She's aging very well. Can't get the commercial to work right now, but I like it already.
    It's been swell, but the swelling's gone down.

    Yes she is, but I out of actresses who never played a major role but everybody knows them, I prefer Morgan Fairchild:
