Comments Thread For: Photos: Pacquiao Stars in Hennessy's Massive Campaign

Never said it wasn't ok for a christian to drink. But for a person to come out and say I am personally no longer drinking for whatever reason and then do a liquor campaign that is weird.

Did Pacquiao say he was never drinking again, or was it more the fact that his drinking got out of hand, e.i. drinking when in training camp.

I really don't understand why people make a big deal about endorsements and PPV numbers and whatnot.


With that said, Erykah Badu is in the same campaign as Pacquiao. She is known to be vegan and doesn't drink alcohol. If you actually paid attention to this Hennesy campaign, you would find out that the people promoting it actually inspired the drinks. Pacquiao inspired "The Smash" drink while Erykah Badu inspired "The Music Icon", which would explain why they were asked to promote it in the first place.

What is the White Rabbit thing about?

Sounds a bit like Alice and Wonderland stuff.

I believe he was quoted as saying he was "going to stop drinking" I saw nothing that specified that he would only stop drinking while training. If he meant only for training camps then he should have said that. If that is what he meant then its not weird for him to be promoting that drink.

I have no idea. As soon as I saw people here picking apart his statement about not drinking alcohol, I was like "WTF Erykah Badu doesn't drink." Then I did a bit of research.

Anybody can do just about whatever they want when it comes to what they endorse. I just think its weird to endorse something that you don't do.

I'm actually more shocked to see people here actually talking about liquore. At least that's a good indication that you're not all minors here

With that said, I can go for some drinks right now.

Oh and when it comes to people living in the Philippine provinces and countryside, nobody really gives a shit about all these Pac endorsements, since they still can't afford it. There's really nothing to do in the countryside except for chilling with your buddies drinking, singing karaoke, and fucking and making babies (probably why he wants to ban condoms lol).

Commercials and endorsements are generally frowned upon because they're considered as "selling out", which is why many celebrities prefer to do them overseas. I'm pretty sure many of them don't actually use their products either. You would go to Japan and find Brad Pitt in commercials, which you don't see here. Katie ****ing Holmes is the face of a Filipino clothing brand, which I doubt she can even pronounce. Manny has been on multiple alcohol commercials, especially San Miguel which Flash Elorde has endorsed as well. Please just get over it.
