Sparkly Tribute Commercials

Michael Jackson MTV Ad is a Humorous Teaser

Michael Jackson tributes are a dime a dozen right now. Everyone is doing something or saying something that tries to expresses their feelings at his loss. The MTV Video Music Awards are presenting a tribute to honor him, and the Michael Jackson MTV ad for it goes beyond anything words can say.

The Michael Jackson MTV ad is set on a busy New York street, a cab driver and his fare notice that a sparkly glove falls onto their windshield. Then another, and another, until the sky literally rains Michael Jackson gloves. It is a moving, and slightly humorous teaser for the tribute.

Check out the video for the ad itself.
