# Celeb Commercial Spoofs The Brett Favre 'What Should I Do?' Ad Pokes Fun at the Iconic Athlete By Jordan M | Published 2011-01-20 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brett-favre-what-should-i-do References: [theinternettoday.net](http://theinternettoday.net/videos/brett-favre-what-should-i-do/) & [youtube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POyFvDgV2cU&feature=player_embedded) This Brett Favre 'What Should I Do?' spoof parodies the football hero's celebrity status in the form of a [mock commercial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mint-mobile-mintfomercial). In the spirit of the Earl Woods/Tiger Woods [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scary-good-campaign) commercial following his fall from grace, the parody features a not-so-contrite Brett Favre questioning the audience about how he should proceed following his latest brush with public scandal. Overall, the parody is decidedly acerbic and is a sharply written satire by Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda that targets not just Brett Favre, but the [cult of celebrity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meal-diamond) as a whole. Perhaps publicity itself is, more than Vicoden or anything else, the most addictive drug of all. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Celebrity Parodies:** Creating satirical commercials that spoof popular celebrities can attract a wide audience and generate viral buzz. - **Cultural Commentary:** Producing witty and sarcastic content that critiques the obsession with celebrity culture can resonate with viewers and spark conversations. - **Mocking Scandalous Figures:** Developing spoof commercials that humorously critique controversial public figures can provide a comedic outlet for discussing societal issues. ### Who This Affects Most - **Advertising and Marketing:** Agencies can capitalize on the popularity of celebrity parodies by creating unique and memorable campaigns for their clients. - **Entertainment:** Film and television production companies can explore opportunities to produce satirical content that mocks public figures and celebrity culture. - **Social Media and Online Platforms:** Online platforms can leverage the viral potential of celebrity parody videos to drive engagement and increase user traffic on their platforms. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Lighthearted Football Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7-stages-of-defeat.md) - [Comedic Christmas Parodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reinfell-ad.md) - [Celeb-Hosted Super Bowl Parties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rob-gronkowski.md) - [Humorous Snack Commercials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ritz-salty-club.md) - [Athlete-Backed Beverage Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tailgate-crashers.md) - [Humorous AI-Forward Spots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/act-like-you-know.md) - [Nostalgic Infomercial Grill Spots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bud-light-x-traeger-grills.md) - [Drug-Themed April Fool's Gags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innocean-berlin.md) - [Reactive Fan-Based Football Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coors-light-coors-light.md)
