In an attempt to get publicity, self-proclaimed ‘Internetainers’ Rhett and Link have received a lot of attention for their latest YouTube commercial ‘Black and White People Furniture.’

The video for North Carolina-based furniture shop The Red House is more a satirical examination of racial relationships than a furniture sales commercial. Rhett and Link's ad has gone viral with over 1 million views in less than a month.

Rhett and Link are also known for their other mega-popular videos, such as 'Fast Food Folk Song,' ‘Sham Wow Song,’ ‘Phatdippin Rap,’ and the 2007 hit ‘Facebook Song.’
