Y'all gotta read misia, if you don't already - she gets the good shit. Like this Compari ad that will almost certainly never reach U.S. screens but is... curiously titillating. Tell me if you spot the plot before they give it away ;)

That is a really HOT ad!!!!

The first surprise I spotted right off, but the second surprised me.

Yum!! LOVE that lipstick smear!

I ditto Gigi ... spotted that the pursuer was female, but not that the quarry was male. Loved it! :-)

Yep. I spotted it pretty much right away. At least with the girl. It took me a bit longer with the guy because he 'tarts up' very pretty and they were a bit cagier about how they photographed him. I knew both of them before the reveal tho. There are certain elements of bone structure that no amount of makeup will hide.

I'm with JLS -- spotted the female in drag, but thought the dress was female, too.

I've never understood, though, why lipstick smears are thought sexy... can anyone explain?

I'm with you and almost everyone else, it seems - I got the "guy" right away, but not the "girl" - he was just TOO well done!

Re: lipstick smear - not a particular "thing" of mine but I'm guessing the smudged lipsticks hints at what the wearer might have been up to, the delicious spoiling of perfect makeup, etc...

"Perfect" is pristine, cold, distant, untouchable. The deliberate smearing of the lipstick, with sustained eye contact, is an "I want to be messy ... with you" message.

Oh! I see...

Ab-so-lutely!!! Catch the blatant, smoldering look in his eyes when he does it... very, very hot. Whooooo!
