Our latest post: Terry Crews Can Shave Anything With His Old Spice Razor, Including Tiny Terry Crews ift.tt/1eL7yLM By David Griner It’s been almost a year since we’ve seen Terry Crews psychotically scream his way through an Old Spice sales pitch. So, to make up for lost time, we get twice the Terry in one spot. “Get Shaved in the Face” is the newest oddity from Wieden + Kennedy, which first tapped Crews in 2010 for a series of over-the-top spots directed by comedy duo Tim & Eric. In this installment, Crews faces the existential dillema of whether to shave off a facial hair that appears to be his micro-clone. While Isaiah Mustafa is still the most iconic Old Spice guy, Crews seems to be the brand’s personality of choice over the long term. He’s gone from advertising Odor Blocker Body Wash to shaving cream—and here he’s fronting Old Spice’s newest foray into grooming hardware. Thanks to a partnership with Braun, you can now buy an Old Spice Hair Clipper ($49.99), Beard & Head Trimmer ($49.99), Wet & Dry Shave & Trim ($59.99), Shaver ($69.99) and Wet & Dry Shaver ($79.99). They’re apparently the perfect devices for committing anthropomorphic follicide—you know, in case that’s an issue for you.
