Remember when Fiji hired a model to photobomb celebrities at the Golden Globes, holding a tray of their water? That was such a cool product marketing stunt. And obviously, it went viral with the memes and massive free publicity. I think it worked because it was unexpected, visually clever, and leveraged a high-profile event for maximum exposure. What would you say was the reason for the success? Also, do you know if any other brands have copied this style? If yes, please comment their names.

it still isn't clear if Fiji actually hired her, cuz there's been a lot of back and forth between her and the company in lawsuits and whatnot. I don't know if it was a beautiful mistake for Fiji, or if the model is lying that she wasn't hired to do it. Love to see if anyone here has more details. This is from a long time ago so I wouldn't be surprised if no one remembers.

Can you imagine if this was more than just a one-off, though? Like if all companies started using human billboards at major events? That would be so ridiculous! I honestly don't remember this happening, but reading about it now, it's pretty funny.

Your mind would be blown if you learned about how fashion designers leverage red carpets at movie premieres and award shows 😮

Seems like the lawsuit was more focused on the use of her likeness after the fact, not for the event itself. I had completely forgotten about this! Nothing happens by accident out there. Tons of planning and coordinating. Nothing comes to mind lately. A lot of the ‘high-profile’ events are extremely disconnected for the regular consumer now, more than the usual, anyway.

OMGSH how did I never hear about this? This is literally such a great idea and I don't know how I missed it but its also hilarious. I have to agree with you that it was a very clever idea and not something many would even think to do.
