Clinton's still got it, KFC's cheeky co-ed ads, and hormone pills cause kidney stones

Bubba's still got it. At a recent rally in West Virginia, an elderly woman fainted in the middle of a speech by former president Bill Clinton. Clinton proved he's still a bit of a ladykiller when he quickly asserting that "she'll be fine," before joking that "believe me, at my age, rarely does a lady faint on me." The audience cheered as Clinton exclaimed "the doctor says she's ok!"

If you liked the warm, antique-drenched aesthetic of Wes Anderson films like The Royal Tannenbaums or Life Aquatic, you'll love his new ad for Stella Artois. It's a smorgasbord of stunning interior design with just a dash of cheeky whimsy thrown in for good measure.
