2 weeks ago'Gay vague' Super Bowl ads show progress (& pullbacks) in LGBTQ+ media representation - LGBTQ Nation
Before LGBTQ+-themed commercials became common during the Super Bowl - from lesbian weddings for Volkswagen and drag queens for Sabra hummus, to gay dads for Coca-Cola - there was Gay Vague. Back in 1997, when comedian Ellen DeGeneres changed TV history and came out as gay on her sitcom and in life, I wrote in Advertising Age how Volkswagen (VW) ran a commercial with two guys who pick up a used chair to take home together.
