The online community is abuzz since yesterday about the said fastfood chain cameo appearance of Jollibee in the latest episode of the American hit TV series Glee.

===================================

May 19, 2010 – 1pm UPDATE

The video of Jollibee appearing in Glee is now out proving the authenticity of the photo above. Apparently, it appeared much more than once.

Here is the embedded video from Yahoo Video

==================================

Jollibee is considered to be the biggest fast food chain in the country. It has also branches / stores in other countries including the United States of America which makes the cameo appearance not impossible.

I checked out the sources of the photo and it led me to this (with a more specific post here) and this.

Aside from the question of  the photo’s original source, its authenticity is more important. As this blog pointed out:

“But is this for real?” – quoted from Technogra.ph

If it is, it can be an effective viral marketing strategy for Jollibee (like what’s happening now) especially that the said American TV series Glee is a big hit nowadays to the younger generation both locally in the Philippines and abroad.

On a completely off-topic side note (except that the two mentioned fast food chains are industry competitiors), NomNomClub has a new McDonald‘s ad on the header and below this article. Feel free to check it out especially if you are a CATS musical fan looking forward to watch the Cats Now and Forever Musical here in the Philippines.

So how about you, what do you think? Is this screen shot of  Jollibee in Glee TV series that is currently circulating around the web for real?
