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 ofĂ‚Â 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. 🙂
