Virgin Mobile Canada Celebrates Birth of Jesus Breaker-Style
Virgin Mobile Canada likes to think a great battle took place between the breakdancing angels, shepherds and wise men of the east, in the barn where Jesus was born.
And we don't know why, but now we like that idea too. Does this mean John Travolta is God?
Back on-topic, the ad -- put together by zig with Dave Jones from Hill & Knowlton and PR Works -- is a far cry from Virgin's belief-neutral Christmahanakwanzakuh effort.

I'm a big fan of zig. They've done groundbreaking work in the past and they have my respect.
Not sure what happened when they let this one leave the building. There's nothing to this spot. Break dancing? I fail to see why Virgin would want to attach itself to such a trend. What's worse, they failed to mention their brand until the 1:35 mark.
Must be the holidays...

- Angela, you're the Queen of Twisted Videos!!! Love this one. Freshening up a tired old tale is always welcome, and these guys did a nice tongue-in-cheek take on the whole thing. If ya gotta believe, you might as well smile about it.
