Last month, Reality Blurred reported that Apprentice 3 flunkee Kristen Kirchner would be reshooting the infamous Dove ad that had sent her packing from Trump’s boardroom. Well, she might want to pull the plug on production. While I’m sure Kristen’s anxious to repair her image — her scary, surgically enhanced image, that is — it seems as though Madison Avenue has beat her to it. Actually, less Madison Avenue and more Rue de Madison.

Mennen Sport has launched a new ad on French television featuring a marathon runner suddenly refreshing himself mid-race with a bodywash. Sound familiar? That’s because team Net Worth had the same exact concept for their Dove bodywash spot. Needless to say, when produced by professionals, the commercial is much, much better.

I’m sure Kristen will be more than happy to make a big stink about this, if only to further extend her time in the reality spotlight. In the meantime, feel free to check out both commercials.

To watch Kristen’s abhorrent version, click here. Select the “Exclusive Video” option and then locate media from week 4.

To watch the Mennen commercial, click here . The page is in French, so if you can’t read it, simply find the section labeled “Pub TV Mennen Sport” and click either “Haut débit” for high-speed connection or “Bas débit” for a low-speed connection.

Thanks to TVgasm reader Lothaire for pointing this out.

    “Needless to say, when produced by professionals, the commercial is much, much better.”

    The idea wasn’t hers. period.
    The extremely poor production? All her.

    Does the French ad redeem Kristen?
    Quite the opposite.
