Hamsters Slim-Down and Spiff Up for Kia Soul with the Help of Rock Paper Scissors
Rock Paper Scissors teams with David&Goliath to create “Totally Transformed,” a new :90 for the all-new 2014 Kia Soul. In this irresistibly adorable spot, we see the famous hamsters jog on the beach, hit the gym, get their “fur” done, and roll up to the red carpet looking like Hollywood hot-shots. RPS Editor Angus Wall takes viewers along for the ride on the furry friends’ total slim-down makeover, reflecting the sleeker, sexier, and more sophisticated look of the 2014 Kia Soul. The spot features Lady Gaga’s new single, “Applause,” and premiered following her performance on Sunday’s VMAs.
