Since being named the sexiest vegetarian of 2007, Kevin Eubanks has clearly embraced the prestigious title. So much so that the Tonight Show bandleader decided to write, direct, and star in a new ad for us that boasts about the benefits of a meat-free diet.
Kevin’s ad is just one in a series of vegetarian testimonials—others feature Casey Affleck, Forest Whitaker, and Kevin Nealon—but Eubanks’ hilarious video has a certain something not seen in the others.
Maybe it’s the giant strawberry costume he’s dressed in. Maybe it’s his reference to wanting all his organs to work just fine (because of the connection between eating meat and impotence). Or maybe it’s the date he has planned with pineapples, melons, and other fruits. OK, I think it’s all of the above.
