After last year’s viral sensation, Go Daddy tones it down

Go Daddy hit gold last year with its Super Bowl ad, which featured supermodel Bar Refaeli kissing a chubby nerd but also a cameo from Go Daddy girl Danica Patrick. This year, they toned it down by more than just a notch.

Above is the Go Daddy commercial that aired during last night’s Super Bowl XLVII. It’s called “Bodybuilder” and features an army of ripped men – and Danica Patrick! – running down the street towards a tanning salon.

“When Selena wanted to pump up her tanning business, she turned to GoDaddy Get Found. Now, new customers can find her business online and Selena's store is golden,” the description of the ad reads.

Obviously, while I’m sure most of the men featured in it are as bulky as they appear, Danica’s muscles were added in post-production. She is in excellent shape, but she’s not really that muscular, so don’t let your eyes deceive you.

Compared to last year’s Super Bowl offering, which I will include below for reference, Go Daddy certainly mellowed out in 2014, didn’t they?
