NEW SEARS COMMERCIAL DIRECTED BY PAUL HUNTER?
I just saw a new Sears commercial that uses Christina
Aguilera's new song Come On Over as the theme. I
am almost 100% sure that Paul Hunter directed this commercial, because
it basically uses the sets and everything from the Paul Hunter-directed
video for the same Christina Aguilera song, same look, same everything.
(By the way, Sears is co-sponsoring Christina's new tour) So I'm
going to credit it to Paul Hunter unless someone tells me otherwise.
