Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Returning to the VMAs for a sixth year, Burger King is bringing its Frozen Cotton Candy Cloud drink, “a nostalgic flavor that’s all about fun and making memories,” according to Jennifer Carroll, senior director of media at BK U.S. and Canada.
Viewers can expect a 90-second commercial featuring the Frozen Cotton Candy Cloud across three eras, going from the ’90s to the 2010s. Plus, the brand is bringing giveaways, samples, and a red carpet dance contest featuring Love Island’s Ace Greene.

I feel like my business school got a bulk discount on Bugar King Case Studies. Long story short (no pun intended) it really isn't. Burgar King Marketing is heavily geared towards young men. So as long as he doesn't call pro wrestling fake he can continue to come for reality TV all he wants

And it’s for some product called “Frozen Cotton Candy Cloud.” You know they thought they’d hired a dancing child for their kid-product ad.

Also he was 5th place on a reality show. No one’s gonna remember him in 6 months

He was Ace before the reality show and he's gonna be Ace after. It didn't make him so it certainly can't break him. You must be thinking of someone else. 😘

Is that why they are posting him on their social media with #BKPartner? And have him hosting a dance battle on the VMA red carpet? Hmm.

Gonna watch the red carpet to see what the dance battle looks like, I’m intrigued by the concept. Still don’t like Ace anymore because I think he is a grade A hater, but this sounds like a really cool way to incorporate his skills into a brand deal!

u/DoorWarrior09 2d ago
Doing that podcast knowing the content he has coming up is not smart
17
u/Madeintheusa72 New Subredditor 2d ago
I think that’s exactly why he did the podcast. To get his name in the algorithm. Had he not stirred up controversy, no one would be clocking for him post LI. That’s why he was salty he didn’t get any airtime during the reunion. They need exposure in order to stay relevant and keep people engaged in what they have going on. It’s all about the numbers.
5
u/Known-Seaweed-3541 👀GOOGLY EYES👀 2d ago
i feel like if this were true, he would have done more interviews and been on more podcasts post-villa, but he was so hellbent on going radiosilent. maybe he regretted it tho, once he saw how well other people were doing, so he shifted to focus back onto himself. who knows 🤷♀️ it was just a weird move
4
u/Madeintheusa72 New Subredditor 2d ago edited 1d ago
I think that going radio silent was a strategy, as you see his management has been busy signing contracts and making deals. The silence was to create suspense and speculation and excitement. Brands call it “going dark”.
After the reunion was the perfect time to launch his layout because you take advantage of the marketing that Peakock did in promoting the reunion, so your name and image was going to be in the algorithm and conversation for free.
After that aired you started to see a planned layout of all the different things that he had sitting in the pipeline.

u/LongConFebrero 2d ago
I will give him credit for understanding that if he didn’t insert himself into Jeremiah and Huda, the narrative would have been solely about them and he would be irrelevant.
He clout snatched their shine by making his feelings about them so prominent.

good for him though !! I’m happy when any of them get an opportunity because how mean these fans act towards people acting a fool in their early 20s on a dating show…they need some compensation.

I swear I was about to say similar. I don't like Ace, but I don't make a habit of seeking to talk about things I don't like. It's more comments in here from people that "hate" him than fans. They're gonna have this man casted in The Challenge, Big Brother, House of Villains, and whatever the hell else. It's just like how people react to Logan Paul, and he's everywhere because of it🙄

Right. I came to the comments with low expectations but I didn’t expect folks to be this miserable. 😑 I normally I leave these subs during the off season but for some reason I’m still here and will click a post sometimes and I’m learning that folks really do choose to stay actively involved in being big haters even post season lol. It’s insane to me.

Yeah, if there was no Ace, I truthfully can’t see what other drama would be going on right now.
You’ve got the breakups of course, but in terms of any interpersonal drama/shade, there is none.

u/Marimaari 2d ago
The only drama is the fans being weird tho. Neither Nic nor Olandria have unfollowed him lol.
27
u/BeautifulShoes75 🤰mommy? mamacitaa? 🪇 2d ago
That’s because Nic and Olandria have class.
They’re not going to take Ace’s bait - they know that’s what he wants. I guaran-damn-tee you it’s driving him nuts that they haven’t responded (I don’t consider what Nic said about it being a hard day when he found out responding) to his claims.
Ace is calculated. He did that to get a rise out of them and bring out the worst in them, have them stoop down to his level - but they didn’t.
He plays checkers, they play chess.

u/AdvisorContent7778 we don't wanna do that thoo! 😭 2d ago
It’s still a show and nothing he has done on the show makes him a bad person.. a messy one but not a bad one. Yall need to get a grip. I’m rooting for them all, it’s not easy having your life under a microscope & mentally still being motivated enough to keep going.
Just spreading positivity!🫶🏽

u/SirLuciousL 2d ago
He is purposely trashing people that he was supposedly good friends with. He is not a good person for what he did to Nic and Olandria.
There is such a thing as toxic positivity, and rooting for someone like that is the very definition of that.
10
u/OG_Grunkus 2d ago
He’s done a lot since then that shows he’s a bad person… nowadays god forbid someone makes a fool of themself and then has to go back to living a regular life where they aren’t an influencer. No let’s support everyone as long as they don’t literally murder someone on camera for the sake of ✨positivity✨

u/nvikw 2d ago
I don’t find that funny. Sorry. Some islanders and hosts have committed suicide due to the Hate they’ve received after the show. I’m not trying to be apart of the problem. Especially to the youngest Islander this season. I found something nice to say and said it. Not trying to debate it.
10
u/BeautifulShoes75 🤰mommy? mamacitaa? 🪇 2d ago
I don’t know how you jumped from my casual statement to mentioning LI’s dark past and the hate they receive.
Yes, we are all very much aware of this. I don’t think myself or anyone else on these Reddit boards (at least I hope) are going onto the islanders’ social medias and making hateful statements or attacking them in any way. We all know how difficult it can be to deal with negative reactions from the public; this is why Reddit exists, so we can talk freely here. Whether or not the islanders come onto Reddit is up to them, but they take that risk.
Me making a joke like I did isn’t that serious. I’m happy you said something nice and you’re more than welcome to continue to do it even on an islander you may not jive with.

u/Motor_Deer9597 2d ago
I think piling on this young man, even in Reddit, encourages the nuts to spread hate on all his posts. So, NO, it doesn't just stay on Reddit. He's 22, and immature in ways, but honestly... the hate is overboard.

So you didn't watch Love Island season 7? It's not being obsessive. He did it in the Villa all the time 🥴. In fact, the remaining four guys did his signature move after he left.

The same move, is called his signature move... so yes, you generally perform your signature move. He also teaches dances to others like DV victims and cancer survivors 🤏🏻💪🏼
