Mo the meerkat fired by Vodacom, but now starring in an insurance ad in the UK
Posted on 13. Mar, 2009 by Jonathan Cherry in Advertising
The TV show 'Meerkat Manor' has done more for the international public image of meerkats than American Idols has done for Simon Cowell.
The African rodents are back on the commercial brandwagon with what seems to be a rather well-received, slightly stupid ad for insurance.
Well, as long as it's keeping them in the lifestyle they've now become accustom to, it's all good.
Nice touch that an actual www.comparethemeerkat.com website was also created.

That meerkat is not as annoying as Mo. Although I like the Russian accent so I could be baised. Or it could be that he isnt “gengster”
