Sexy viral video shows off Wii Fit assets; Nintendo denies involvement
- June 11, 2008 00:00 AM PST
Nintendo on Tuesday denied involvement in the "Wii Fit Girl" video, which has been viewed more than 2 million times, after an advertising company posted it on YouTube two weeks ago.
Gutierrez was reportedly "in the doghouse" after posting the video
"This has absolutely nothing to do with Nintendo," a company spokesperson told the Daily Mail. "Nintendo did not create it and were not aware of it until it was brought it to our attention."
The video, entitled "Why every guy should buy their girlfriend Wii Fit," stars Lauren Bernat being filmed by boyfriend Giovanny Gutierrez, both who work in advertising. The connection, not to mention the video's carefully worded title, led many to believe that Nintendo was behind the video.
Despite this, Gutierrez, who resides in Miami, claims it was a personal video experiment using his employer's YouTube account, and that he received no compensation other than his girlfriend's "15 seconds of fame."
