Balding Jason Momoa Takes Off His Muscles In A Freaky Super Bowl Ad

Balding Jason Momoa Takes Off His Muscles In A Freaky Super Bowl Ad

ADVERTISEMENT

Beloved actor Jason Momoa, whom we all know from Game of Thrones and Aquaman, has the internet’s attention once again. And this time, it’s not for his long, flowing locks or his bulging muscles. In fact, it’s the opposite!

“Home is where I can be myself.” That’s what Momoa says in a hilarious (and slightly disturbing) Super Bowl ad while he’s taking off his muscles and his wig. The video, quite naturally, went viral. And it’s good to see that Momoa’s still Momoa, even without his rocking body.

Scroll down for the full video and to read how people reacted to Momoa’s ad. Oh, and if you’re still in need of some Momoa goodness, I suggest you have a read through Bored Panda’s previous articles about his amazing photoshoot with Esquire, as well as about the time he dressed up as pink Elvis. Also, be sure to check out our post about how a man bought a 6 million dollar ad to thank the vets who saved his dog’s life.

Momoa’s ad is funny and a bit disturbing

Momoa’s full of charisma even without his muscles. But some of his fans couldn’t handle how weird he looked in the ad.

After all, we’re used to seeing him as the mighty Khal Drogo and the powerful Aquaman on the screen. Not as a scrawny middle-aged weakling who has trouble lifting even small weights.

Something you might not know about Momoa is that he played Conan the Barbarian in the 2011 film. With muscles like his, how could he not?

And if you’re wondering about the manly scar near the actor’s left eyebrow, Momoa got it when someone hit him with a glass at a Hollywood bar back in 2008.

Funny ads aside, most of us are probably looking forward to Momoa’s next acting project. Well, the good news is, he’ll be reprising his earlier role as Aquaman in the sequel. The bad news is, we’ll still have to wait a long while for the movie: it premiers only in December of 2022.

Some fans of the actor couldn’t believe what they were seeing

Storytelling, journalism, and art are a core part of who I am. I've been writing and drawing ever since I could walk—there is nothing else I'd rather do. My formal education, however, is focused on politics, philosophy, and economics because I've always been curious about the gap between the ideal and the real. At work, I'm a Senior Writer and I cover a broad range of topics that I'm passionate about: from psychology and changes in work culture to healthy living, relationships, and design. In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature. However, you can also find me enjoying a big mug of coffee with a good book (or ten) and entertaining friends with fantasy tabletop games and sci-fi movies.

I'm a visual editor at Bored Panda. I kickstart my day with a mug of coffee bigger than my head, ready to tackle Photoshop. I navigate through the digital jungle with finesse, fueled by bamboo breaks and caffeine kicks. When the workday winds down, you might catch me devouring bamboo snacks while binging on the latest TV show, gaming or I could be out in nature, soaking up the tranquility and communing with my inner panda.

It kind of disgusts me that people don't like that ad. It is a natural human body, get over yourselves. Why are you scared?

OMIGAWD, I couldn't stop myself from thinking, he reminded me of my first real boyfriend and how freakin' CUTE he was! Yes, he was a skinny, no muscled little nerd with long hair and an adorable smile like Momoa's. Rest in peace, Theo: April 3rd, 1968--December 11th, 2018. He fought a rare cancer and won over twenty years ago, and the bastard came back for a second engagement... >:-( F**K cancer.

I was so upset I have no idea what product this was for. I just keep having flashbacks. Is there a support group for this? There should be a support group for this. This is why we can’t have nice things.

I don't like it. Seems to be promoting the anti-patriarchy and anti-alpha-male ideas.
