Wannabe Kanye West? You'd better pick up a pack or two of “Be Kanye†tablets, as seen in the above “Be Kanye†infomercial.
The parody ad is actually part of Absolut Vodka's 'In an Absolut World' campaign. In it, he promotes a Viagra-style pill that promises a few hours in an Absolute Kanye-style world.
The spoof infomercial stars Kanye himself, proving his fame don't hold him back from goofing around a little, a trait that makes fans feel more connected with him. By poking fun of himself, he may be able to make up for all the people who have long detested him for appearing to be egotistical.
