knew it was patrick wilson, did not know it was claire danes.
oh, you might want to take down the link and just tell people where it is cause the site is a bad word on the boards.

Posted: 3/11/07 at 10:57amI love that commercial. Last night, directly after that ad, a promo for Ugly Betty came on with Jesse Tyler Ferguson. It was exciting.

Posted: 3/11/07 at 11:03amI can hear people all over the country (outside of BWW) going "who is that guy with Claire Danes". Quirky spot, like most of Gap's commercials.

About as good a dancer as Christina Applegate.

Posted: 3/11/07 at 11:09amlol- at first I was asking myself, "Who is that girl dancing with Patrick Wilson?" haha- I'm sure more people are recognizing him lately though because of "Hard Candy" and "Little Children".

Posted: 3/11/07 at 1:18pmFoster, Danes is way, WAY better a dancer than Applegate! Think about it -- she's barefoot. Not in boots...

- That's just cold-hearted. Applegate performed the role on a broken foot, that's why she had boots - for health reasons. Why are people so catty?

Yes, her foot was broken..
Are they called boyfriend pants because they ripped right off of him? I don't think I'd wear those in public...But it's nice to know that if I saw someone cute wearing them, I could go right up behind them and just tear them off...

Regarding Clare Danes' dance skills:

I didn't see it, but I would guess that she's better than Christina Appelgate.

I love this commercial. It's so adorable.
I didn't know it was Patrick Wilson until about 15 seconds into the ad though, right about when it was over. I was like, 'Is it...is it...Patrick? No...Wait...IT IS!!! YAY!!!'
I didn't know it was Claire Danes either until the second time I saw it and my roommate pointed her out. I think I may need glasses. :)
