Butts are having a bit of a renaissance lately, aren’t they? Weight Watchers has gotten in on the trend, and not in the way one might expect from a brand more associated with shaving pounds off your posterior than loving it the way it is. It’s part of the company’s efforts to focus on the fact that its weight loss programs are about you being happy with how you look and feel, not just being skinny. And so, with help from Wieden + Kennedy, Weight Watchers has produced a new spot that not only forces you to remember how long your rear end has had your back, but that all the work you put into getting your rump in the same shape it once was might not be as necessary as having a forward attitude about your behind.
