All I Want For Christmas is Jesse McCartney...



As the commercial begins, we see the name “Walmart“ and a woman sitting on a couch in a living room decorated with stockings, garland, and a big Christmas tree. Her son and daughter are sitting on the other couch watching a movie on a portable lap top and listening to music on an IPOD. Then the name “Walmart” is replaced with the name “Jesse McCartney” in white letters and the title of the song “Home for the Holidays.” The music begins and Jesse himself appears playing a video game on a game boy. Jesse’s vocals begin with the words “I’m gonna be home for the holidays” and his mom takes a picture with her new black digital camera, as her daughter rolls her eyes. She then asks Jesse to let the cat in. He replies “Ok, I got it mom.” He then opens the door to a mob of girls and pays no attention to them as he is immersed in his video game. The music gets louder as the girls scream and wave their hand made signs that say such things as “Marry Me Jesse.” Jesse then shuts the door and plops down on the couch next to his mom. We here him say “Oh it feels good to be home” and he breaths a sigh of relief. The phone rings and the mom answers to hear shrieks of girls. The mom hands the phone to Jesse and says “It’s for you.” Then a green checkered background appears with white snowflakes, and in white letters we see the words “Hook up your home for the holidays- Walmart.” Jesse voice fades as he sings” I’m gonna be home for the holidays.” The screen then changes to a shot of the door from the outside and we see the wreath on the door and the back of two heads. The door opens and the girls scream but stop when they realize it is Jesse’s brother.
