First Look: Levi Johnston's "Protection" Ad

Last year, Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin became the poster children for teen pregnancy. Now the Alaskan boy-next-door turned international newsmaker jokes about using protection in a new ad.

In a campaign for Wonderful Pistachios, Levi — with his bodyguard/publicist Tank by his side — swaggers toward the camera wearing a green Alaska shirt and jeans. While photographers snap photos of him and scream his name, the father of Sarah Palin's grandchild cracks open a nut and pops it in his mouth while a voiceover says: "Now Levi Johnston does it with protection."

Although he doesn't utter a single word, this marks Levi's commercial acting debut. Since Levi split with the failed vice presidential candidate's eldest daughter earlier this year, he's made no secret about his desire to become famous — even signing on with a Hollywood agent. He also posed shirtless with his son, Tripp, in GQ magazine.

What do you think of Levi's ad? Tasteful or tacky? Would you buy Wonderful Pistachios after seeing it?
