What was all the hubbub about a few months ago when Rafael Nadal and Cristiano Ronaldo were spotted a club in Spain? Here’s the end product.

Nike just released its latest commercial spot for their new Mercurial Vapor VIII campaign featuring the two international sports stars playing pseudo tennis – Nadal uses his racquet while Ronaldo opts for the foot.

Clever ad. (Is that really Nadal making bicycle-like football kick dive, or a fill-in?)

“It’s the time. Want to see how @Cristiano has suffer? Watch the video!” Nadal tweeted earlier.

Later this afternoon Nadal and his racquet will square off against Andy Murray in the semifinals of the Sony Ericsson Open Miami.

We could ask that for them to become better representatives for gay community. Gay emancipation could use a boost in most country to become fully accepted.

@Sienna. You just will not stop with your snide comments. Maybe you r a lesbian ’cause you seem to know all about gay Relationships. Why don’t you go bake some dung balls with your gay partner!!

seeing these 2 successful global figures, outstanding athletes and international icons together in this fantastic ad is seemingly making the jealous haters clueless as to how to bash more and what to talk to appear better! no wonder they’re running out of ideas & talking irrelevant talks of gay rights campaigning on this forum!
