As much as we love a good Jimmy Kimmel "Celebrities Read Mean Tweets" segment [1], we have to admit that the world would be a better place if people were nicer online. And we're not alone: that's precisely the message Priyanka Chopra is trying to spread in her latest Pantene ad.
In the video above, the 35-year-old actress and brand ambassador agrees to read comments left on her social media accounts. At first, she reads negative feedback such as, "I would call Priyanka fish-lipped, but I don't want to insult the fish." (Not cool!) Then, she moves on to more positive comments such as, "My daughter says her two heroes are Michelle Obama [2] and Priyanka Chopra."
Later in the video, the philanthropist and actress says, "Being harsh shows insecurities. Being harsh shows weakness. I definitely think gentle is so much stronger." That theme ties in with Pantene's ad campaign of #GoGentle, which urges users to be kind when faced with negative or challenging situations.
