SL, Coke, and Avril Lavigne?

Here's a bit of machinima from the premiere of Coke's new CGI commercial 'The Happiness Factory'. The actual commercial is embedded within the machinima, which concerns itself with the red carpet premiere of the commercial in SL. Now, interestingly, the video claims that this event was attended by Avril Lavigne, but since this is a professionally-produced machinima by Rivers Run Red, it's doubtful that this represents reality. Is there any footage of the real event?

Regardless, it's a slick piece, and the actual commercial is fun. But, wait ... didn't Coke decide to pull out of SL?

(Thanks, Fizik!)

2. I'd just like to point out that My Coke Rewards scammed me of a $500usd prize in March 2007. From now on, every time there is mention of Coke, I will be pointing out how they are corporate liars! They solicited my information, legitimately told me I won $500, then 10 weeks later admitted their own error.. and i've yet to hear from them again. So, anything on the net I see relating to Coke, I will post a comment similar to this.
Coke Rewards is a false fake bullshit scam. They run this on going perpetual contest that the more you drink the more you have a chance to win.... so they get you to drink and drink and drink... but when you win $500, they don't pay. I've already filed a BBB claim, and will be filing a small claims court case. I hate coke.

... by the way... did you know Aquafina is really bottled tap water?
