Frito-Lay, the parent company for Tostitos, made a smart move with their most recent commercial, which brought attention to their spicy habanero chips. They decided to cast two of Hollywood's funniest people: Kate McKinnon and Dan Levy. In the ad, McKinnon, best known for her stint on "SNL" and starring roles in numerous comedies, is featured alongside Levy, whose most iconic role was as David Rose in "Schitt's Creek" (via Variety). The two actors know how to bring the laughs, and laughter is certainly the name of the game in their Tostitos ad, called "One Upper." In it, the duo take turns one-upping each other about how they would describe the spiciness of the habanero chips, using both verbal and physical representations, including McKinnon popping and locking, and Levy going to the floor with (an attempt at) a split (via YouTube).
Fans are loving the McKinnon and Levy duo, not only because they're both so darn funny, but because they're both openly gay (via Queerty). One Twitter user commented on this fact, writing: "Someone at Tostitos, probably: 'Yeah, I just don't think enough gay people are buying our chips.' Kate McKinnon and Dan Levy: 'Say less. We got you.'"
Another Twitter user really hit the nail on the head with a tweet that read, "Okay, but that Tostitos Kate McKinnon and Dan Levy commercial is funny! And also gay. So I love it."
