I mean...that's a total Hitler stache in MJ's new Hanes ads, right?
Further analysis after the jump.
I don't agree with the kind of demo-targeting Hanes is doing with that style but I suppose it is an under-served market. I don't understand marketing sometimes.

It is not a Hitler mustache.
It is obviously a Charlie Chaplin mustache. Don’t get Michael going on his love of the comedic genius. He would often stay at bars long past last call on the road practically holding a Luc Longley or Cliff Levingston hostage as he deconstructed such Chaplin classics as “The Gold Rush” and “Modern Times.”
As he once told BJ Armstrong on a team charter from Washington to Orlando, “If you’re not crying at the last few frames of ‘City Lights,’ you don’t have a heart. Not to mention ‘The Kid.’ The pathos in ‘The Kid’ kicks my ass worse than I kick Craig Ehlo’s ass.”
Now, finally, the master of the hard wood is able to pay tribute to the master of silent comedy in an ad pushing cotton underwear. Beautiful.
