No, see's a caucasian. The music is an old Peggy Lee song from the 1940's. 
I actually don't mind this ad, so far.....they'll probably play it to death though.

Wait a minute.....I didn't see this version on the telly!Wink

Her name is Cyrina Fiallo and she is getting a lot of commercial gigs lately.

The first ad I remember seeing her in, was in one of those America's Best Eyeglasses commercials with Norm MacDonald as the talking owl...



Apparently she had done some prior work but after the AB ad, she started getting jobs with bigger companies.

Here's a list of her ads on iSpot.tv (link)

Funny how she all of a sudden grew a large mole on her cheek.  Not there in her American Best Eyeglass ad.

Alrighty then, it's a parody. Nobody noticed the 'Let's f*ck' message?  Here is the real commercial.

OK but they got her made up as an Asian and that dude is certainly Asian. Remember her Subaru commercials now.

If you say you LIKE Asian women, it's not racist.

I noticed the parody message, but since Jimmy answered the OP's query as to whether she's Asian, I didn't say anything.  Tongue  I've seen the real commercial too many times.  Sleepy  To me it's just another promotion of the interracial couple trope that's been going on for a long time now.  Sleepy

Interracial couples have been around for many decades in the UK, it doesn't bother me an iota.

It doesn't bother me, either.  It just seems so PC-driven.  Something that companies would never have done a few years ago, they've all now decided to do (since that Cheerios commercial a few years back)---and we, the viewers, are not supposed to take note lest we want to be called racist.  It's kind of "the elephant in the room".

Gotcha, Thor. Very good point, as always.

The young lady does have a mole on her cheek, perhaps she had some make up to cover it on the eyeglass ad. I don't like when makeup artists do that sort of cover up stuff. She's a lovely lady, and just as Cindy Crawford never covered her famous mole, this lovely lass shouldn't as well.

If you like 'em, they're "beauty marks".  If you don't, they're "moles".

Interracial couples don't bother me per se, Jimmy.  It's like Thor said.  Before the bandwagon, it was verboten to suggest people of different races got together to make a couple.  The I Love Lucy marriage on TV and real life of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz was somehow overlooked because Desi was Hispanic.  It wouldn't have been acceptable if he were black.  Then we got the rainbow coalition, which showed all races getting together.  Then the couples, married or not.  It is just a stupid PC-thing now to show how progressive and diversified companies want to appear.

I've noticed they like to show a lot of white male-black female couples.  In real life, that's pretty uncommon.  It's usually a black guy with a white female.

Since when have commercials become known for depicting the world the way it really is?

Since never, that's when.
