Subject: 80s insurance commercial.. "Grooowwwwwing Upppp"

Written By: BigBrother on 12/17/09 at 2:33 pm

Hey all- I'm trying to track down this commercial shown *constantly* in the mid 80s, at least in Southern California..

It had a little girl dressed like Madonna in Material Girl.  She's applying lipstick and being asked a few questions by a narrator.  He finally asks her something like "is there anything you're afraid of?" And she goes "Growwing Upppp".  It was really cute and popular at the time.

I think it was an insurance commercial.

So, anyone?

Thanks a lot- do you remember it though?  I'm amazed no one has responded here or anywhere else since I swear, around 1985, this commercial was on CONSTANTLY.

That line "Growwwwing Uppppp" was like a catchphrase practically...

Extensively.  Nada.  If you wanna give it a shot, maybe using your own techniques, that'd be great!!!
