Smut site Pornhub has made a tasteless John Lewis-style Christmas advert
Ad shows several people who are by themselves on Christmas Eve tune in to x-rated footage online to curb their loneliness
PORNHUB have released a shock John Lewis-style advert for Christmas, which shows lonely people across the country tune into x-rated footage on Christmas Eve.
The explicit site, which is the largest porn video sharing website on the internet, released the tasteless ad dubbed a "unique take on the traditional holiday commerical" on YouTube.
The 'Lonely Night' clip is filmed in the style of a classic Christmas ad and includes a lonely old man who looks suspiciously like the popular character who lived on the moon in last year's John Lewis advert.
Set to Christmas classic Silent Night, it shows several people on Christmas Eve looking sad at the prospect of spending the night before Christmas by themselves.
But soon we see them light up as they take out their phone or turn on their computer and click onto the PornHub website.
It finishes with Santa and his reindeer shooting across the darkened sky above the happy customers' lit up houses, before wishing viewers to "have yourself a horny little Christmas".

Pornhub confirmed the characters "might seem familiar" - because they decided to "pay homage to some of the most popular, and lonely, characters from last year's Christmas ads".
The x-rated site took inspiration from last year's John Lewis advert with a lonely elderly man looking up at the moon.
It also used a character similar to Justino the Janitor, who spent his Christmas Eve working in a mannequin factory in an advert for the Spanish lottery.
The clip even features a mischievous looking cat, thought to be inspired by Sainsbury's offering last year which featured children's book favourite Mog.
The video is a hit with over 30,000 views in just two days, but not everyone who watched it is happy with it's message.
One slated the ad, saying "F*** off and stop stealing Christmas. Christmas IS NEVER AND WILL NEVER about this. SHAME ON YOU PORNHUB"
Another added: "this is kinda sad. we are choosing an easy fix to feel good for a few hours followed by regret and shame"
However some viewers love it, with one saying "Pornhub always makes the best ads!"
Another commented: "I guess me and this video have something in common, great video, one of the better Christmas commercials I have seen so far, no one understands how it feels to be lonely, you understand tho pornhub".
Pornhub's Vice President Corey Price said: "“We wanted our Christmas campaign to become a hallmark of the holiday season for the whole family.
"The commercial is a Christmas tale that takes place in a “magical” miniature city where some of its inhabitants, for one circumstance or another, are stuck spending Christmas Eve all alone. "Whether they’re working the late-shift, stood up for a Christmas dinner, at the dorm studying for exams, or have missed the last train home; Our protagonists are having a pretty bad night.
"Up to this point we could be watching a classic Coca-Cola or John Lewis holiday commercial, that is, of course, until a Christmas miracle happens and Santa saves them from the blues with the one thing that can truly cure a lonely night: Pornhub Premium."
Last year Pornhub were slated for their controversial 'Premium Gifting Service' ad, which featured a lad giving his sad-looking granddad a Pornhub Premium giftcard for Christmas.
It urged viewers to give "the most touching gift of all" in a sick stunt which disgusted thousands of people online.
