CBS rejected the first two ad proposals but GoDaddy.com's latest commercial has been approved for Super Bowl XLI.
The domain registrar has three ad slots for the 2007 Super Bowl. The commercial features Go Daddy Girl Candice Michelle and includes race car driver Danica Patrick.
Go Daddy's 2005 Super Bowl ad is considered by many to be the most memorable commercial ever. The network did not allow the spot to air a second time. You can see an extended version of the commercial here.
You can watch the two rejected ads for Super Bowl XLI (and outtakes) on the GoDaddy.com website.

K-Fed's controversial Super Bowl ad
During the 3rd quarter of the Super Bowl, Nationwide insurance company will air a commercial starring Kevin Federline (K-Fed). This Super Bowl ad has already caused controversy. The commercial shows Federline perfoming in a rap video, surrounded by wads of cash and scantily clad women. Then we see that he’s only dreaming while working behind the counter at a fast food restaurant.
The National Restaurant Association has complained that the tv spot is insulting to restaurant workers. K-Fed says the commercial only makes fun of himself.
Eight bonus scenes are now available on Nationwide's website.

Memorable Super Bowl moments
The Super Bowl is the hottest advertising venue around the world. Advertisers are paying a record $2.6 million for a 30 second spot in Super Bowl XLI. Companies started planning for this event months ago and have invested millions of dollars to produce their Super Bowl ads.
A winning Super Bowl commercial can pay off greatly for an advertiser. Just ask Bob Parsons, chief executive and founder of GoDaddy.com. The internet domain registration company was relatively unknown until hitting it big with a controversial Super Bowl commercial in 2005, featuring the now-famous "GoDaddy Girl." The Super Bowl is now the primary focus of the company's marketing strategy and advertising budget.
Apple is another company with a strong connection to Super Bowl advertising. The computer company launched the Apple Macintosh personal computer with a 60 second ad during Super Bowl XVIII in 1984. Fifteen years later, TV Guide named it the greatest commercial of all time.
This year's Super Bowl broadcast should include many memorable moments. Not only on the field but also on the air during game breaks. Here's what we're watching:
HP (Hewlett-Packard) makes its Super Bowl debut... Kevin Federline makes fun of himself... GoDaddy has been approved for another ad... Snickers joins the Super Bowl frenzy... Frito Lay called on customers to submit Doritos commercials...
