Don't think that was ever on American TV. It looks like it was shot maybe late 80's early 90's, and cigarette spots were banned in the 60's, I think, but definately by the 70's. That spot may have been for Europe, South Africa, etc.

In April 1970, Congress passed the Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act banning the advertising of cigarettes on television and radio starting on January 2, 1971. The Virginia Slims brand was the last commercial shown, with "a 60-second revue from flapper to Female Lib", shown at 11:59 p.m. on January 1 during a break on The Tonight Show.
