Hmm, so the yellow balloon is for the opening credits and the blue is for advertising merchandise

And one balloon makes you a doll

Doesn’t do anything at all”♪
 
Actually Jefferson Airplane & My Little Pony go surprisingly well together

If it’s the balloon thing, innocent play always comes first. Interacting with them in itself is not the fetish. That would depend more on how the individuals perceive / treat it.
 
As it is, it’s just a tame bit of eye-catching party-tastic fun (that some might like more than others) and probably not meant to imply anything else.
 
If it’s the TF thing, then I have no idea? But I’m pretty sure the balloon bursting thing is just done for an easy screen-wipe transition, just like in the show’s intro. “Tons of fun!”

I love how she looks slightly shocked when the balloon fills the screen, almost as if she’s thinking “What? But the balloon is supposed to break and then we cut to Rarity tossing her mane!”
