Advertisers Musn't Display Unsafe Dancing Practices
This advertisement, airing in the UK and promoting Sure Girl deodorant, was yanked form airwaves when the Advertising Standards Authority there received 21 complaints.
Viewers weren't upset about young girls dancing to a sexually provocative Pussycat Dolls song — they were upset the girls were dancing in an old VW van without seatbelts.
Nevermind that Unilever insisted the ad was filmed in a stationary van, and that the movement of the vehicle was from the girls dancing. Because who doesn't climb into the back of their parents VW while it's sitting in the garage to bust out to some pop singles?
