Beyonce Knowles is among the category of girls who love to create things “hotter”. The singer’s perfume commercial (it came out last year) became so seductive that it was even banned from being broadcasted in the day.
The video begins with an image of Beyonce Knowles lying naked. The video was deemed “too sexually provocative” to be seen by children. Therefore, the commercial can be seen only after half past seven in the evening on the British TV.
However, manufacturers of the perfume claimed the commercial was in tune with her ‘sexy chic’ imagery and not in any way indecent. Moreover, they argued that the imagery was less sexual than what is routinely seen in music videos, particularly those featuring U.S. rappers and bikini-clad girls.
Nevertheless, the manufacturers argue the video is aimed at adult audience of music programs. However, complaints have come from the parents whose children saw the ad while watching family programmes.
Anyway, this story is unlikely to affect sales of her debut fragrance Beyonce. On the contrary, it will enhance her earning potential.
And do you think the advertising is “too sexually provocative”?
