Posts with tag billboards

It's something you might expect to hear from a guy who spent the last night out bar hopping, but not from the geniuses that brought us the push-up bra. As the story goes, Wonderbra's modeling scouts interviewed the next smokin' hot supermodel of the future, but when she left they realized that they hadn't got her name or phone number. Now Wonderbra is apparently having to resort to a nationwide womanhunt for their missing model with the great rack.

For months, Wonderbra UK had been advertising an audition where they would select a model for the next year's billboard ads and breast cancer PSAs. When they narrowed it down to the lucky winner, from the more than 1,000 contestants, judges realized that someone had royally screwed things up. Apparently, the winning model's contact info had never been properly recorded. They think her name is "Kate or Katie," she's "5 ft 9 inches tall, and she's never done any modeling before." Good job guys.

The world is still freaking out after witnessing Miley Cyrus' nude shoulder blades -- which, in itself, is kind of understandable, as even non-prudish folk might balk at teenagers posing suggestively for fashion mags. But now there's news that people are raising hell over the naked backs of grown-up women -- calling them "explicit" and demanding that they be removed from public view.

This latest controversy surrounds some ads for K-Rock, a New York-based radio station, which show women with tattoos of rock bands across their bare shoulders. Offended citizens have complained to the radio station, and now the "scandal" is making headlines in the northeast. Subsequently fashion bloggers are up in arms, calling America's recent obsession with "back pornography" ridiculous and pleading with the country to chill out.

But should we? Personally, we don't see what all the fuss is about. However, you can check out the photos and judge for yourself.
