Nasty Advertisment

I was walking to the grocery store today. On the side of a liquor store (one that also has signage of bible quotes… wierd right?) was a liquor ad that was so nasty I had to stop and get a closer look.

I am a photographer, I’ve shot nudes. I understand that sex sells. I’m OK with nudes used in perfume ads for example, because that’s more of a lifestyle product. But a nude lady in a liquor ad? On the side of a building?

Well why don’t you just take a look.

There’s more on the liquor company’s website , both print ads and a flash thing involving the model’s nipples. I guess the idea is if you show a bottle of this spirit to a woman she’s going to rip off her clothes and have a writhing orgasm on the floor for your viewing pleasure.

Also ridiculous is how terribly the bottles have been photoshopped in.
