According to reports, Justin Bieber and
Katy Perry’s faces are banned from UK. Not that they aren’t allowed to set foot
in UK but their Proactiv campaigns have been banned after an anonymous
whistleblower alerted the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) in UK of an
alleged misleading claims of Bieber and Perry on their ad.
ASA said that the product is unsuitable for
UK consumers as the UK version contains a different active ingredient to that
of the US product. They even said that the stars had only used the said UK
version of the product for just several weeks and between one and three years
before the ads appeared.
“In that context, we therefore considered
the claims of continued use had not been substantiated. We concluded that the
ads were misleading. The ads must not appear again in their current form.”
Geez. That’s indeed a big slap to Justin
and Katy’s acne-free faces.
