A Demi Lovato album poster, which featured the singer posing on a pillow with a cross while wearing a provocative outfit, has been banned in the UK for offending Christians.
The poster, seen on multiple sites in London in August, was titled 'DEMI LOVATO' with 'HOLY FVCK', which is the name of the 30-year-old star's album written below it. The poster received four complaints that it was likely to cause serious offense and was irresponsibly placed where children could see it. The UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has now said the ad must not be shown again.
Defending the poster, Polydor Records, a division of Universal Music, said it did not believe the poster would cause serious or widespread offence. The music label told the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) that it had checked whether the poster was acceptable for display in the proposed locations before publication and was satisfied that it was. Polydor said the posters were only displayed in six specific locations in London over a four-day period and were removed on August 23.
The ASA said it would have been clear to most of those who saw the poster that the ad implied that the language it used was likely to result in serious and widespread offense and was irresponsibly targeted.
Kodi CAP (Kodi i Mbretërisë së Bashkuar për Reklamimin Jo-transmetues, Promovimin e Shitjeve dhe Marketingun Direkt) deklaroi se reklamat duhet të përgatiten me një ndjenjë përgjegjësie dhe nuk duhet të përmbajnë asgjë që ka të ngjarë të shkaktojë ofendim serioz ose të përhapur.
ASA fillimisht vlerësoi nëse gjuha në reklamë kishte të ngjarë të shkaktonte ofendim.
Për shkak se ne konsideruam se reklama kishte të ngjarë të shihej se i referohej një sharjeje që shumëkush do ta konsideronte fyese dhe ishte shfaqur në një medium të pacaktuar dhe vend publik ku mund ta shihnin edhe fëmijët, ne konsideruam se reklama kishte të ngjarë të rezultonte në një shkelje të rëndë dhe të përhapur dhe ishte shënjestruar në mënyrë të papërgjegjshme. Ne konsideruam se imazhi i zonjës Lovato e lidhur, ndërsa shtrihej në një dyshek në formë kryqi, në një pozicion me këmbët e saj të lidhura në njërën anë që të kujtonte Krishtin në kryq, së bashku me shkrimin “Holy F***”, e cila në atë kontekst ka të ngjarë të shihej se lidhte seksualitetin me simbolin e shenjtë të kryqëzimit dhe kryqëzimit, kishte të ngjarë të shkaktonte ofendim serioz për të krishterët. Reklama nuk duhet të shfaqet përsëri në formën për të cilën është momentalisht nëse nuk ribëhet në mënyrë të përshtatshme.
The ASA ruled that the ad should not appear again in the form complained of, adding:
We told Universal Music Operations to ensure that their ads do not cause serious or widespread offense in the future.
This comes after two-time Grammy Award nominee Lovato announced her return to the recording studio in December, just three months after the release of Holy Fvck, her eighth studio album.
