More gum! Though this stuff (unlike Maurizio Savini's art, November 29/08 blog) looks very chewed up and spit out. 'Chew Them Up. Spit Them Out' is in fact the byline for the ad shown here and I can't believe someone on Paris Hilton's team didn't point out that a campaign picturing her with this caption may not be so hot.
The ad for www.dose.ca is from a celebrity gossip mag I picked up at the movie theatre. I can't deny it is eye-catching and quite an accomplishment if it is in fact made of gum (not a computer generated image). But was team Hilton really so distracted they did not notice it kind of looks like Paris's brain is falling out? And again, how is it acceptable to be shown in an ad with a caption that says 'Chew Them Up. Spit Them Out'. Even if it is a [pretty cool] portrait in chewing gum.
I'm guessing this is a case of no publicity is bad publicity.
