FKA Twigs Accuses UK Ad Authority of 'Double Standards' Over Calvin Klein Ad Ban

The singer's ad was banned for 'objectification and inappropriate targeting', while similar ads featuring Kendall Jenner and Jeremy Allen White were not.

  • FKA Twigs has criticized the UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) for banning her Calvin Klein ad, accusing the agency of 'double standards'.
  • The ASA defended its decision, stating that the ad was banned due to objectification and inappropriate targeting, not because of race.
  • Twigs' ad showed her partially exposed, while a similar ad featuring Kendall Jenner was allowed to continue.
  • Another Calvin Klein ad featuring actor Jeremy Allen White, which is considered equally provocative, has not been banned, further fueling the 'double standards' debate.
  • Calvin Klein has a history of controversial ads, some of which have been banned in the past.
