Drug Abuse: Amy Winehouse Anti-Drug Poster Sparks Fury
on.fb.me – Facebook Fan Page! bit.ly – Click to Subscribe to ClevverMusic! Hi guys, you’re watching ClevverMusic, I’m Bridget Daly. News just broke about a poster in Switzerland that’s causing a major controversy because it uses Amy Winehouse’s image. It’s an anti-drug poster from a Swiss political party called the SVP, who created the ad in hopes to create awareness about the dangers of using illegal drugs. The poster reads: “No – to the decriminalization of drugs”, and shows a particularly bad photo of Amy from the side. The party president doesn’t see anything wrong with it either. He said, “Amy’s death put a sad reality before our eyes that other parties often forget – the harmful effects of drug consumption. We are displaying a photo that the whole world already knows. Winehouse was known not only for her songs, but above all for her drug excesses.” Seems a little harsh, and way too soon to be honest! But now that you’ve seen the poster, what do you think? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. For more news on musical artists, check out Facebook.com/ClevverMusic and click the like button. Thanks for watching!
