Procter & Gamble, the parent company behind CoverGirl, chose to pull Taylors add for CoverGirl NatureLuxe Mousse Mascara after the National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus determined the ad was misleading, the NY Times reported. The ad featured the singer posing and showing off her peepers with very plump lashes but also, at the bottom, in small print read, Lashes enhanced in post production. The rule is that advertising has to be truthful, accurate and not misleading, Andrea C. Levine, a lawyer who worked on the case, and the director of the National Advertising Division, told the newspaper. What the picture says, the small type cant take it away. This isnt the first time an ad featuring a celebrity has drawn the ire of an advertising watchdog organization.
