Rihanna slams snapchat over insensitive ad #comments
You're referring to the recent controversy surrounding Rihanna and Snapchat!
Yes, Rihanna took to Instagram to express her outrage and disappointment over a Snapchat ad that many people felt was insensitive and trivialized domestic violence. The ad, which was created by a third-party developer and not by Snapchat itself, featured a game called "Would You Rather" that asked users to choose between punching a pregnant Rihanna or leaving her unharmed.
Rihanna was understandably upset by the ad and took to Instagram to share her feelings, saying:
"Shame on you. That's so amazing. You spent money to animate someone being punched in the face for the sake of your brand launch - this isn't about my life and experience. I never asked for this. Take that down. Now. You spent money to animate someone being punched in the face for the sake of your brand launch - this isn't about my life and experience. I never asked for this. Take that down. Now."
Rihanna's post sparked a wave of outrage and criticism towards Snapchat, with many people calling for the company to take down the ad and apologize for its insensitivity. Snapchat eventually removed the ad and issued an apology, stating that it was "unacceptable" and did not align with the company's values.
The incident highlights the importance of being mindful of the impact that our words and actions can have on others, and the need for companies to be more thoughtful and considerate in their marketing efforts.
