Delta Goodrem’s ‘bad behaviour’ in Apple ad catches eye of watchdog
Apple Entertainment has been criticised by the Advertising Standards Board for showing singer and songwriter Delta Groodrem “moving around in a motor vehicle with no clearly visible safety belt” and placing her head and arms outside the moving car.
The complaint made to the ad watchdog said “this ad does not promote safe driving” and “as a young woman who is a role model this sets a bad example and is illegal”.
How freaking ridiculous.
This ruling seems a bit ridiculous to me.. her arms weren’t even stretched out that far outside the window
I spotted this on air and was surprised it got through CAD. In fairness there was a clearly visible legal disclaimer on the TVC stating lap seat belts were being worn. Lots of our spots have failed for far more minor issues.
must be the same plebs that whinged about the Sportsbet ad
huh? this is a stupid article shes just dancing and having fun its not like shes driving and she was wearing those olden day seat belts
Harold Scruby’s fax machine has been getting a workout by the sounds of it…
That was an ad for Apple? Who knew?
fuck off
These ads perplex me. They’re in a vintage BMW that would be rocking a tape player at best. Is Delta pumping tinny tunes out of her phone or is there some bluetooth set up in the old beast?
That Delta Goodrem. She’s a terrible influence on the youngsters. And turn that music down!
The real crime in the ad is delta’s awful lip syncing to Kendrick Lamar
I think it’s a ban in disguise for terrible advertising.
Where was the agency producer?
Delta Badrem.
The ad states that she is wearing a lap seat belt. This car does not require retro fitting to a sash seat belt. The problem here is the law, not the ad.
Supposedly there was a waist belt.
