The popular Swedish clothing retailer’s new ad features beautiful Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana in several bright colored swimsuits which highlight her deep dark Brazilian skin.
The Swedish Cancer Society blasted H&M claiming the ads create a “deadly standard of beauty” that unduly influences young people to tan:
Every year, more people die in Sweden of (skin cancer) than in traffic accidents, and the main cause is too much sunning.
Regardless of how the H&M model got her tan, through sunning or a computer programme, the effect is the same: H&M tells us we should be very tan on the beach.
It is sad to write this, but H&M will through its latest advertising campaign not only sell more bathing suits but also contribute to more people dying from skin cancer.
Hold up… wait! So now being “too dark” is a problem? I guess that’s why they lighten African-american skin in advertising campaigns. You know… so as NOT to influence tanning. Right? I’m so confused right now.
I’m even more confused that H&M issued an APOLOGY! 😯

Comedian Martin Lawrence was spotted leaving Mastros in Beverly Hills last night (May 10, 2012).
The funnyman left the eatery solo but ladies (and gentlemen) please note that Lawrence is currently ‘single again and back on the prowl‘!
Martin separated Schmicka Gibbs, his wife of two years on April 24, 2012 and filed for divorce the very next day in L.A. County Superior Court citing “irreconcilable differences.
The couple were reportedly together off and on for 15 years prior to tying the knot in July 2010 and released a joint statement about their split:
“Out of love and respect for one another we will continue to remain friends and raise our two beautiful daughters together.”

The cover features a young mother breastfeeding what appears to be a 3-year-old son, standing on a chair in front of her.
While the image is quite provocative, it’s clearly meant to create dialogue about the touchy subject of breast feeding or more specifically “attachment parenting,” which has become an even touchier subject.
Time Magazine photographer Martin Schoeller photographed four families from across the country who practice this method of motherhood. Using religious images of the Madonna and Child as reference, Schoeller captured each mother breast-feeding her child or children.

The album, which achieved Platinum status, featured hits like “Happily Ever After” (which reached #3 on the R&B charts and #15 on the Hot 100) and “Faded Pictures,” (released April 20, 1999), which featured R&B singer Joe and reached #3 on the R&B charts and #10 on the Hot 100.
For those of you who may not know… the video for “Happily Ever After” featured a young up & coming singer by the name of Beyonc? in the video as Case’s love interest.
I say all of that to say…
Case is another singer who’s followed his musical path and has transplanted in the “A” ?AND I was lucky enough to receive a phone call from the singer who gave me a personal serenade of my favorite song.
