Kathy Griffin's Squatty Potty Deal in Toilet After Photo
Posted in: Uncategorized
Kathy Griffin’s latest commercial endorsement deal lasted less than three weeks. She’s been dumped by Squatty Potty thanks to publication of a photo showing her holding a wax likeness of a severed, bloody head of President Donald Trump.
The image was posted in a video shown on the website of celebrity photographer Tyler Shields on Tuesday. After it provoked the predictable outrage, Squatty Potty issued a statement late Tuesday that advertising featuring Griffin that went up earlier this month has been suspended.
“We were shocked and disappointed to learn about the image Ms. Griffin shared today,” said Squatty Potty CEO Bobby Edwards in a statement. “It was deeply inappropriate and runs contrary to the core values our company stands for. In response, Squatty Potty has suspended its ad campaign featuring Ms. Griffin. We have acted swiftly and decisively to demonstrate our commitment to a culture of decency, civility and tolerance.”
