MADONNA ADVERT ESCAPES CENSORSHIP
Pop superstar MADONNA’s controversial advertisement for clothing giant H&M has been given the green light by British television censors.
The commercial, which sees the singer observing a young girl getting whipped and stripped by two men, was accused of encouraging paeodophilia by the U.K audience.
But the watchdog Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) dismissed the claims, insisting the commercial was "artistic".
They also said the actress in the commercial is 24-years-old and insist she is not dressed in the style of a young girl.
However, the ASA agreed the advertisement would not be broadcast during children’s television programmes.

Madonna’s an evil old ghoul. She ought to be tied up in her ugly so-called fashions and dumped into the ocean.
