Swedish clothing retailer Hennes and Mauritz has decided not to use Kate Moss in its forthcoming advertising campaign, after photographs of the supermodel snorting cocaine appeared in the British press last week.
"After having considered the situation, we have decided to cancel the planned campaign," said Liv Asarnoj, press officer at HM.
"It is not compatible with our clear opposition to drugs," she told Expressen.
Moss was due to model a range of clothes designed by Stella McCartney in preparation for the collection's launch in November. But images of her, taken in a London recording studio, dividing a pile of cocaine before snorting line after line of the drug through a rolled five pound note put the company off.
HM says it will go ahead with the advertising campaign but will replace Moss with another model.
"I can't say how the new campaign will be at the moment - I don't want to go into details," said Liv Asarnoj.
Like this one.
UGH! So they're real? I thought for sure I saw some heavy handed photoshop at work, but there are some on that site that are obviously genuine.
I followed a link from Drudge and ended up at contactmusic.com
The chyron there said "Chanel Drop Moss".
Actually,
I've tried to see if some of the 'starving model' pictures were photo-shopped, I've been on Snopes etc and I can't find out if they are.
However, there are plenty of other 'model' pictures that aren't PS'd to make the poing.
Not sure if I buy this. :o)
Maybe you can be too rich and too thin...
Man, I was going to get some lunch until I looked at that anorexic page...
Who would want to have sex with a bag of bones?
Drug-free Ann is available as a spokesmodel.
I was wondering how long it would take for pictures of that particular bag of antlers to show up.
That website made me want to cry.
Poor Kate... cry me a river... NOT!
Now they got her on camera for even more proof of what I`ve been saying for years; That Castro for years has been buying the support of these incredible razor sharp ay-holes with cocaine. I mean really, just what were Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell doing visiting Castro of all people in 1998? The Hollywood morons who visit and praise Castro reads like a who`s who of cocaine abuse in Hollywood, Oliver Stone being one of the worst. Lock this bimbo up and throw away the key, she`s just one more in a long line (pardon the pun) of Commie whores for coke which makes it that much worse.

Havana, February 23(RHC)-- Cuban President Fidel Castro met with top British models Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss on Sunday. The two internationally-known models are in Cuba to pose for photographs as part of a publicity campaign for the French design company Yves Saint Laurent.
Following her meeting with the Cuban leader, Naomi Campbell told reporters that Fidel Castro is -- in her words -- "an inspiration for all the world and a very intelligent man." She said that during the meeting, the Cuban leader briefed the two top models on his personal life and talked about their work.
Campbell said that meeting Fidel Castro was "a dream come true" and that the Cuban president was pleased to hear that Campbell and Moss were in South Africa last week and met with Nelson Mandela.
The things Commie whores will say for cocaine!
Some are fakes.
