Hmmm, hardly beautiful… especially when violence against women is so
prolific. One woman is raped every nine minutes in Britain; two women
are killed every week in England and Wales by a current or former
partner… and one in four women will suffer domestic abuse at some point
in their lives.
It’s not the first time violence against women has been used to promote products. Last year, Tyler Shields (who recently set fire to a Birkin bag in the name of art) photographed Glee's Heather Morris dressed as a housewife and sporting a black eye. And another controversial editorial showed 15-year-old Hailey Clauson being ‘strangled.’
There is no explanation in the Bulgarian magazine for the most recent controversial images. But under the editorial it reads, ‘Recommended Parental Controls: pictures are not recommended for persons under 16 years. And for the faint hearted.’
Which begs the question, why put them in the magazine at all?
