Looks like Young Thug borrowed CoverGirl’s slogan for his new album, and the cosmetics company wants no parts of it.
Young Thug released a video snippet for his “Easy Breezy Beautiful Thugger Girls” album this week and the title is a play on the “Easy, Breezy, Beautiful, CoverGirl.” Many reviews have described the video as disturbing. In a nutshell, the clip depicts some type of crew initiation. A woman is shown leaving the gym only to be assaulted by three masked women who later take her bruised and unconscious body to a home and duct tape her.
CoverGirl caught wind of Thug’s project and denounced any ties to it. “CoverGirl was not contacted by Young Thug or any parties regarding his original album title,” they said in a statement. “The album is not aligned with our values at CoverGirl. Violence and abuse are unacceptable behaviors. We do not support the use or association of our iconic slogan, ‘Easy, Breezy, Beautiful, CoverGirl ‘ with Young Thug’s video, album or promotional materials.”
Do you guys think that Young Thug might be taking things too far in this clip? Do you think it could possibly make CoverGirl look bad?
