The TV advert has been banned;


And here's the picture



I'll have to say it's probably the nipple.

Hmm yeah there's not a lot of bannable substance in there... it must be the tiny flash of nipple.

P.s. I often wonder if things that get banned often end up doing better anyway, because so many people end up watching them on the internet...

It does have a lovely sensuality to it, but it would definitely be the fact that Eva Mendes is topless in it that got it banned.

And yes, Tania, I suspect a lot of companies would go out to make adverts in order to get them banned. It can't be easy to get market penetration in this day and age, but putting notoriety around something is certainly going to help. After all, if it wasn't for the fact that this was banned how many of us would have willingly watched it?

Yes that was my thought exactly - you watch it just to see what all the fuss is about, if it weren't banned that wouldn't be the case.

Nipples are against the Youtubes terms of service.

Heaven help it if word gets out that people have nipples. Anarchy would reign.
