PR Oopsie Daisy: Shrek Fashion Spread

With the release of the fourth “Shrek” movie the anticipation begins to build to see these well known cartoon characters on the big screen again.  Voiced by A-List celebrities including Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas, Mike Meyers and Eddie Murphy this movie is definitely a favorite for the kiddies and the kiddies at heart.

However with a recent fashion spread featuring “Donkey” and other characters in the men’s magazine VMan some parents might not be so happy. DreamWorks gave VMan permission to use their characters in the fashion spread featured below, which according Fox411 they claim to be regretting.

In the spread Donkey is snug-a-bug next to a sultry lingerie model with an onlooker who happens to be a shirtless man.  Ideally this entire spread is not meant for a G-rated audience but with kids being so tech-savvy these days they might get a surprise when they do a search for “Shrek”.

Jo Piazza of Fox News.com interviewed New York Post film critic Kyle Smith.  Smith says “The photos are not only bizarre, but they also show a desperation by studios to toe the line for publicity”.
