One Tree Hill’s Sophia
Bush is making news with her campaign against Urban Outfitters
Sophia
Bush loved fashion as Brooke in “One Tree Hill,” but now she is speaking out
against it. Urban Outfitter’s newest graphic tee states “Eat Less” across the
front and strategically placed on a tiny model. Talk about revolting, who would
buy this?
Bush
decided to continue to promote healthy body images for women and boycott the
entire fashion outlet. She also took some sexy pictures of her in a shirt that
says “0 is not a size.”
She
turned to her blog to discuss her issues with the “anorexia-promoting t-shirts.”
“You
should issue a public apology, and make a hefty donation to a women’s
organization that supports those stricken with eating disorders. I am sickened
that anyone, on any board, in your gigantic company would have voted ‘yes’
on such a thing, let alone enough of you to manufacture an item with such a
hurtful message. It’s like handing a suicidal person a loaded gun. You should
know better.”
Whoa,
go Sophia!
Although
I love the store so much, something like this makes me want to think before I
step foot into another store ever again. What is your opinion on this? Will you
boycott Urban Outfitters?
