Alicia Silverstone Gets Pulled
The new ads for Peta that feature Alicia Silverstone naked have been pulled from the Houston Comcast Cable Network. Alicia’s ad featured her getting out of a swimming pool without clothes.
PETA claims that Houston was chosen because it often ranks high on lists of cities with the worst eating habits. So why did Comcast pull the commercial?
A spokesperson for the cable company cited nudity in their decision to cancel the campaign, though the clips had already been paid for.
Curious Houston residents can still view the ads, online at PETA.org, according to PETA president Ingrid Newkirk.
“[Viewers can] get an eyeful, not only of the stunning Ms. Silverstone, but also of our free Vegetarian Starter Kit – chock full of delicious recipes – that will make them drool for an entirely different reason,” she said in a statement.
According to reports, the PETA ads will still run on television in Dallas.

That is ridiculous that a large city with a very progressive and multi-cultural population has allowed Comcast to pull such am important add. THEY ARE SHOWING IT IN DALLAS!
That makes us look immature and shallow. C’mon Comcast….What gives?
