Nivea And Pepsi In Hot Water Over Controversial Ads

Kendall Jenner stars in Pepsi's latest ad and she could be regretting that decision this morning.

The ad has received a serious amount of backlash online.

It shows the supermodel joining a group of protestors who are marching close to where she is taking part in a photoshoot.

Tensions are high as the protesters come face to face with the police.

Kendall then walks across the divide and hands a riot officer a can of Pepsi, who then opens it and takes a drink.

The crowd then cheer and smile.

People have been quick to criticise the ad as tensions surrounding protests are still high in the US, however Pepsi have defended the campaign saying, 'the ad reflects people from different walks of life coming together, and we think that's an important message to convey.'

So it appears the ad will stay where it is.

Nivea, on the other hand, have been forced to remove a controversial ad which included the slogan, 'White Is Purity.'

The post was uploaded to Facebook mainly aimed at users in the Middle East.

Nivea have apologised and added that diversity and equal opportunity are important to Nivea.
