K-pop star Rosé sparks Twitter storm as fans say she looks 'too young' to be in an 'oversexualised' commercial for jewellery brand Tiffany's - despite being 25
Angry Twitter users criticised the tone of the advert as well as the choice of casting, suggesting that Rosé - who was raised in Melbourne but is now one of the biggest stars in the booming K-pop scene - looked 'like a teenager', despite being 25.
Other Twitter users suggested the ad looked 'tacky', 'cheap', 'oversexualised' and even 'creepy', none of which was true. 'Tiffany used to be class. Now it markets trinkets by having a women eagle spread on a chair. This is so out of touch for a once iconic classy brand,' snapped one critic. Fans of Rosé defended the singer against her mostly Western naysayers, and corrected some of the more inflammatory comments by stating her real age of 25.
Rosé signed on as the new global ambassador for Tiffany & Co. last year and has starred in several campaigns for the high-end brand since then.
