Summary

FKA Twigs is speaking up and speaking out! The Calvin Klein ad that the singer posed for last year is being pulled across the pond. The UK’s Advertising Standards Authority says it’s just too provocative. In the "controversial" pic, FKA Twigs exposes a lot of skin and is wearing nothing but a denim shirt. (Gasp!) But the “Cellophane” singer is calling out the decision to take down her ad as a huge double standard. I mean, take a look at Kendall Jenner’s ads for Calvin Klein - which are absolutely fine according to the ASA - and decide whether you think she’s got a point.
