Jay McCarroll has sunk to such a level that he has to bumble around on stage looking foolish while pretending to care about his “inspiration.” Sad that Kelis could be so unaware that this might not be the best public appearance. And sad that a worthy charity comes with such unfortunate baggage.
Have you ever seen a woman more out of touch with branding, culture, or cool than the Ronald McDonald House rep? The marketing firm that sold them this fashion show campaign idea should be shot. It makes McDonalds and everyone associated with it look low rent. If you are going to dabble in the medium of fashion for credibility at least let the fashion professionals do their job and make it work. Don’t control it for your corporate image and then wonder why it doesn’t play well.
