A St Tropez campaign fronted by Kelly Osbourne has lost its support from the Prince’s Trust after a parental pressure group said it was sending harmful messages to young girls.
A video on the tanning brand website shows Osbourne relating the benefits of spray-tanning, having experienced it on the set of the US reality TV programme Dancing with the Stars. Osbourne’s claims that this affected her self-confidence by making her appear slimmer were challenged by Pink Stinks, a group which battles the negative impact the media has on young girls, who feel Obsourne looks unrealistically airbrushed.
However, St Tropez has a long-standing relationship with The Prince’s Trust and will continue to work together with this high-profile charity to raise funds for disadvantaged young people.
