Pepsi spokesperson Nicole Bradley has issued a statement disavowing any roll in the releasing of the footage of Michael Jackson‘s head in flames. In case you thought that Pepsi had decided to honor the late pop icon with unseen footage of his scalp burnt off. In a statement to EW, she says:
“We don’t know how the footage became available. Twenty-five years later, we’d question why anyone would want to share such frightening images. It was a terrifying event that we’ll never forget.”
Nicole: they would want to share such frightening images because US Weekly will pay a lot of money for it. This drives a massive amount of traffic to their site, where you must first watch a commercial for the HD Flip Camcorder. I just realized how appopriate that is. It’s almost like suggesting you keep one of those handy little gadgets on you at all times so as to never miss a chance to film a celebs in pain.
