Bad girl image affecting Rihanna? Singer dropped by Nivea

Seems her bad girl image is affecting her brand. From smoking ganja publicly, repping thug life, partying hard, posting uncensored tweets etc. Yesterday one of the brands she endorses, Nivea, dropped her as their ambassador. The head of Nivea’s parent company Beiersdorf revealed to German Media that they would not be re-signing Rihanna because she doesn’t fit their family image.
'Rihanna is a no go. I do not understand how to bring the core brand of Nivea in conjunction with Rihanna. Nivea is a company which stands for trust, family and reliability.'
And you know how this works sometimes. When one starts, the others follow. But I'm sure Rihanna is probably somewhere screaming 'tohellwithyourcontract' :-)

She wasn't dropped Linda. Her contract ended last year! She was only signed on for their 100 anniversary. She's making too much money to worry about a new boss trying to announce his arrival!#phuckhisopinion

YINOTINTO said...

lmao. Riri dont worry, playboy will sign u on.

Maybe it will make her tone down her image. As a singer, there are several young children looking up to her; as such she needs to develop herself as a role model. Drugs? Thats a no no; especially as a performer.

@Deejah.. I concur jare.. Nivea is a family product & it is expected of them to protect thr imagine. Rihanna can't fit in.. I mean not anymore. It is just a logical thing.. Just like gold circle droped 2face. Rihanna shd pls get her jerks right. #skikena.

Huh? Wha? Associate the indomie brand with Charley boy TVcommercials, Radio Jingles and billboards...and listen up for the public outcry by mothers and schools connected to the brand,

Case 2 associate charley boy with the HARLEY DAVIDSON bikes and watch brand sales go up!! My 2 cents.

Sugar Girl said...

Maybe a condom seller will use her....she doesn't suit ANY family brand. No sentiment! Brand ambassadors as the name implies live the brand. This is not a local brand so they have to maintain a high standard
