Cartoon Spoofs American Apparel’s Dov Charney
Highlights of the Super News video include American model Sergio, who fictional Dov took from bus stop to T-shirt ad and half-clothed Natasha modeling a T-shirt as it lays on the ground behind her. But, in Faure-Brac’s opinion, he doesn’t think Charney would take offense. “I can’t imagine him being offended by anything so I’m betting that he loves the video. I hope he does,” said Faure-Brac. Adding, “Dov, if you’re reading this, please invite me to one of your hot-tub parties.” It’s definitely a film that makes the viewer uncomfortable on first showing and then more so when one realizes that truth is a little closer to fiction. With that said, Faure-Brac points out people approach larger-than-life figures from many different perspectives. When presented with the age old question: Is Dov Charney evil, Faure-Brac demonstrated satire doesn’t always flow from a malicious well.
