Boom! Columbian Vice President slams Kate Moss…

A Colombian advertisement campaign against cocaine has singled out Kate Moss for criticism. Last year the model was fired from a number of high-profile contracts including Burberry and H&M after pictures were printed in a British newspaper which appeared to show her snorting the drug.
But following a stint in rehab she has risen back to the top of her profession with new contracts and a recently-announced a deal to design clothes for highstreet favourite TopShop.
Colombia’s vice president, Francisco Santos, said that he found her comeback “baffling” and accused her and other coke-snorting celebrities of fuelling his country’s drugs problems.
“We need to tell Europeans that that line of coke they snort is tainted in blood,” the ad campaign, which does not feature Moss, warns. Santos launched the campaign under the banner “The cocaine curse”.
“To me its baffling, that somebody who helps cause so much pain in Colombia is doing better than ever and winning more contracts than ever,” Santos told the Associated Press news agency.
Moss has not responded to the comments.
