There are few networks out here that are calling this Lane Bryant ad “too sexy” for TV, but why is the real question, why?
The new Lane Bryant ad stars Ashley Graham, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit first even curvy model along another curvy model, Precious Lee.

Precious is the first African-American plus-sized model to appear in an ad in Sports Illustrated magazine too. She was also the first African-American plus-sized model to make an appearance in Vogue too.
The models or actresses commercial has been said it’s too sexy for TV, but where is the too sexy part when they are kicking boxing, breast feeding, wearing their bra and panties and “rocking some jeans?”
A rep for NBC  , “As part of a normal advertising standards process, we reviewed a rough cut of the ad and asked for minor edits to comply with broadcast indecency guidelines. The ad was not rejected and we welcome the updated creative.”
And, the other network who claimed that this ad was too sexy was ABC.
The Lane Bryant campaign is simple, “what’s your body made for?”, and using the #ThisBody.

The networks didn’t want you to see this. But we do. Share. Tag. Show everyone what #ThisBody’s made for.

So, what is your body made for?
