Disney sees red over beer ad showing 'Ho White' smoking in bed with seven dwarves: report It's not quite the "happily ever after" Disney would have imagined for its original fairytale princess. A new advertisement for an Australian beer shows Snow White in a decidedly unladylike boudoir scene with her seven dwarfs - and Disney is anything but pleased, reports Sydney's Daily Telegraph. The illustration for Jamieson's Raspberry Ale reinvents the fair-skinned cartoon ingénue as "Ho White." Disney's innocent raven-haired beauty has been recast as a bordello hustler, casually blowing smoke rings while in bed with all seven semi-nude dwarfs, who've been renamed Filthy, Smarmy and Randy. The company behind the campaign, The Foundry, says the ad is designed to show beer drinkers the fruit-infused ale is "anything by sweet."
This should be fun. I've never been a fan of what Disney does with other people's stories. Compared to what Disney did to Winnie the pooh, Ho White is almost unadulterated. Tom
There was a Playboy cartoon a while back (so I've heard) in which the prince is walking into the room where Snow White is sleeping. One of the dwarfs looks up to him and says, "it doesn't wake her up but it's a lot of fun." I'll let you imagine what the other dwarves are doing.
