Ryan McGinley’s controversial suicide ad: Dying for attention?

03 August 2010 No Comments

Ryan McGinley recently shot a video for South Korean label, Lewitt featuring model Abbey Lee Kershaw jumping off a building. The  controversial video has come under fire on the blogosphere as some people including Coco Perez, think the video tries to make suicide fashionable. I don't agree and I think its all being blown out of proportion. Ryan did a similar video with Agyness Deyn jumping off a building in 2008 and it didn't get anywhere as much negative buzz on the blogosphere. I think some blogs are making much ado about nothing.

I think people are more sensitive to the suicide issue because of the recent high profile models such as Tom Nicon, Daul Kim and Ambrose that have committed suicide in the past year.
