I wish D&G (Dead&Gone) will disappear from the world soon as the ethics, the morals, and the social values in this world could be risen up higher at least one more level and the world will be more beautiful.

Not the video,this!!!

Absolutely stupid reaction. There is nothing wrong with that D&G ad. Cute Chinese model, nice video.

Interesting, since China is one of the most racist countries on the planet. They do ads in blackface; they openly tell black candidates for ESL teaching jobs that they are not wanted due to their race; they see darker skin as inferior....Pot meet kettle.

This is not just about the racist promotional video. This is about Gabbana insulted Chinese people and Republic of China. Please gather all the facts before publicly posting an article!

hey bricks, guess who´s biting Apple now; forget Buffet or Zaraman. Son of a cuban...BERZAS. RED FRIDAY indeed. +84 tax havens incorporated (Delaware sucks)

No one can take a joke nowadays; everything has to be racist or an insult to someone.

So now Dolce & Gabana are racists? Good Lord.....
