Carl’s Jr. brings back bikini model ads

Carl's Jr. Has released a new advertisement featuring TikTok influencer Alix Earle, showcasing her in a revealing outfit at a car wash while promoting their 'free hangover burger' offer after the Super Bowl.
The advertisement has sparked backlash from advocacy groups, including the Parents Television and Media Council, which criticized the ad for its 'sexually suggestive imagery' and urged families to avoid it.
Carl's Jr. Previously moved away from sexualized advertising in 2017 after facing criticism, but has now returned to this controversial strategy with the new ad.
Marketing experts suggest that the return to provocative advertising may reflect a shift in societal norms and attitudes under the new administration, as noted by Tim Calkins from Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management.
