An Indonesian cigarette company has pulled its sponsorship of a Kelly Clarkson
gig in Jakarta after protests from fans and anti-smoking groups. Before the
announcement, she said she would perform despite the criticism. Clarkson said
in her blog she had not known adverts featured a logo for local cigarette brand
LA Lights, adding she refused "to cancel on my fans". The promoter
of the 29 April gig said "final agreement" had been reached with tobacco
Djarum to terminate the deal. After the gig sponsorship emerged, anti-smoking
groups in Indonesia and the US accused Clarkson, 27, of being a spokesperson
for the tobacco industry. Writing in her blog, the first American Idol winner
rejected protests from fans and anti-smoking groups saying she was being used
"as a political pawn". "My morning began with finding out that
I am all over billboards, TV ads, and other media formats alongside a tobacco
company who, unbeknownst to me, is sponsoring my Jakarta date on my current
tour," she wrote. She said she had not been told of the sponsorship, was
not a smoker and was "in no way an advocate or an ambassador for youth
smoking". "Unfortunately, my only option at this point was to cancel
the show in order to stop the sponsorship." But she could not "justify
penalizing my fans for someone else's oversight", she added. Tobacco advertising
is allowed in Indonesia, where cigarettes sell for around $1 (65p) a pack.
