An offensive nose job love song - Fail!
I realise this title looks like I've just thrown some unrelated words together, but it actually refers to a marketing campaign for a plastic surgeon that has come under fire in the US. Dr Michael Salzhauer of Bal Harbour Surgery in Florida has commissioned a pop song called 'Jewcan Sam' from a band called The Groggers.
The video that accompanies the song features a character who is unlucky in love due to the size and shape of his nose, until he undergoes plastic surgery. In real life, Dr Salzhauer funded the video to connect with a younger audience and offered free nose jobs to members of the Groggers, although only lead singer L.E Doug Staiman is thought to have taken up on the surgeon's offer.
Salzhauer maintains the music project was intended to be taken as a light-hearted advert for good plastic surgery. The joke may have backfired however, as the pop-mogul plastic surgeon is now under investigation by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) for breaching its code of ethics.
