ADDICT: The Simpsons ‘Black Up’

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

The Simpsons have ‘blacked up’ for a new advertising campaign.

The family was given the makeover by an Angolan advertising agency to promote the series on the satellite service DStv.

As well as the darker skin, Lisa and Maggie’s hair has been braided, the whole family’s clothes have been changed for more typical African garb – while the picture of the boat that traditionally hangs over their sofa has been replaced by a savannah landscape.
