Model Belén Rodríguez has found herself at the center of some controversy in Italy after complaints about her latest ads.
The campaign featured pictures of the Argentine model in her smalls, for the lingerie brand Jadea, but the local residents have decided that they're a bit too racy for the public and should be taken down.
The residents claimed that the billboards were "a serious danger for vehicular circulation", or in other words, motorists would get too distracted by them and might end up crashing as a result.

Speaking in an interview with The Times, Rodriguez said that the ads weren't too saucy and that they were "sensual, but elegant", so they shouldn't be taken down, but the police have decided otherwise and will remove the billboards, some of which were several storeys high, so that people can get back to driving safely on the roads. Sure who'd be distracted by a 30-foot tall woman in her undies? Unless...this enormous woman will devour us all!
