Bloody Ashanti E-Card Pulled After Protest Rally In L.A.

Geez, people can be so sensitive sometimes.A cheesy e-card designed to promote Ashanti's new single called "The Way That I Love You" has been pulled due to protests. In the music video for that song (which you can find below), Ashanti murders her cheating boyfriend. The interactive e-card allowed fans to create a fake news story about the murder in a "mad libs" style, and send the results to their friends. "There are a lot of outraged parents who feel that the type of message and imagery that promotes violence as a tool for solving domestic relation problems is inappropriate," Ali said. "Universal should recognize that they have corporate responsibility for promoting their artists and material that they want us to purchase."The e-cards were not removed until religious leaders threatened to picket Ashanti's performance at game 5 of the NBA finals.
