Ashton Kutcher 'Brownface' Controversy: Actor's Parody Dating Ads For Pop Chips Draw Criticism

A new "viral campaign" (read: advertisement) for Pop Chips that features Ashton Kutcher impersonating a "Bollywood producer" who's "looking for the most delicious thing on the planet" has generated a great deal of controversy.

Shortly after the advertisements went online, a number of Twitter users began criticizing the actor and company for using a white actor for the Indian character. Kutcher shakes his head as he speaks and effects a strong accent in the clip. The "brownface" controversy quickly took hold, with prominent Twitter personalities like writer Anil Dash and New York rappers Das Racist (the name existed before their claims) tweeting their disgust with the campaign.

UPDATE: Pop Chips has responded to the criticism with a statement. Via THR:

"The new popchips worldwide dating video and ad campaign featuring four characters was created to provoke a few laughs and was never intended to stereotype or offend anyone. At popchips we embrace all types of shapes, flavors and colors, and appreciate all snackers, no matter their race or ethnicity. We hope people can enjoy this in the spirit it was intended."
