Cinnabon Apologizes For Tasteless Carrie Fisher Tweet:
Cinnabon has apologized for what it concedes was a tasteless tweet about the death of Carrie Fisher.
Social media was filled Tuesday with heartfelt tributes to the actress who created the Star Wars heroine Princess Leia. There were videos, “force” references and tender memories.
Then there was the Cinnabon tweet.
“RIP Carrie Fisher, you’ll always have the best buns in the galaxy,” the tweet said, in a jaw-dropping mix of commercialism and double entendre on the day she died.
The tweet included a drawing of Princess Leia done in cinnamon shavings, with her famous ringlets around her ears replaced by a cinnamon bun.
It wasn’t up for long, but it quickly drew complaints.
