WASHINGTON (AFP) - Abercrombie & Fitch has offered to pay Michael The Situation Sorrentino, a character in hit reality show Jersey Shore, to stop wearing its clothes, fearing its image is being tarnished. The offer includes other members of the MTV shows brash, foul-mouthed, spray-tanned Italian-American cast, and A&F is urgently waiting a response, the US fashion retailer said in a statement. The weight-lifting, tight-abbed Sorrentino could have walked straight out of one of A&Fs racy ads, which often feature well-toned young models, but the company wants nothing to do with him. We are deeply concerned that Mr. Sorrentinos association with our brand could cause significant damage to our image, an A&F spokesman said in the statement, titled A Win-Win Situation.
