Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

A previously banned Guitar Hero ad starring Victoria's Secret model Marisa Miller has surfaced on the web.

Filmed in 2008 for the popular Activision video game, the commercial starring a lingerie-clad Miller, rocking out on an electric guitar and drums, was deemed too racy for television and was never officially released. The ad can now be watched on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3f6GW58nQA.

Fellow model Heidi Klum previously starred in the Guitar Hero: World Tour campaign: her very similar video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x2eZIc7Cwo) features the same parody of Tom Cruise's pantless dance in Risky Business, even against the same backdrop. If Miller's ad was "too sexy" like in the Right Said Fred song, Klum's - released just a few months before - sure was too. An internal mix-up?
