Iggy Pop "tortured" by Justin Bieber in new Amnesty International campaign

19 June 2014, 15:16 | Written by Luke Morgan Britton

The Belgian offshoot of human rights group Amnesty International have unveiled new campaign posters starring Iggy Pop.

The poster features the image of a bloodied and bruised Pop supposedly bearing the caption “Justin Bieber is the future of rock and roll” before the message “Torture a man and he will tell you anything” clarifies the quote.

“We can’t imagine Iggy Pop saying that Justin Bieber is the future of rock’n’roll,” said Amnesty director Philippe Hensmans. “Governments that use torture ... claim these techniques give them precious information, but history has shown that tortured people are usually willing to say anything at all to make the pain stop.”

Images of Karl Lagerfeld and the Dalai Lama are also used in the campaign. See the Iggy Pop image below:
