 Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand have reportedly turned down a $50 Million advertising deal.
The band were offered the huge pay day by an un-named advertiser, but rejected the offer on the basis of maintaining their artistic integrity.
He told the Scotsman: "The advert meant we had to completely surrender all of our identity and integrity to this product that was being advertised."
"It wasn't... Coca Cola or anything like that. It was just a thing that needed some music associated with it."
"We just had to say no because of the gut reaction. It wasn't because we didn't want to sell more records. It was just because it didn't feel right."NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
