A provocative beer ad showing American celebrity Paris Hilton in suggestive poses has been recast and relaunched in Brazil after having been banned as sexist.

In the new spot, which aired Tuesday evening on the main television networks, the beer itself becomes the star and Hilton’s face is seen only for a few seconds.

The Brazilian agency that regulates advertising on Monday blocked the original spot in which the young heiress dances on the balcony of a Rio apartment in a black mini-robe, allowing herself to be photographed by a voyeur in an apartment across the way.

The head of the ad agency responsible for the campaign, Augusto Cruz, said there was “a good dose of humor” in the new spot.

“But I’m also sure there was nothing wrong with the previous one,” he told O Estado de Sao Paulo.

Four complaints were filed against the ad, including one by a government women’s rights organization which criticized it for its “sexism and lack of respect for the condition of women.”

Hilton, heiress of the Hilton hotel chain entrepreneur, took part in the launch of the 54-million-dollar ad campaign in February at the height of the Rio Carnival which featured images of young nude women in shackles.

Seitenblicke magazine reported that Paris Hilton will be in Austria on March 27 to appear on a TV show called “Wetten, dass…?” She will also later attend a Vienna nightclub.

Advertisers have agreed to pull a controversial Brazilian beer commercial featuring Paris Hilton, following complaints about its sexist undertones.

The socialite sparked controversy last month, when she appeared on TV and internet ads rubbing a can of Devassa beer on herself in an office building as passers-by stare at her antics.

Despite being fully clothed throughout the ad, officials at Brazil’s Women’s Secretariat revealed authorities received several complaints about the “sensual nature” of the campaign. Meanwhile watchdog group, Conar, requested the ad be removed.

On Tuesday, a spokesperson for Devassa brewer Schincariol announced the commercial would be pulled temporarily, but defended the campaign.

A statement from Schincariol reads: “The company believes that the advertisement starring the model Paris Hilton doesn’t offend in any sense, any rule or orientation.”

Paris Hilton threw a private birthday party at her house over the weekend. Many BFFs, namely Kaitlin Cassidy, Vanessa Fontana, Lauren Stone, Nicole White and Stephen Hampton, also attended the party.
