    John Terry is in the news again and this time it appears a tobacco company has used his image without consent.

    haha it does look like him a little! But who really knows if they would try to pull off a trick like that by posting Terry without his permition!

    After reading the article and seeing how often it has happened in India, I would not be surprised if it was intentionally done.

    Thats true, Ive seen billboards here in Costa Rica with some crappy brand with Jennifer Lopez' face or Britney Spears... I think I even saw Wesley Snipes' face on a hair gel product.
