(We contacted the campaign and haven’t received a response.) We also contacted Condé Nast Britain, which publishes British GQ, and a spokesman told us that the magazine no longer owns the rights to the photos of Melania Trump. So what Trump is suggesting would violate federal regulations.Īnd there’s no evidence that the Trump campaign has provided to back up the accusation. It is illegal for the Cruz campaign to coordinate with the super PAC. …Īnd just so you understand, that super PAC is very friendly to Ted Cruz.
And from what I hear somebody bought the rights to it and he was the one or his campaign bought the rights and they gave it to the super PAC. But it was a cover shoot for GQ, a big magazine. She did - Melania did a cover shoot for GQ, a very strong modeling picture. And from what I hear, he and his campaign went out and bought the cover shoot. Trump, March 27: And by the way, the one that started it. Now, Trump has claimed in an interview on ABC’s This Week that the Cruz camp collaborated with the super PAC on the ad, securing the rights to the photo. The ad sparked a Twitter battle between the GOP presidential candidates, with Trump accusing Cruz of running the photo, Cruz responding that it wasn’t his campaign that did it, and Trump retweeting an unflattering photo of Heidi Cruz next to a photo-shoot-worthy pic of Melania. Or, You Could Support Ted Cruz on Tuesday.” Make America Awesome used the photo in a still Facebook ad, targeting Mormon voters in Utah ahead of the March 22 state Republican caucuses. The photo shows Melania, a model and then Trump’s girlfriend, nude, but strategically arranged on a fur and handcuffed to a briefcase.
The anti-Trump super PAC, Make America Awesome, used a photo that originally was published in a 2000 photo spread in British GQ, and republished on March 4 online by the magazine. But Trump has provided no evidence of that, and the photographer who took the photo told us no one contacted him to buy the rights. Ted Cruz’s campaign of buying the rights to a racy photo of Trump’s wife, Melania, and giving the photo to a super PAC that used it in an ad.
