PepsiCo Apologizes Over Controversial IPhone App
An iPhone software application developed by PepsiCo Inc. is causing a stir because it gives men pickup lines to use with a variety of women, and a bulletin board to brag about their conquests.
The app, which promotes the Amp energy drink, is called "Amp Up Before You Score."
The app has drawings of what it calls different female types, including the aspiring actress dressed in waitress garb, and the bookworm with pulled-back hair and glasses. The app supposedly gives guys just the right line to win over a particular type.
"Say you need a quick primer on punk rock because she's staring holes in you, and you're a little scared. We've got your back," says a video promoting the app.
