ADS: Pro athletes' ads favor less healthful food, drinks
"It's a sad story that some of the best-known celebrities in the country are encouraging their young audiences to drink beverages that are bad for their health," says Michael Jacobson, executive director of the group. "We're focusing on Katy because she's so popular with young people."
The goal: to ultimately make celebs gun-shy about taking on lucrative soft drink endorsement deals. Perry, who is releasing a new album, Prism, is the first celeb in the public sites of the advocacy group. There will be more, says Jacobson.

The group of physicians has an understandably large influence on health policy in the United States, and a move to suggest an age requirement for the high-caffeine beverages that are Monster's specialty poses a serious threat to its business.
