Tech/Engineering - Advertising / Public Relations
English term or phrase: backlash
A frequent advertising approach is to show regular people—that is, noncelebrities—using or endorsing products. In addition to being much less expensive than celebrities, typical-person endorsers avoid the potential backlash from using “beautiful people” who may be resented for possessing atypical physical attractiveness or other individual traits
