It appears that Miss Faithfull advirtised 'Mars' bars in the mid 1960's when she was the girlfreind of Mick Jagger. Apparently 'Mars' refused to pay her for her part in the in the advertising campaign even though Maryann bosted sales to an all time high, can anyone supply me with information on this? Did Maryann take 'Mars' to court? and is it true Mick also had somthing to do with the adverts success. It is unlike a pop star to do anything for nothing so whats the score?

I take it this is a "joke", everyone knows the urban myth about Marianne and the Mars bar. It did boost sales but it wasn't exactly a legitimate advertising campaign. By the way, in her autobiography she denied the incident with the Mars bar ever took place.
