JCPenney Discontinued a T-shirt That Said ‘I’m Too Pretty to Do Homework’

After several blogs expressed outrage over this shirt, on sale at JCPenney for $9.99 (down from its original $16.99), the retailer issued the following statement: "We agree that the 'Too pretty' t-shirt does not deliver an appropriate message, and we have immediately discontinued its sale."
