Ted Cruz's now-pulled "Conservatives Anonymous" ad features former softcore porn actress Amy Lindsay

[Miles Archer]

One message Ted Cruz no longer approves of is a campaign ad that featured a softcore porn actress.

Prior to appearing in Cruz's "Conservatives Anonymous" commercial targeting Marco Rubio, Amy Lindsay had parts in Erotic Confessions, Carnal Wishes, Secrets of a Chambermaid, and Insatiable Desires. In an interview with BuzzFeed News, Lindsay, a self-described conservative Christian and Republican, said she's never been in any XXX films, and thought everyone involved in the commercial knew about her previous credits. Cruz spokesman Rick Tyler told BuzzFeed News Lindsay went to an open casting call and was "not vetted by the production company" after getting the job. "Had the campaign known of her full filmography, we obviously would not have let her appear in the ad," he said.

"Conservatives Anonymous" is being yanked from the air, he said, and will be replaced with another commercial. As for Lindsay, she told BuzzFeed News she was trying to decide if she wanted to support Cruz or Donald Trump, but later tweeted she was "extremely disappointed" by the Cruz campaign pulling the ad.

1. Ted Cruz is putting out some of the funniest ads of this cycle.

The 'eminent domain' Trump action figure made me laugh my butt off, and Morning Joe just rolled one he did against Clinton reprising the classic Office Space scene where the printer is destroyed with Hillary and a couple buddies destryong her email server. 'Damn it feels good to be a Clinton...'

2. She's extremely disappointed that the man who 'shows America the face of God that we serve'

pulled an ad featuring a softcore porn actress? Has she listened to Ted Cruz? Every time he opens his mouth some sort of God babble comes flowing out.

3. There is no better casting possible for an ad that was, essentially, political pornography. nt
