More Dita Von Teese For Cointreau

Doesn't she look like the perfect 1950's June Cleaver-housewife?

Dita Von Teese exuding her signature nostalgic glamour on these new Cointreau promotional images. The chic French liquor maison has Ms. Von Teese as their new face (and body) and this is a match made in heaven in my opinion. Dita is flawless and Little-Pumpkins will always show her much love and adoration!

Benetton's Africa Works Ad Campaign

Benetton puts the spotlight on entrepreneurial Africa. Its global communication campaign for 2008 promotes the Birima micro-credit programme in Senegal, a co-operative credit society founded by the Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour. The programme will also receive financial support from Benetton Group. Africa Works - the slogan of the campaign developed by Fabrica - will appear on billboards and in the press throughout the world, from February 2008. It features Senegalese workers who have used micro loans to start small, productive businesses. Photographer James Mollison portrays them with the tools of their trade against a neutral background. They include, amongst others, a fisherman, a decorator, a musician, a jewellery-maker, a farmer, a tailor, two textile sellers and a boxer. These everyday people become tangible symbols of an Africa that uses the dignity of work to fight poverty, promote equitable development, maximise its resources and take back responsibility for creating its future.

In addition to outdoor and press advertising, the new Benetton campaign includes a series of projects and events: a special supplement distributed with Colors 73 about money in its myriad forms and substances; a new version of Birima, song recorded by Youssou N’Dour in 2000 and re-arranged by him in 2008 with the extraordinary participation of Patti Smith, Simphiwe Dana, Irene Grandi and Francesco Renga; a videoclip of the song; a cartoon about micro-credit produced specifically for the Senegalese community and African TV channels; a Benetton website devoted to the campaign and its related events and the http://www.birima.org/ portal, both devised and developed by Fabrica. The Africa Works campaign will also be on stage during the Senegalese singer's world tour, in particular during his concert at Paris Bercy on 5 April 2008.

Christina Aguilera For Stephen Webster

Christina Aguilera looking stunning in the new ad campaign for jeweler Stephen Webster. Christina has come a long way from tween mouseketeer, via dirrrty X-tina, to her current 1940's glamour gal. She has had some serious fashion missteps along the way but finally she has come to her own skin. She does incorporate the classic Hollywood starlet persona perfectly and this is the best she has ever looked in my opinion. I guess motherhood did her very good!

Victoria Beckham's Double Dose

Victoria Beckham went fashion-chameleon this month, first as Vogue UK's April cover celeb and on the current ad campaign of Marc Jacobs. On the ads she is looking more Scary than Posh in my opinion, but I give her kudos for daring to go "un-pretty" for the fashion label. It seems to me that celebs nowadays have become "labels of themselves", always so polished and perfect-looking that is fresh to find people that goes against the grain. As a Brit she is showing that she hasn't lost her eccentric side or sense of humour by donning a really silly little bow atop an equally silly wig. My only advice would be to lay off the spray tan and bronzer powder, if she wants to look human at least .

Fergie For Kipling

Celebrities will do anything for a buck these days and Fergie is no exception, so it seems. She can currently be seem as the face of Kipling bags, you know, the one with the monkey logo. This is definitely not my favorite campaign around as neither the bags or Fergie look that great on the images. I am sure she pocketed a pretty penny to advertise their products but she might as well grab them while she's (still) hot.

Jenna Jameson For PETA

Geez, it seems like everyone and their mother is in a PETA campaign these days. The new PETA pin-up girl is porn star Jenna Jameson in a "Pleather, Not Leather" poster campaign against the use of animal hides for clothing and accessories. What confuses me is that petroleum products are far worse for the environment than organic leather, though I am against any & all cruelty towards animals. It would be more effective in my opinion to campaign against any leather-looking products all together as vinyl, plastic, pleather, etc will all be here longer than most of us and probably poison water sources and do more harm than good to animals (and people). Jenna Jameson's silicon boobs alone will outlive all of us!
