New Face of L'Oreal is....Jane Fonda
2006-05-05
Ooh, this should go over real well...especially in areas by military bases....

Veteran leftwing nutcase actress Jane Fonda is the surprise new face of L'Oreal, heading a lucrative advertising campaign at the age of 68. The Monster-in-Law star joins a glittering list of celebrity spokesmodels including Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz after signing to front L'Oreal Paris anti-aging treatment. The $700,000 contract will see Fonda endorse the face cream on billboards and magazines, and the actress - who is a vocal critic of anything America does cosmetic surgery - insists she is perfect for the role. She says, "Somebody's got to give a face to getting old. I'm going to try and organize other women in my profession and my friends to say no to the duck lips and getting rid of the wrinkles. I've just traveled through Sweden and Finland, looking at faces that were real... as opposed to, in Hollywood, (where) everybody is starting to looking alike." Why don't they give that stuff a real challenge and try it on Cindy Sheehan??

#5  Another Harmonic Convergence between ScrappleFace and what passes for reality in this solar system?

For the ad campaign, will they use the current bitter, dried up Jane or the cute dewy-cheeked Jane sitting on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun?

#4  Lol. Suggested names for the vagina product are now open. Sharon Stone would be a shoo-in for "spokesmodel" (That's gotta be the lamest "occupation" ever, lol.) don't you thinK?

#1  I'm under the impression that this French company had been losing sales post-9/11. This may be a desperation move, to give them an American face. Watch sales continue to drop -- Ms. Fonda is well kept for her age, thanks to some good surgeons, make-up artists and stylists, but I don't believe she is the draw she once was. The French do not understand that American women don't take orders from the fashion industry the way they do elsewhere.
