Angelina Jolie’s wallet is set to become a whole fatter. The Hollywood star has just been named as the new face of Louis Vuitton.
The altruistic actress will star in a worldwide advertising campaign this summer. Acclaimed photographer Annie Leibowitz will shoot the images which sources say will net Ange close to $10 million. That’s a whole chunk of change. In fact, it’s believed to the most lucrative brand endorsement of Angelina Jolie’s career.
Apparently the photos will be taken over the next couple of weeks, so hopefully we’ll start to hear soon how the advertisement is taking shape. The advertisement campaign will be restricted to the print medium. Personally I’m thankful for that. I’m getting really sick of those artsy fartsy advertising videos, aren’t you?
Personally I’m pretty excited about Angelina’s appointment. She’s one of those rare female celebrities that’s as loved by women as she is by men. She’s also utterly gorgeous, and a real fan of Louis Vuitton’s handbags. I always love it when a celebrity endorses a company they really believe in, although I have an idea that Angelina wouldn’t have it any other way.
Do you think Angelina Jolie is the right woman for the job?
