She reminds me of Courtney Love.

[business_guy]

She's 50, but still looks great and very fit. Very rich-looking (though she's really very wealthy)....

[clawed_out]

I don't find her looking great.

She looks like a petrified aging barbie that was operated by hollywood doctors a million times.

She looks scary.

I disagree (lol). She looks great. Expect her image on every Louis Vuitton Shops worldwide early next year....

[clawed_out]

That's ok. This will be an ugly thread if we're all to hate or worship her.

No!!!

I like someone fresher and real fresh. Not someone who's been doctored so many millions of time.

J.Lo was a lot better model.

[jaderoswell]

still hot...

[skuidward]

Ilang inches kaya ang heels niya? 7?

:) Thanks for that compliment (kahit hindi ako si J.Lo pero die hard fan niya ako) :)

Pero Madonna also looks great. She looks stunning sa mga pics above especially when she's wearing fishnet stockings. :)

I beg to disagree, IMO, J Lo's Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2004 campaign was :vomit: Super plastic, her poses were ridiculous, the men (back-up models) looks silly, and she was a diva (tried stealing some bags.. this is true).. *peace*

As for the Spring/Summer 2009 with Madonna, it's really refreshing to see a new style of photography (after Mert & Marcus' 6-year reign). Steven Meisel did a great job, the pics really evokes the French-ness of the collection. Loving it! *okay*

[JENSIE_G]

J. Lo's LV campaign is a classic!!!! Much, much better than Madonna's IMO.

[feifeikokland]

drool grabe...

J.Lo's campaign was good, but it did not change the usual image of Louis Vuitton. Madonna's campaign is very different from the usual Louis Vuitton Image which was too studio - this has been a criticism to Louis Vuitton advertisement. in www.ilvoelv.com, the chief designer, Marc Jacobs said he recently watch Madonna's show in Paris. He was moved to Madonna's energetic performance - that made him decide to offer Madonna to be their company's campaign for the next season....

[mariannievera]

uma thurman's was the best for me 2005 ata yung sa kanya.

Okay ... Well, I'm not really inclined to liking this particular LV collection. It's the clothes, man. It's so not Madonna, IMO. I would have envisioned her to be an endorser for Jean Paul Gaultier or even Chanel (she recently appeared in one of its dresses in a recent Elle issue) instead.

Thanks for the additional info though ...

[JENSIE_G]

One of the best for me.

I also loved that of Christina Ricci. :up:

[Bengt]

Fave campaign ko yung from last season, Spring 2008.. All-star supermodel cast (90's - 00's): Naomi Campbell, Eva Herzigova, Claudia Schiffer, Stephanie Seymour, Angela Lindvall & Natalia Vodianova..

[Mica19]

nag iba na tingin ko sa LV ngayon.... pang-"MATANDA".

why Madonna? target market ba nila ngayon ay mga oldies na? hhhmmm.... which gave me an idea on what i'll give my lola this xmas! haha

i agree, JLO's ad campaign for LV was a classic and it still remains.

[JENSIE_G]

^ There were even LV sleeves for newspapers carrying J Lo's campaign. I remember that. December 2003.

[b♥♥m]

My fave still is Jennifer's Campaign. And weird enough, I like Scarlett's as well.

[JENSIE_G]

^ Scarlett is just oozing with sex appeal in her LV campaign. So voluptuous!!!

[skuidward]

I can't help but look at other LV campaign pictures in the past years.

Daria Werbowy nailed it for me.

I dont wanna sound mean or ruin the momentum of this thread, but whatever Madonna's wearing there greatly reminds me of the Jolly Green Giant.

[tigacainta]

I think Madonna makes an Elite Brand looks Cheap as always..

there's seem no sense of Regal nor Royalty in her personality..

i guess you market things to sell..

but the feel good is not there..

sorry..

Hmmm, isn't LV supposed to be for older women (30 and above)?

^sorry to say but for me, J,Lo's LV campaogn sucked. it wasn't classic at all. i think sa lahat ng kinuha ni marc jacobs na celebrity model ng LV, it was uma thurman's (F/W 05 to be exact) one who really stood out. next would be the latest one, S/S 09 w/ madonna.

btw, i SO love madonna's LV campaign! she and steven meisel did a wonderful job again. palagi silang may spark pag magsasama sila. no wonder sya ang fave. ni madonna na photographer. ;) madonna really suits in the S/S parisian-theme collection of LV :);)

You're a Certified Mimi Fan (lol), but sad to say, Mimi can't get the appeal of LVMH Group, espcially with Marc Jacobs....

[business_guy]

Rumors circulating that Louis Vuitton paid Madonna $10 Million for the campaign for the Spring/Summer of 2009, but Marc Jacobs commented "It’s very far away from that." What I perceived with that statement is that it is more than $10 Million....

:lol: i don't think he/she is. Not everyone who trashes madonna is a Mimi fan:bop:

:eek: i wanna swim in Madonna's pool of money:lol:

[clawed_out]

^ Hey can you invite me once you get invited! I'll do the same!

Why are so many people get so worked up with who's a better fit for the campaign?

:lol:

I TOTALLY AGREE! Akala ko ako lang ang may ayaw sa :fume: campaign ni JLo. Pwe! :rotflmao:

[business_guy]

Madonna's campagin looks better than J.Lo - very studio and nothing new. J. Lo looks good in the campaign....

[business_guy]

:lol: i don't think he/she is. Not everyone who trashes madonna is a Mimi fan:bop:

:eek: i wanna swim in Madonna's pool of money:lol:

Hehe. She's 50 years old, but she earns more money than most of the celebrities around (lol). She's worth around U$525 Million according to cnn and cbsnews (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/10/16/earlyshow/main4526065.shtml), making her 4th richest female celebrity behind Oprah with US$1.6 Billion, J.K. Rowling with US$1 Billion, and Martha Stewart with US$635 Million. By end of 2008, she might took Martha Stewart's position, as her recent concert is grossing over US$285 Million in just 58 shows, and she might have take home pay around US$140+ Million in her recent concert alone. Based on her previous tours, she usually takes the entire 50% of the gross sales....

[clawed_out]

How do we spell devoted and worked up fans? :glee:

Shall we all agree that we have this thread moved to Int'l Movies and TV fora?

[rhumbadancer]

This thread is about the LV Spring 2009 ad campaign. and this early I already think it's a smashing success. It looks very French & so sexy. But since Paris is kind of far, I'll settle for a trip to hongkong after Christmas, so I can get myself a new LV bag. In the meantime, I'll just head on down to the gym everyday...Madonna's so buff and toned, grabe!:mecry:

What I perceived with that statement is that it is more than $10 Million....It will take about one year and six months for all the Indian workers at the LV factory in Pondicherry to make that money....:(

the 09 stephen sprouse is gonna be ill, i was lucky enough to purchase the original speedy with the olive green graffiti and a bandana for myself the first day it came out in southcoast plaza. the new colorways are just as hot this time. i havent liked any LV for a while but i think this line is gonna go off the charts.trust.

[supermackey]

photography is top notch.
