Vanessa who? Not sure if the name is very popular yet, but Vanessa Paradis, Johnny Depp’s girfriend, is replacing Kirsten Dunst as the face of Prada’s Miu Miu brand.
The Prada fashion house has confirmed the French singer/actress will be their spokesmodel for the 2008 and 2009.
The ads will once again be left up to the photography talents of Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott will shoot Paradis for the campaigns, the same team who shot Dunst last year.
Fans will recall that Vanessa has previously starred in campaigns for Chanel. She also recently won Best Female Pop Song at the Ceremony of Victoires De La Musiques 2008 in Paris.

Ryka Shoes finally finds faith in the Faith Fairfield character of “HOPE & Faith”, the central character of the popular ABC series.
Matter of fact, I started watching “HOPE & Faith” only recently, like three or four months ago. I must say Kelly has portrayed the character of little sister Faith Fairfield in absolute spontaneity. And obviously, I’m not the only one who loves Kelly. Ryka Shoes says, “Kelly was chosen because she embodies the women who inspire our brand. She’s passionate about fitness and knows the positive impact connecting with her inner athlete has had on all aspects of her life.”
The celebrity mum, 37, is quoted to have said this: “To be designing products that I can wear in my daily quest to maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle.” That’s cool.
“I am thrilled to be part of the Ryka family and to be designing products that I can wear in my daily quest to maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle,” Kelly added. “Women are willing to sacrifice for fashion, but they shouldn’t have to sacrifice for fitness. My collection will continue the Ryka tradition while incorporating stylish designs, technical performance details and comfort; three essential ingredients for active women everywhere.”
Hmm… did you know Kelly’s also passionate about the New York Mets and does commercials for them?

6126–at least, I think that’s what it’s called. Lindsay Lohan’s new black leggings featuring exposed zips, glittery fabric and shiny knee patches.
“I’m doing my own leggings line,” the 21-year-old newsmaker told Life & Style. “I love leggings. They’ll have designs. Some of them will have prints and some will have patterns.”
LiLo started off by striking a pose outside the Vista Theatre in Hollywood, before grabbing a couple of models and hitting Robertson Boulevard where 50 photographers were promptly waiting for her.
I think it’s a good thing for Lindsay to do. Might give her a sense of responsibility… after all, from what we hear, she’s in a cash trap, having to pay $1 million for her hotels and $70,000 for tanning… huh.
