Transformers hottie Megan Fox has just made room for Victoria Beckham to get out of Emporio Armani underwear – cuz Fox has been signed up to model Armani intimates as well as jeans.
The buzz is that the 23-year-old once-upon-a-time ‘Hope & Faith’ actress will hitting the high end of the normal Armani payout — which is just around $2 million.
The global economy must be recovering — at least in the celebrity/fashion world. Why else would Giorgio Armani be signing up top of the line celebs, like they’re donuts or something? (He signed up Cristiano Ronaldo to pitch Armani men’s underwear and Armani jeans less than a fortnight ago.)
I guess I know what you’re thinking… would Fox and Ronaldo appear together in an underwear ad? Far off chance, I’d say, but you never know…

Hollywood actress celebrity newsmaker-actress-model good ol’ Lindsay Lohan is set to get creative and take over as artistic director for French fashion brand, Emanuel Ungaro and its new chief designer, Estrella Archs.
Will this work? is what’s being pondered in gossip/industry circles, especially since Lohan allegedly has no record in ground-breaking fashion design.
But Mounir Moufarrige, Ungaro’s chief executive officer, obviosuly thinks it will. Here’s what he told WWD:
“Odds are it could work. Everything we’re going to get is going to be a plus. I think the noise level around Lindsay will be very, very big.”
Meanwhile, Lindsay, 23, said she wants she wants to take the brand to a “younger place.” She told WWD:
“When I’m involved in a project, I give my all to it.
“I feel like there’s a correlation between everything I do, whether it’s pop music or film. I’ve always played a big part in what I wear, the costumes. Clothing is something that’s so expressive in so many ways. It really interests me. To be in a position where I’m working with a fashion house in Paris sets it apart from every other celebrity brand.”
Lohan will “kind of oversees everything [Archs] does, while working with her,” WWD quoted the star as saying.
“Different generations have different ideas,” Lohan added.
How would Archs handle “the different ideas” theory? The Spanish designer does appear ‘cool’ with the idea, saying, “Have you ever met two women who agree completely about fashion?”
The duo will make a presentation of its first collection in Paris on October 4.
American fashion model Elettra Wiedemann is appearing in Fall 2009 campaigns for denim creations by Dutch brand G-Star RAW, which is known for its fashionable ‘ultra’-urban clothing.
If you asked me, Wiedemann’s the one to watch out for to make it big in the celebrity fashion scene. She’s pretty, young and can rise to any occasion, especially if you see her modeling for G-Star and Lexus and Versace (photos below).
Elettra, 26, has a Italian and Swedish descent, besides a dual German and American nationality and is perfectly poised to endorse the global brand G-Star jeans and other denim apparel, especially with her ‘detached’ look.
The gorgeous granddaughter of Swedish actress Ingrid Bergman was shot by renowned photographer Anton Corbijin for G-Star RAW’s Fall campaign.
Feel free to click and zoom in on Elettra… she won’t bite. She won’t bite. Unfortunately.
Enjoy this 55-second behind-the-scene footage released by Rampage:
“The Rampage line is comfortable and the cuts are very feminine,” said Refaeli, 24. “It always fits perfectly to the curves of a woman’s body – I have curves and I feel really good in it!”
The fall campaign will debut in September issues of fashion and lifestyle magazines such as Elle, Lucky and Cosmopolitan as well as be featured on outdoor advertising and online at fashion and lifestyle websites.
“We were looking for a fresh new face to follow our spring campaign with Gisele Bundchen and when we met Bar we instantly fell in love with her,” said Dari Marder, chief marketing officer, Rampage.
“Bar is sweet, young, sexy and beautiful just like our Rampage customer. We look forward to a wonderful partnership.”
The Rampage campaign was shot by famed fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon at an estate in Los Angeles. Refaeli wears Rampage clothing, accessories, intimates and footwear in a variety of set ups from posing seductively in lingerie to a more innocent playful stance in sportswear for the campaign. The campaign was created by the Iconix in-house marketing team.
Who do you think suits Rampage better? Anyways, Rampage seems to be developing a penchant for changing its spokesperson on a whim — wasn’t it less than six months ago that Gisele replaced Petra Nemocova?
Go ahead and zoom in on Bar and Gisele photos. They won’t bite… unfortunately.
Avril Lavigne’s rocky style has inspired her into doing something really unique now — creating a children’s line for her Abbey Dawn collection for juniors launched last year.
Apparently, Avril seems to be having a ball doing it. The 24-year-old ‘Girlfriend’ singer told People magazine: “We have a really cute zebra hoodie with ears and I’m like, ‘Can I fit into the extra-large? Because I really like these!’ ”
Avril, meanwhile, is becoming more feminine than ever, as she admitted, “I mix rock and roll elements with high-end stuff now – I love Chanel. I’m just more feminine now, but my style still has everything I’ve ever liked.”
The talk is that her designs will feature layered T-shirts with skulls on and leggings. Something like this in this photo of Avril here on top?
Or the pictures of Avril Lavigne taken a little earlier, such as the ones below? (Maxim cover period)?
