What does Angelina Jolie-Pitt & Amal Clooney have in common ? Two women, two stories. They both drastically managed and transformed their image in the past years by building and developing a strong ” Brand Biography” through the medias. Angelina Jolie : From wild actress to movie director Angelina Jolie has the best publicity game in Hollywood. Her image slowly changed, through the years, going from the bad mistress, sexy savor, man eater to the Good Wife, Good Mother, Good Women, Good Actress, Good Human. She was acclaimed for her double mastectomy and depicted as a role model for her New York Times piece. She build her fiction character persona through the story of her real life.

Kardashian, Jenner, West : A Mega Family Brand

How Kardashian/Jenners went from F to A+ Brand 4 Years ago I read an article on Daily Mail on how Kris Jenner built a $65M family empire, and I knew at that time that this family would play a crucial role in the celebrity space. But back in 2011 I wouldn’t ever guess to what point they would become that powerful. Unless that today, one of the most famous of the Kardashian Klan had managed to be included in the very hot list of Time’s most influential people of the year. Kim Kardashian “The first lady of #fame” is among Pope France, Angela Merkel or Tim Cook one of the titans of our time.

Celebrity Endorsement | Lady Gaga x Versace

Lady Gaga x Versace Wow can you say “exact copy” ? Can we say this is a Donatella drag younger version ? Gaga is currently promoting her latest album called Artpop like the rent is due so this campaign is well on time. I’m not against a partnership between Lady Gaga & Versace, she has worn their designs before numerous times, including some iconic vintage dresses, so I guess that their relationship is pretty good. Also I like this editorial’s styling, it reminds me of one of Versace’s best campaign with Christina Aguilera back 10 years ago. However I find this all Clone-atella thing could’ve been more creative than this. It’s good but there’s no WOW effect that Gaga used to give everytime she had to sell something. Considering that Gaga is the master of changing the way that she looks, it’s almost a cop-out that they styled her to look exactly like Donatella, since they could have done SO MUCH more with Lady Gaga.They missed a great opportunity to go all out “Fashion Gaga.” Read More :  Givenchy x Erykah Badu More  of Celebrity Endorsements

Kristen Stewart for Balenciaga Florabotanica  VS Robert Pattinson for Dior Homme Check it out, the KStew latest ad for Balenciaga Florabotanica. While Pattinson’s slow jerk has lasted half the summer, Kristen Stewart’s latest fragrance reveal has been the exact opposite. (Lainey Gossip ) It’s got to be awkward. Awkward like Kristen. Everybody seems to be ok with the fact that she looks great. Much better than last time, it’s clear and it’s nude. So that means that instead of canceling their association with the scandalicious little one, Balenciaga team choose to reevaluate the power of her star image and do better this time. They still bet on the Twihard huge potential even if there is a Twilight extreme fatigue. So how did she managed to sign-up for a second Balenciaga ad campaign ?  Considering I thought she brought little to nothing to the Balenciaga table. The first ads were awful, and whenever Kristen tried to talk up the brand, she ended up fidgeting and walking out of the room.
