The latest ad for Coco Mademoiselle from Chanel is here and, oh, boy, are we happy or are we happy about it? If you ask me, I should say that we're pretty happy about it (see the humor in this? - ninja!), especially since British actress Keira Knightley is pretty much naked underneath that black bowler hat and white shirt, carelessly (or not so much) thrown to hide her lady parts...
Let's not get too excited over this and start from the beginning: this is the second Chanel ad featuring a naked celebrity in less than a week, the first one being the one with US rocker (and all-time favorite tabloid character) Courtney Love (second photo). Bearing the tagline 'I'd Rather Go Naked than Wear Fake Chanel' (a reminiscer of Pamela Anderson's naked PETA campaign, 'I'd Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur') and the signature look of fashion designer/occasional photographer Karl Lagerfeld, plus some impressive Photoshop skills, the poster comes off as some brilliant piece of art.
So, if it's art (under the guise of a fragrance promo poster), then we probably shouldn't be bothered by such things as the fact that they practically redid all of Courtney's face and body. Thank you, Photoshop! Thank you very much! According to her own words, the rocker is kinda going through a rougher period of her life, made only worse by the fact that all her plastic surgeries she got on her face did not have the result she was hoping for. Then again, if it's art, we should take it as it is and not be picky. Plus, it's a photo of a good looking naked lady, so that's always a good thing!
And, speaking of naked women, here's the one and only Keira, who came to replace Kate Moss as the official face of Chanel. The actress, who agreed to endorse the fabulous fragrance for a price of an estimated £500,000, had this to say about the perfume she's now promoting: 'It is the first women's perfume I've ever worn. I need something clean.' And then she added, probably to the dismay of her publicist and the Chanel people: 'I like fresh [perfumes] and this one is quite clean. I need something clean - I don't shower enough. My natural smell is rather musky'.
But, back to the nakedness, one can't resist to observe that, while Keira is coyly hiding her breasts (or lack thereof, to her own admission) under that hat, there is a vague hint that they are rounder than usual. In the past, Keira repeatedly said that, for all US posters, the producers of the movies she worked on digitally enhanced her breasts because anyone under a C cup was considered a 'turn off'. So, what we're staring at right now (that is, Keira's boobs) can be a case of either of the following: a. Photoshop at its best (very likely), b. plastic surgery at its best (very unlikely, since the actress said on countless occasions that she basically doesn't, quote, 'give a s**t' about having 'no t*ts') or c. a very good case of bodily position and lighting (again, unlikely, since the first variant is more probable).
To conclude: beggars can't be choosers and, when Keira and Courtney agree to show that much skin, no matter the reason, we should all just be happy about it and nod our heads in approval. Bitching - bad! Nakedness - awesome!
