'THR' Leads All Trades In B.J. Imagery Ad-Buys
Posted by Seth at 10:19 AM on February 27, 2008
Industry drones filing into their offices this morning were greeted with not quite your run-of-the-mill THR cover, but rather the somewhat startling, full-color image above. It all comes courtesy of the Belvedere Vodka company, as envisioned by photographer Terry Richardson. And while it took us a good ten minutes to figure out the connection between a trades publication, smooth spirits, and a Mischa Barton-esque woman reapplying lipstick shortly after having made acquaintance with an unidentified man's crotch, it suddenly dawned on us: Now that the For Your Consideration season is over, the For Your Appreciation ads are right there to take its place.

"Unidentified man's crotch" my ass. It's another Vincent Gallo blow job.

No, no, see, she's using the belt buckle as a MIRROR! For her LIPSTICK! Who HASN'T done that? And, are we sure that's a man-crotch? Ah, it works on so many levels.

I don't understand what any of this has to do with Mister Belvedere.

Would somebody tell me how Vincent Gallo earns a living?

@Admore: Oh, well, if it's just about the mirror, then ok.
Seriously, could there be a more perfect ad for a Hollywood trade? ugh.

I think it's an ad for the new movie Rainbow Party: The Musical!.

Should "luxury" make you want to take a long hot shower in Cipro and schedule a gamma globulin booster?

I'm guessing the crotch belongs to Javier Bardem.

All Terry Richardson photos look like this. Even the ones of Viggo. Looks like somebody's earned his red wings!

Miss D, you need to venture out and find a bottle o' "Zyr"; it puts B-dere to shame. As for Gallo, who suggested he makes a living?

Luxury Reborn? I mean, luxury would have a white powder to go with the mirrors? And shouldn't they be drinking Grey Goose?
