Last month Lindsay Lohan tweeted a preview pic from the upcoming Spring 2010 ad campaign for her leggings line called 6126. Today we get to see some of the other photos from the ad campaign … including this one:

Man, she is really running with this 80’s look she’s got goin’ on. No lie, she looks like she fell right out of a Whitesnake music video. But wait, there is more to behold. After the jump, check out a few more photos from the 6126 Spring ‘10 promo ad campaign …

Trent Reznor, newly happily married to his beautiful bride Mariqueen Maandig Reznor this past weekend here in SoCal, has teamed up with the hit Fox sci-fi series Fringe on a new promo video for the show. Altho Nine Inch Nails came to an end just last month when they played their final live concert ever at The Wiltern theater here in LA, TR reworked the NIN song Zero Sum for use in the new Fringe promo video. Entertainment Weekly has got the deets:

It may not be a paranormal event, but it’s cool and unusual: Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor has teamed up with Fringe for a new promo spot, EW.com has learned. The spot, which debuts Thursday during Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, features a reworking of the Nine Inch Nails song “Zero-Sum” by Reznor, who recites lines of dialogue from Fringe’s William Bell (Leonard Nimoy) over the music. So, how did the freaky drama series secure the services of Reznor? After Fox’s marketing department showed the Fringe producers a version of the promo that used “Zero-Sum,” series exec producer Jeff Pinkner simply asked a nearby Reznor acquaintance—that’d be co-creator J.J. Abrams—if the NIN musician might be interested in a collaboration. One email later, Reznor was on the case. “We offered him compensation, and he said, ‘No, no, I just want to have fun and be part of something cool,’” says Pinkner, adding: “How often do you get the chance to work with somebody like that?” Reznor wound up revamping the song in his mobile studio while on tour, and he even came up with the idea of “embedding” one of the show’s glyphs in the music. (Hint: Examine the song’s sound waves on a computer.) Now for the big question: Might Reznor pop up in an episode of Fringe? “If he wants to come act on the show, that’s not tit for tat—that’s an open invitation, and we made that known to him,” says Pinkner. Any ideas on what he may play? “Well, his head would probably end up exploding,” deadpans Pinkner. “There’d be some uncomfortable biology in there one way or another.”

Looooove this!! Fringe is deffo one of the coolest shows on TV right now and I love that TR wanted to lend his voice and music to help promote the series. I would DIE if Trent decided to make a cameo on the show … even if they made his head explode, I think it’d be really effing cool. After the jump, check out this new Fringe promo vid featuring Zero Sum with the added vocals for yourselves …

Altho it’s only mid-October and we still have Hallowe’en and Thanksgiving to look forward to, US clothier Abercrombie & Fitch have unleashed new photos from their Xmas 2009 promo campaign … and you know what that means … nekkid guys ahead! Here are a few of the new A&F photos, presumably shot by famed photographer Bruce Weber, for their new holiday promotion:

The word “fierce” seems to be the prevailing theme of these photographs of half-nekkid men. If you, like me, miss the days of yore when Abercrombie would sell their A&F catalog then I’m sure that you, like me, can appreciate that photos that might’ve appeared in the catalog (if it were still in publication) tend to pop up on the official A&F website. These photos tend to be released more prominently ahead of the holidays. Yes, Xmas comes early this year. After the jump, check out a bunch more photos of these hawt half-nekkid A&F models …

Last week we learned the news that footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has been chosen as the new male spokesmodel for Armani Underwear, taking over the modeling reigns from fellow footballer David Beckham. Today we learn that Megan Fox has been tapped as the new female spokesmodel for the designer undies … taking over for Victoria Beckham:

American actress Megan Fox will strip down to her underwear for Giorgio Armani’s Emporio Armani fashion brand, the Italian design house said on Wednesday. Fox, who starred in the “Transformers” films, follows in the footsteps of “Posh Spice” Victoria Beckham who along with her soccer-playing husband David heads the Emporio Armani autumn/winter underwear campaign. The actress will also be the new official worldwide face for Armani Jeans for next year. Armani said in a statement the soon-to-be unveiled adverts were shot by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott at the weekend in Lost Angeles. The duo also took the Beckhams’ underwear ad pictures. Last week, the Milan-based fashion house said Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo would replace David Beckham as the new sports model for Emporio Armani’s men’s underwear.

Shortly after it was announced that Ronaldo would be taking over for Becks, Vicki B. announced that she would not be renewing her Armanimodeling contract either … so it was just a matter of time before the announcement was made as to who would be replacing her. Considering how Megan Fox has saturated the media with her presence in the past couple of years, Armani’s decision to choose her as their new spokesmodel makes sense. It remains to be seen if Megan and Cristiano will appear in ads together like Becks and Posh did during their reign but, if Armani is smart, they will feature their new models together as well as individually. I still think that Armani should’ve done everything in their power to keep Becks on board but … I guess now that it’s a done deal, I’m curious to see what the new ads will look like. What do y’all think … do you want to see Megan Fox modeling Armani women’s underwear on billboards all around the world?

For the past year or so, David Beckham and his bulging bulge has provided us with much entertainment in his various ad campaign photos for Emporio Armani Underwear. But, as with all good things, Becks’s contract with Armani is up … so Armani had to choose someone else to stuff their bulge into their famous underwear for their new 2010 ad campaign. Clearly Armani really likes having fútbols stuffed into their undies because they have selected Real Madrid footballer Cristiano Ronaldo as their new underwear model:

Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, of Real Madrid, will be the next footballer to model underwear for Emporio Armani, in their spring-summer 2010 collection, replacing AC Milan and England footballer David Beckham, Italian sports daily La Gazetta dello Sport announced on Friday. Originally, Armani chose “Shevchenko, then Kaká, both alluring, both footballers, both Milan players – and both fully dressed,” said the paper. When it came to modelling its line of underwear, Armani went for Beckham, on loan to Milan since 2008 and “the most beautiful of them all,” who posed nude, apart from a pair of the Italian fashion house’s boxers. He was also joined by his wife Victoria: both “very sensual,” says the daily. On Friday, the “most beautiful” was traded in for “another delight with the ball,” Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid’s 24-year-old star, the most expensive signing in history and “the most sought after man on the planet” of which his “repeated conquests and chronicles of his steamy nights” are proof, it surmises, The news, which was leaked by sources from both the football and fashion worlds, has still not been made official. According to La Gazzeta, Ronaldo will feature on advertising billboards for Armani’s younger clothes section in all of Europe’s major cities as of February next year. The advertising campaign will most likely take place in Milan, it adds, stressing that this is the first time Giorgio Armani has chosen a footballer that doesn’t play for AC. “This time it’s the turn of the international media’s favourite footballer; one that plays for Real Madrid, drinks champagne with Paris Hilton in Los Angeles and sails his boat around the Mediterranean,” concludes La Gazzeta.

Firstly, let me say that I think it’s foolish of Armani to NOT offer David Beckham a new contract to appear in another year of underwear ads. Yes, it makes sense to switch up models with each new year but Beckham helped Armani reach new heights in underwear sales. If you also consider that with Becks comes his wifey Victoria Beckham in her own underwear ads … it just makes sense. That being said, if they had to replace Becks with anyone it is very smart that they went with another high profile footballer. Cristiano Ronaldo has always struck me as David Beckham, Jr. (but with a crispier tan) so he would be the most natural heir to this campaign. I’m very curious to see what Ronaldo’s Armani underwear ads will look like. Will his bulge measure up … in sales? I guess we will soon find out.
