The British Airport Authority (BAA) will unveil an advertising campaign to advertise the kind of works (thanklessly) they are doing to improve facilities and conditions for their customers.
The new line of adverts will use the tag line “to fly for” and will run through all the BAA airports spots. The advertisements will highlight all the shops (duty free, anyone?) available at BAA airports.

It seems the cumulative dump from endorsements (first by St. John and then Shiseido: read here) has not deterred Angelia Jolie’s enthusiasm and she is not certainly shedding tears. The rumor is rife that Angelina Jolie is in talks with French fragrance maker Coty to create her Angelina Jolie line of fragrance. Coty has very recently successfully launched Sarah Jessica Perker Perfume range.
It seems along with restaurant, unveiling fragrance and perfumes make good business sense for celebrities. Other celebs who successfully launched perfumes include Jennifer Lopez, Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Gwen Stefani.
Angelina is also active on the social ground. She and her star husband recently donated $1 million for American and Iraqi children. A politically correct move, they could have picked any one, or the more needy one, you have the answer.

30+ mom (actually 33) of three (adopted included) Angelina Jolie has been replaced by Agyness Deyn for the Japanese cosmetics brand Shiseido.
Brad Pitts’ wife has been Japanese brand’s brand ambassador since 2006. After a successful stint of two years now she has to make way for a younger model in the form of British Supermodel Agyness Deyn. Agyness Deyn will first appear as the spokeswoman for the brand on Fall 2008 Maquillage ad campaign.
Before this, Angelina has lost another advertising contract last months when St. John ended a three-year contract of hers.

James Blunt, who for a brief period has been romantically involved with drama queen Paris Hilton has proved that he is not that blunt. He gave a high voltage sound byte (being real is ‘in’ now, must’ve learnt from Paris) saying that he can’t live without regular bedroom sessions and that sex is very important to him.
He also revealed that he loved to get sloshed and believes after-show parties are best perks of his job. Cool.
Whatever, I still like the breathtakingly beautiful former Sports Illustrated and Marie Claire model and La Senza’s face Petra Nemcova. My last post was about her. Take a look here (Not ideal for office environment, nudity ahead).
