Jeep Pimps Out Commander To launch its new 2006 Jeep Commander, Jeep enlisted Missy Elliot and MAkinE Studios to create a pimped out, hip-hop spot which merges vehicle with music video in a very cool manner. It's certainly much better than most other lame-ass car commercials out there today. Originally designed as a teaser, which aired during MTV’s VMAs, the spots were selected by Jeep to be the primary on-air promotional spot for audiences nationwide. View the commercial here. Jennifer Lopez to Launch Baby Head Smelling Perfume Jennifer Lopez, whose fragrance company has already created three scents, Glow, Still and Live, has asked her smell experts to create a new fragrance that smells like the top of a baby's head. Lopez explained, "They were like, 'Let's get specific, what smells intrigue you right now?' and I was like, 'Well, babies. The smell of a baby’s head, you know, the way the top of their heads smell.' As freaky as that may sound, Lopez was also very clear that no babies' heads would be used in the manufacturing process, "None! None, please, please, I don't need those kinds of accusations about babies. No babies went into that bottle!" Hilary Swank Joins Key to Cure Cancer Campaign Oscar winner Hilary Swank has joined the Saks Fifth Avenue Key to The Cure cancer campaign, following Nicole Kidman and Charlize Theron. The Key to The Cure is a two day shopping event help at Saks stores nationwide October 28 and 29. In PSAs promoting the event, Swank will wear a Swarovski crystal covered Diane Von Furstenberg t-shirt. Five percent of sales over the two day period will be donated to cancer research programs. Lone Marketer Sticks With kate Moss Kate Moss may has been ditched by many marketers over her cocaine use but one is holding out and capitalizing on the publicity. London cosmetics company Rimmel, who has used Moss previously, is keeping her on and will feature her in a commercial highlighting her partying persona with Rimmel standing on for coke when she needs a boost the morning after. The name of the advertised line: Recovery. How appropriate. Ashlee Simpson Boots Madonna Off 'Blender' Cover Madonna's done her fair share of lip syncing for sure but she must have truly broken an actual vocal chord when she heard Blender Magazine decided to feature famed lip-syncer Ashlee Simpson instead of her on magazine's December cover. Apparently, Madonna was supposed to appear on the cover but the publisher dropped her in favor of Simpson. Blender won't comment but we're pretty sure the magazine is simply adhering to the "young trumps old" publishing maxim. Madonna's handler downplayed the situation saying, "She's too busy healing from her horse-riding accident. I was talking to several publications, including Blender. Trust me, you'll see plenty of Madonna in the weeks to come." As for Simpson, we bet she's jumping for joy. She needs all the positive exposure she can get after that SNL incident. Elle MacPherspon Fronts For Blackglama Mink Elle McPherson is the next in a long line of celebrities to appear in mink company Blackglama's ad campaign, "What Becomes a Legend Most?" MacPherson, 42, was big in the '90's, made several movies and had a recurring role on Friends. McPherson follows Judy Garland, Marlene Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Rita Hayworth, Diana Ross, Carol Burnett, Lucille Ball, Ray Charles, Barbra Streisand, Cher, Linda Evangelista, Gisele Bundchen, Cindy Crawford and others, all of whom appeared in the mink company's ad campaigns. Did we just wake up on another planet or something? We thought Hollywood celebrities, being all liberal and such would, for sure, be against promoting mink. Oh wait, Hollywood is its own weird, screwed up planet. The campaign will kick off this fall. Sienna Miller Could Replace Kate Moss As Burberry Spokesmodel Following Kate Moss's trouble with the white stuff and her losing marketing deals with H&M, Burberry and Chanel, it looks like actress Sienna Miller is talking to Burberry's to become the company's spokes model. In other news, Burberry photographer Mario Testino is throwing a hissy fit and may quit because, apparently, wanted to work with Moss. H&M Drops Moss From Campaign - For Real This Time After a week of debate, Swedish clothier H&M has, finally, decided to drop Kate Moss as spokesmodel and cancel an upcoming ad campaign that would have featured Moss. Last week, news buzzed about her cocaine use and that didn't sit well with H&M brass. Company spokeswoman Liv Asarnoj said, "After evaluating the situation, we have decided that a campaign with Kate Moss is not consistent with H&M's clear disassociation from drugs." Sharapova Mobile Billboard Supports Canon Wall Postings OK, then. So that's how those tennis balls got embedded in the brick wall we saw a few days ago. The tennis star is driving around on a mobile billboard, ready to attack the next, unadorned wall with a rapid fire collection of tennis balls. Teri Hatcher Colors Her Hair With Clairol Having had grey hair since the age of 25, Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher is quite comfortable with with it and has recently signed a marketing agreement with Clairol to become spokes person for the company's Nice 'n Easy hair color product. So, what did hatcher do after having her hair fawned over all day during the LA photo shoot? She went home and took a shower. We hope that doesn't mean she doesn't like the product.
