Dead Celebrity the New Face of Gap Inc
Just how bad are things at The Gap Inc. (Public, NYSE:GPS)? I’ll tell you. They have just chosen a deceased celebrity as their spokesperson. Press release. Kind of sheds some light on the state of the Gap brand…
The good news is that Jeremy Piven’s face is no longer gracing the homepage of Gap.com. For those experiencing Jeremy Piven Gap.com withdrawal, fear not. His mug can still be found on this page of the site.
Audrey Hepburn is the new face of Gap. For now, she is promoting the skinny pants. Gap is also working on another clothing line that will be promoted by Ms. Hepburn. It’s called the Gap Shroud. Can’t wait!
Q. Why specifically did Gap Inc choose Audrey as their Fall model?
A. Because Marilyn Monroe turned down their offer…
Look, if the living refuses to don your duds, it’s time to move on to another demographic. The deceased!
