Bongo Goes The Whore Route Again

With the exception of Rachel Bilson, the last few spokespeople Bongo has chosen basically make me feel like they are trying to sell cheap sex with a woman of questionable morals. Yesterday in one of the most annoyingly written press releases of all time, Bongo announced that Kim Kardashian would be their new spokesperson, Oh, not Kim Kardashian the sex tape loving queen.

Nope, "The marketing campaign embraces Kim's natural sexiness but adds a touch of innocence and sweetness to the pin up theme. The ads show Kim striking playful poses on a swing and inside an oversized heart." "Kim is not only gorgeous, sexy and confident, but she is also kind and gracious. In a lovely gesture, Kim handwrote thank you notes to the crew after the photo shoot. We are thrilled to have her join the ranks of past Bongo spokeswomen such as Vanessa Minnillo, Nicole Richie and Rachel Bilson."

If I were Rachel Bilson I would have my lawyer write a letter to Bongo and tell them to stop using my name in the same sentence with the other group. Also, I'm not exactly sure that signing an autograph with your phone number and prices is exactly a the handwritten thank you note we are all imagining with that statement. I bet you would also be shocked to know that Kim is now a television star. Oh yes. According to Bongo anyway. Kim is a huge star like she is well on her way to A list. They of course probably said the same about Vanessa and Nicole also.

In the one quote attributed to Kim but most certainly not is this: "This is a fun, young, fresh campaign and I am honored to be a part of it. What I am excited about is how Bongo jeans fit. They hug my curves in all the right places!"

What I'm sure she is honored about is the fact that someone was willing to pay her money to model clothes and she didn't have to sleep with them first.
