Bye Bye Estee Lauder
One of the Estee Lauder boutique-type of brands, MAC, features an ad on their web site where Sandra Bernhardt calls Republican women thin-lipped bitches (among other things).
Cotillionite, Chez Diva, has more, including a link to the ad in question.
Sigh. When will these companies ever learn?

I you are a high end cosmetics line do you really want to po the people with money? Sarah gimme a break. Why would anyone by a cosmetic she advertises? They should fear it might do to them what happened to her.

I saw the commercial. I'd vastly prefer thin lips than those ugly things she's got.
I think they *want* to stir trouble.

I followed Chez Diva's link to the ad. They already changed it and removed the line. I wonder if anyone was able to save it....

Heh. They've done that within the last two hours.
But yeah, I'm sure it'll be on YouTube tomorrow.
No, not me.
Lawyers scare me.

Bernhard's lips look like she had concrete injections instead of botox. Never mind she has nothing to say of any value, but how the hell did they possibly decide to use somebody who has raised FUGLY to an art form for their spokesperson? What were they thinking when they turned her loose? I cannot wait to see her kick someone's ass for taking her makeup at an airport. That should be most interesting, but I can sort of see her point of view. What would she look like without it?
The world may never know.

Lips?
I thought it was an ad for British Dentistry :-)

I've never heard of this Bernhardt woman before & after seeing that ad, I'm glad. Her lips were all poofy & scary. I'd rather keep my lack-of-lips than look like that.
