Top models, beware. It’s nothing out of the ordinary when we see a movie star or an athlete advertising a product. But it’s not every day that a former leader and a Nobel Peace Prize winner becomes a model. In a campaign to promote the company’s luggage and travel accessories, Luis Vuitton, hired former Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev, the man and the map-like birthmark. Gorbachev will join Scarlett Johanssen, Catherine Deneuve Andre Agassi, and Steffi Graf who also model for the luxurious French company. Gorbachev’s first gig as a model was in a Pizza Hut commercial.
Johanssen awaits Mikhail.
