That smug self satisfied bitch Emma Watson is the new face of Coco Mademoiselle....

"Emma Watson is to be the new face of Chanel perfume. The 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' star has won a two-year contract worth £1 million to promote Coco Mademoiselle.

The 18-year-old actress will take over from fellow British star Keira Knightley, 23, when her contract ends this summer. A source said: "Emma has been excitedly telling friends that she is going to be replacing Keira." Emma landed the deal with the French fashion house after signing up with top modelling agency Storm in an attempt to branch out from acting.

Chanel has been preparing Emma for her new role by dressing her for film premieres and parties. A source said: "She has been slowly integrated into the Chanel brand. Once it became clear she is growing into a beautiful young woman and wears the Chanel brand so elegantly, they had to sign her up."

She annoys me to the point where I want to tear my own eyes out so I can throw them at her to wipe the smug smile off her face

Oh you're fucking shitting my wick

I would say I'd boycott Chanel, but seeing as I've never bought anything from there anyway it would be a rather half-arsed gesture. That said, I do have a certain aptitude for half-arsed so - I am so fucking boycotting Chanel!

Personally I hope the bint gets a crack habit/knocked up/hit by a killer whale falling from the sky ASAP

Oh, god. What a dumb-ass choice, Chanel. Well, I never really liked the brand anyways. The double Cs... bleh.

Not the best choise, seeing that her fans couldn't really afford it.... BUT I like Emma Watson, always thought she was nice.

Good on her!

Well I wear Chanel Allure, it's my favourite perfume (well that and L'eau D'Issey) and I don't really want to boycott Chanel, but I may try and find a perfume I love as much as Allure

The rumor about actress Emma Watson becoming a spokesperson for Chanel is false, although you will NOT hear that officially from the legendary couture house. Readers will recall that several days ago, a report published originally in UK tabloid The Daily Mail claimed that the Hermione Granger actress would become “new face of the Chanel fragrance Coco Mademoiselle,” and had “signed a two-year contract worth £3million with the French fashion house to promote the brand.”

This story was picked up by media worldwide, and the only report of a denial was found in one small story via Eonline which said the claim was “just a rumor”: “It’s false.” Today the LA Times blog has more on why this apparent denial of this rumor was not sent out immediately to counter the global press coverage. The blog cites an unnamed New York spokesperson for Chanel as saying “We’re not allowed to make statements when the reports are not true,” then continued to say “It’s the company’s policy not to make a statement if the report is not true.For instance, when Audrey Tautou’s contract was leaked to the press, we issued a statement because it was true, she was being put under contract.”

The LA Times blog then has this quote from the Chanel spokesperson, who says the house will NOT issue a written denial . “We are only allowed to speak to reporters about this. We cannot widely release a statement that the report isn’t true.” Even the Chanel spokesman’s name may not be used due to yet another strange set of corporate rules. “I cannot be quoted. Just say company spokesman,” she explained.

Most curious indeed. So as it would seem the report of Emma Watson becoming a spokesperson for Chanel is indeed false, we are working to get more detailed response from reps from the actress. More when we get it!

I'm glad it's false 'cause she's not even pretty. She kinda of looks like a rat wearing a wig having its whiskers pulled... in Chanel. =]
