PROMO FAB: Keri Hilson's First Flicks As The Face Of Avon

Apr 14 | by Natasha

We announced Keri Hilson's stint as a the new face of Avon cosmetics about a month ago. And now, it's been confirmed by Avon and Miss Keri Baby herself. She speaks on the fabulous opportunity when you read the rest...

In WWD, an Avon rep explained, “We had a great partnership with Jennifer Hudson, and we found that so powerful that, in the same spirit, we wanted to take it a step further. Keri just brings a youth and vitality to our brand. I think that she’s just the perfect transition.” Keri added, “I’m really careful. I don’t want to be affiliated with too many brands. It’s got to make sense, and it makes sense [with Avon.] I love fragrance. I love beauty. I love to teach women that they should feel confident and feel good about themselves for themselves.”

Keri's also been named the new face of Avon’s Imari fragrance. And she's in good company--Zoe Saldana, Reese Whitherspoon, Jennifer Hudson and other Hollywood heavyweights are in that spot too. Nice. Here's another one of her first Avon promo pics:

Nice.

Wow--I "can believe" the

Wow--I "can believe" the negativity on here. I just started selling Avon, and before that I never really spent that much time checking them out. But this is not your grandma's Avon any more. The funny thing is I learned everything I have after joining, which is the complete opposite of what I normally do. I normally due diligence something to death until I lose interest. But like you all are criticizing, but you all know the name, because it's the oldest (123 years and counting) cosmetics giant in the world. So when it comes down to it, business is business, would you rather contract with a boutique brand or with a global brand? Keri is doing the dang thing business-wise, even if the music ain't hitting it, she's still getting paid. I wish I was getting paid to be the face of Avon, but for now I'm happy just to be a rep, corporate is next.

I agree with the not caring

I agree with the not caring about Keri part, but you are on a gossip/celebrity site. If you want to hear about people losing their jobs, go to the Wall Street Journal or turn on the news.

It's great that Ms. Keri has

It's great that Ms. Keri has a gig with Avon because that company has steadily worked at reducing the number of black employees. There are 6,000+ employees in the U.S. and about 5% of them are black. Less than 1% are in senior management. So much for diversity.
