We reported two one months ago on brand ambassador (and at times, opera singer) Anna Netrebko's new deal with Schwarzkopf, which features the Russian soprano in hair color promotions, advertisements, and a new line of "Opera Star Collection" hair colors, one of which boasts Anna on the box (she's shade #879). There's even a new song, "Brilliance". Schwarzkopf has put up a teaser "making-of" video of the commercial, which you can also find on YouTube (in lower quality):
We think it's brilliant -- if you can't afford Netrebko's CDs or splurge for her singing at the Wiener Staatsoper, you can buy Anna on a budget: her hair color collection goes for $5.00 a box. Since OC doesn't dabble in at-home hairdye kits, we'll wait for Anna's next venture. We're hoping she'll launch a line of clip-in hair extensions. Or press-on nails. Heck yes, we'd even shell-out for a spray-on tanning mist (Lohan style)!
Below are some screen shots from the website and teaser. Frankly, when you use enough Photoshop to turn an opera singer into Kat Von D's Doppelgänger, it's time to walk away from the Mac and put down the stylus:
