| Endorse Me |
 |
 |
Celebrity
endorsements, whilst often amusing, should at
least try and stick to their relative areas of
expertise. Patricia Field's foray into designer
Diet Coke bottles left us feeling flat, but her
much anticipated range of clothing for M&S is
sending fashionable SATC fans into pre-spending
spasms.

Sadly
those pesky celebs can't seem to keep their fingers
out of the endorsement pies, not to mention the latest
fad for actually creating their own brands. Dr. Dre
is launching his cognac 'Aftermath' later this year
alongside his forthcoming album, 'Detox', both Cavalli
and Trump
have their own vodkas, whilst Marilyn Manson clearly
loves his Mansinthe.

Now,
Emmerdale starlet, Adele Silva, wants us to believe
she's learnt all about wine with her limited edition
range for Stowells. Personally, I might plump
for some 'Coke Zero Zero Seven' instead: if Bond's
going teetotal (and sugar-free), it can't be wrong.
Soap star wine at £4.46 however? I might pass.
