There's no lie.

Rebelle is the UK's fastest-selling celebrity perfume, selling over 2 million bottles since its February launch. The British paper also reports that at this rate, Rebelle is on pace sell "a record-breaking 4 million by the end of the year."

How much did Rih pay to be their face ?

They obviously paid for ha.

Your fave WOULD have to pay for damages she'd incur to the brand seeing as she can only wear tacky, not-fitted-for-her-body dresses.

So she is the face of a racist brand? I don't believe that is something to be proud of.

Well, if she excites change and they start using more POC, then it could be a good thing.

If they're just using her for her name with no intention of actually changing who they use, model wise, to represent their company won't be seen until her time with them is up.

You don't get payed, big brands like LV, Chanel and Dior pay poorly in comparison to H&M and GAP for example, is all about exposure.

Except I'm not, it broke the record and sold 4 million bottles there by the end of 2012
How did we even start discussing fragrances
Anyway I'm glad she's breaking race barriers, only the best selling black artist of this millennium with the vest selling album by a black artist this decade

EDIT: Mike already clocked
He failed to mention though how it sold more than Brit's, Jlo's and Bey's fragrances that year too

I know right? It's not that they're racist it's just that the majority of high fashion brands are European and is apart of European high culture of course they're going to favour their own like in India where the majority of their models are Indian, is that racist too?

Cool! I love Charlize perfume commercial for Dior. Rihanna fits right in

The one she's walking and taking off her clothes? Sexiest thing ever

[RihannasVeryOwn]

Honestly though, I cannot help but see the irony in girls who's fave's biggest endorsements in terms of fashion is H&M coming for someone who's been the face of Balmain, Gucci, Armani, and now Dior, like there are levels to this ****

Now this is just blatantly not true .

Jourdan was the first black model SINCE Naomi Campbell, but since Jourdan, lots of black models have walked in their runways shows and have been featured in campaigns. (Well, lots compared to before.) Of course the large majority of girls are still white, but let's not exaggerate.

Rihanna better slay though

That's true, however there is still a long way to go.

For 15 years – or 30 runway seasons in fashion speak – Prada had no black models on its catwalks. After the 1990s, a decade of fashion in which the clothes were being overshadowed by the larger than life supermodels wearing them, Miuccia Prada took control of matters by hiring a seemingly endless stream of white, eastern European models. Then came Jourdan Dunn in 2008, followed by a growing list of black, Asian and Hispanic models, including Malaika Firth, Prada’s first black campaign star in 19 years. It’s a known fact within the fashion world that where Prada goes, the rest of the industry follows. And so the very same brand that ushered in an era that shut out non-white models helped bring models of colour back in.
