Yeah, 2.5 million in sales the first time around, tells people how boring Lily Allen is. Every sold out show in Europe, America and Canada received a good review, so make her go away, A #1 hit, and a really good C.D. with potential hit material, sounds like somebody that has no idea what their doing. Working hard from the time Lily Allen was 15 years old, shows that you really believe in research. People that use the Daily Mail and tabloid magazines as a source of information are A**holes.
This message was written at 2pm Anonymous so you surely you should have been heading off for your next lesson rather than writing such subjective tosh.
2.5m of what exactly? Sold out shows? I could sell out a show in my front room if I wanted. A really good CD with hit potential? In your view perhaps but seeing as kids your age probably think Coldplay are granddad rockers I’ll remain sceptical about that one.
Now off to class with you, before I give you lines.
I can see Lily’s “people” reading your rant and having a quiet chuckle about how clever they’ve been. A young celebrity with plenty of money ties up modelling contract with famous Parisian couturier… it’s every girls dream.
However, Lily Allen’s core market is 15-25 year old females, much more in keeping with her previous fashion foray with “Lily Loves” (New Look). Is this sub-brand going to continue or will the crossover from New Look to Chanel be a step too far? Perhaps scary old Karl will be doing a diffusion range for New Look…. Matthew Williamson seems to be having great success with H&M so in these cash-strapped times anything is possible!
Also, anyone who believes that Lily is your average “girl next door” needs to stop taking the Prozac. Her father is an infamous TV actor (who left her mother but presumably kept up with the CSA payments), her mother a film producer, she attended Millfield and Bedales (£25k a year) and got a membership at Groucho’s when she was 17. Now, I’ve been in marketing for 20 years which probably renders me out of touch with the “real world”, but I think I’d be hard pushed to describe that as an average upbringing. The mockney persona (a la Jamie Oliver/Guy Ritchie) along with the school rebel image is pure PR hype too. I’m still struggling to understand what she brings to the Chanel party… anyone got any ideas?
Your both idiots. Your not looking for facts, your only looking for arguments. That makes both of you a**holes
Actually, in English we say “You’re both idiots” and you are a letter short in your spelling of a***holes…. perhaps more attention in English lessons would be more appropriate.
Anon - the fact is, as Caveman and myself have stated, that this brand fit does not tally up. Most schoolgirls cannot afford £1000 handbags and the people that can afford them don’t give a rat’s ass about Lily Allen. Chanel should have put their money elsewhere.
As long as you know what it means who cares. 2.5 million in c.d. sales resulted in the second best selling c.d. in Europe (losing only to Amy Winehouse) My opinion of her live performances are based on written reviews, and her mention of sold out shows on the twitter page. (W.T.F.) does 2pm have to do with my point? Lily Allen’s core audience might be made up of 15 25 yr old people but based on audience photographs their a lot older than that. Her education and upbringing have nothing to do with her self struggle to make it the music business, nor does getting into a club when your 17 yrs old. There is some hype but that’s how it works. It sometime get diluted with puke articles like this, and that’s why people can’t tell the truth from the lies. That and they just don’t want too.
Her audience is not (Made up) of school girls. Read my last point. She has a 35 year old demographic as well. I’m not suggesting that 15 year old females go out and buy Chanel. But the pictures of attractive females after those pic’s have been airbrushed is misleading. People comment that this is not a good idea, but for who? They don’t mention owning a Chanel handbag, so the point would be, I can’t afford it, but the picture really does it for me, so i know what class is. That’s a bit hypocritical don’t you think?
Assuming that you are British, I’ll take your advice on proper diction and spelling, point well taken.
Anon… read what people say before getting on your high horse! At no point in Geoff’s article does he knock her musical ability (as defined by sales) and her ability to fill venues around the world with screaming teens (and their mothers apparently…note to self, get myself there next time she’s in town). She’s made a success of the music business (with a small degree of parental help it has to be said) and is to be commended for it. The point we were trying to make was that Chanel are spending considerable sums of money on a questionable marketing platform, probably on the whim of somebody at the top of that organisation (perhaps Karl Lagerfeld himself).
Everything you read (in The Times, The Mirror or Hello) is subject to some kind of “spin” As you quite rightly say “there is some hype but that’s how it works”, so you’re well aware of this, but as you get older you begin to understand the difference between “fabricated image” and “real personality”. Enduring celebrities have real personality that can add value to a brand if used correctly.
The use of celebrity endorsements can work well for a brand (David Beckham/Emporio Armani is a good example because the brand is aspirational but affordable, football fans CAN afford a pair of Armani pants) but can also be counter-productive (the Morrisons TV ads with their roster of rent-a-celeb appearances bringing nothing to the brand except a feeling of “how much has this all cost”).
In the past, Chanel have associated themselves with stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Nicole Kidman and Catherine Deneuve. Talented and beautiful as she is I don’t think Lily is in their league yet.
High horse? No, making a point with records sales, that she’s not boring, yes. I’m also curious to see how the campaign goes, Lily Allen did look very sexy (& not airbrushed) on the 2007 cover of G.Q. magazine. She can do it again.
OK, facts and figures.
2.6 million records sold…. that’s 0.03% of the worlds population.
Leona Lewis has sold more than 6.5 million copies of her debut album. I’m not saying Leona is a better talent but it shows you the power of “hype”.
And, by the way, ALL GQ photoshoots are airbrushed…
It wasn’t airbrushed or photoshopped, but she is wearing Spanx.
