In the annals (yes, there are two N’s in that, even if you’re discussing celebritybuttplugs.com) of celebrity endorsements, there are many cautionary tales. Think “Babe for Baco’s!” Think “Michael Jackson for Match.com.” We may be looking at the latest victim of bad synergy.
Say hello to the face of stinky cheese:
That’s Cat Deeley. Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of her: she’s a British celebrity. Nobody expects you to have heard of her. Well, at least she WILL be the face of cheese, if the Stilton Perfume people have their way.
Yes, I said Stilton Perfume.
Nigel White, of the SCA, brushed off suggestions that it might not be the most alluring of scents.
“Blue Stilton cheese has a very distinctive, mellow aroma and our perfumier was able to capture the key essence of that scent and recreate it in what is an unusual but highly wearable perfume,” he said.
“While we don’t have quite as generous a budget as some of her other endorsements, we would love Miss Deeley to be the face of Eau de Stilton and look forward to hearing what she thinks of the scent.”

Sounds like it might become a wedge issue among her fans . . .

This site can read YOUR mind!

You little mind reader, you. I was thinking, Stilton cheese perfume? Have they ever heard of a guy’s smelly nut sack on a scorching summer day?
Good Lord, I keep thinking I am seeing Eau de Stiletto….
I wonder what sort of perfume I’d make…tarty and fresh? Flowerly? Spicy? Hmm.
Thinks: Lips, stay pursed.
That site IS reading my mind. How bizarre.
SG, I think tarty, spicy and fresh would work. I mean, market it right and you could retire.
Hell,that’s three out of the five Spice Girls right there . . .
True enough. A record would sell the perfume…the perfume would sell the record. I see a great future here.
But I do not WANT to know what the Spice Girls smell like. Probably like the bottom of a pub ashtray if it were full of Monistat.
At the very yeast . . .
Yeesh!
What an unsavory…way to put it!
Say “curdled, hardened milk products!”
Are you referring to their tits, Raincoaster?
I faintly recall reading a horror story involving Stilton cheese from one of those cheap Crown Book gothic story compilations…It took place in England of course.
Perhaps this…is what they refer to.
ummm …. ahhhh
Illicit cheese
I presume this SCA is the Stilton Cheese Association? That acronym is also used by Sexual Compulsives Anaonymous, and us idjits that hit each other with sticks. Speculation on the cross-over could be hazardous to my health.
Yes, the idea that sexually compulsive mold fetishists are reenacting the Battle of Hastings and want Cat Deely to play Harold does not bear thinking about.
On the other hand, cheese=goooooood! I actually just finished an article on Stickleman cheese, which is Stilton-style cheese made in the same location, in the old-fashioned style. So it’s sort of SCA in the historical sense, while being apostate in the SCA Stilton Cheesemaker’s Association sense.
