Lady GaGa and Cyndi Lauper star in MAC’s Viva Glam Spring 2010 advertising campaign. The advert is promoting Viva Glam GaGa and Viva Glam Cyndi. The artwork will debut officially in February, the products will be in stores March 18.
This poster makes me think of colour blind ponies frolicking in a field, splashing neon paint all over the landscapes wherever they tread. The poster is all about the bold, striking reds/ pinks for that burlesque, burnt-down brothel decor look.
It’s ten different kinds of photoshopped fierce and eleven kinds of over-the-top. It only scores the sensible ten out of ten for photoshop, because both women are actually recognisable. They need to rehydrate MooMoo Carey’s half-dead, manacled photoshoppers to work on this kind of specialist shish. It takes real skill to keep that much makeup and that much hair on the right side of drag.

I love that Cyndi looks way younger.
*Dies* They both look shopped to holy hell. Who knows what these brands are thinking any more.
I guess that is as good a description as any. They are both a mite weird in my opinion, and I would have to be paid to see anyone of their shows.
Colin.
I think Lady GaGa would be pretty good – at the very least she sings live/ puts on a show which is more than her peers do.
what aree they selling anyway? clown makeup? lol
good pairing, thoiugh. Cyndi Lauper was the Lady Gaga of the 80s
I think they look like mother and daughter – not sure which would be which.
Oddly enough, they are selling a brand of cosmetics that was inspired by transgenders/drag queens.
The 100% proceeds go to their respective lipsticks go a foundation that helps fight HIV/AIDS.
Believe me, this ad is aimed at appealing to their vast Gay audiences just like the RuPaul, Christina Aguilera, Kevin Aviance, Amanda Lepore and other Gay icons’ Viva Glam spreads.
It’s odd that I never heard that mentioned anywhere before.
I know it’s a charitable thing – glad they’re not doing it all for show.
Lord, I did mangle that last post didn’t I?
