Portfolio reports that Lindsay Lohan has lost her ad campaign for Jill Stuart.
The rehab refugee’s replacement?
Hilary Swank.
It’s true the actress has an Oscar, an immense amount of talent, and killer abs.
But would you buy a dress from her?
Our guess is no, and here’s why:
Because much like puppies can smell their own moms, young women can sense when someone has been dressed, versus when they’ve actually picked a gown off the floor and gone with it.
Ms. Swank’s talent and poise are her own. But her plunging silk necklines and diamond-dripped details?
Those seem more out of place on the Next Karate Kid than a polar bear in the desert (and yes, that was a vague Lost reference, with apologies).
We’ll see how Stuart’s profits do next season. And then we’ll applaud her team when they hire a new face, like Sienna Miller, and let Swank get back to acting.

But we all know that Lindsay will try and sell anything for money, so just because she's in another ad doesn't compel me to buy. Also I dont think she dresses well at all. Tights??! Come on. Hilary Swank, although of course doing it for money, is not as overexposed, and therefore more intriguing ....to me anyways... and I envy her abs..... =)
