Ok, so it was no Ocean's 13--but was Brad Pitt as impressed with his confusing 30-second monologue in that Chanel No.5 commercial as the rest of us someone was?

SNL spoofed Brad Pitt's Chanel ad this weekend--which isn't exactly surprising since the original was just begging for it. And they nailed it. Click through to watch.

Ann Romney Gets No Fashion Love: Outspoken Democrat Diane von Furstenberg admitted that she's "not sure" how Anne Romney obtained one of her dresses to wear to a rally, and the fashion PR establishment has been pretty silent on the First Lady hopeful's outfit choices.

Brad Pitt's Chanel No. 5 commercial is out and we have to admit it confuses us. Here are 10 other perfume commercials that also make us say, "Um, what?"

Brad Pitt's Chanel No. 5 commercial left us rather speechless. We weren't quite sure what to make of the intensely-acted 30 second spot, but YouTube commenters, known, of course, for being kind and judicious, had a lot to say about it. There's some mean stuff, sure, but there are also some hilarious Fight Club references. A sampling:

Brad Pitt's $7 million Chanel campaign is finally here. It marks the first time Chanel has ever used a dude to front the iconic fragrance. So how did Brad stack up to past No. 5 faces like Marilyn Monroe and Catherine Deneuve?

Check out Brad Pitt asking the Chanel No. 5 bottle a lot of sexy questions in his best cop/reporter voice.

Remember back in May when Chanel announced that Brad Pitt would be the first-ever male face of Chanel No. 5? So, that was real, and we're going to see what the ad looks like in less than two weeks. A bit more about what you can expect from the campaign--and Pitt's paycheck.

Chanel announced today that Brad Pitt would be the new face of Chanel No. 5--making him the first ever male spokesperson for the iconic fragrance. That got us thinking: Could other storied brands go the same route as Chanel? Will we be seeing more handsome male faces in some of our favorite campaigns? If that's the case, supermodel Coco Rocha is not going to be happy. She tweeted earlier today: "No working model is happy for Brad Pitt and his new gig as the `face' of Chanel No. 5.#ThingsBitterModelsSay Cc: @Models@StyleWatchMag." Ouch. No doubt, Rocha would have leapt at the chance to represent the brand, whose eponymous designer she shares a first name with. But while we highly doubt models like Rocha will get edged out by leading male actors, we couldn't resist the chance to re-cast some of our favorite ads--with a little more testosterone this time. Click through to see what James Franco, David Beckham, One Direction, and more, would look like as the faces of some of the most iconic fashion brands.

It's confirmed: Brad Pitt is so pretty he's actually been tapped to be the face of a woman's perfume. And not just any perfume, mind you, the perfume: Chanel No. 5. When rumors began swirling yesterday about Pitt's new gig at Chanel, we were skeptical. I mean, the dude is following in the footsteps of Marilyn Monroe, Nicole Kidman and Audrey Tautou. Safe to say, he doesn't exactly fit the bill. But according to Paris Vogue, Chanel has confirmed in a press release today that he is indeed the new face of the perfume. That means he's the first male face of the iconic fragrance.

Two movies chronicling the life of Gabrielle Chanel were slated for release in 2009. One, Audrey Tautou's Coco Avant Chanel, opened here last Septe
