Gisele Bündchen to star in Apple Mac campaign?
Wednesday, May 31, 2006 - 10:10 AM EST

Brazilian-model Gisele Bündchen has recently posed for Apple Computer, Inc. to represent their Macintosh computer line, according to a recent announcement on her official website. The official Gisele Bündchen site stated: "Gisele fotografa campanha para a linha de computadores da Apple, MAC [sic] (Macintosh), nos Estados Unidos." In English, "Gisele has been photographed for an Apple ad campaign for the MAC (Macintosh) line of computers, in the United States."

A visit to Gisele's site at 11:15am EDT today shows that the blurb has since been pulled.

No other information is known at this time.

slow newz day?

Hopefully by revealing this information they're not taking the same risk as Samsung. How deep does Apple's secrecy go? I guess if I had Billy boy as a nemesis, it'd be pretty deep.

alright *rolls eyes* ..bring on the hard drive jokes

May 31, 06 - 10:44 am Comment from: Jimbo von Winskinheimer

New campaign: Buy a Mac, get a supermodel!

May 31, 06 - 10:44 am Comment from: Charko

She's got a nice German name.

'Bündchen' is used in textiles and means cuff.

May 31, 06 - 10:44 am Comment from: Jimbo von Winskinheimer

New slogan: Mac users: We have not had "floppy disks" in years!

May 31, 06 - 10:45 am Comment from: Macaday

She's a great ad for Macs.

Add the Macbook wherever you want it here...

It's gotta be slow with this article and the "Applematters" one.....

May 31, 06 - 10:52 am Comment from: i heart macdude

if true, this is sooooooo going to backfire...unless done tongue-in-cheek. Then it could work.

May 31, 06 - 10:53 am Comment from: david

Slow news? That's great news!

donnie must be ugly

May 31, 06 - 10:53 am Comment from: Homer

Mmmmmmmmm... Hard Drive

What will be the payoff of that campaign "Just do her" ?

May 31, 06 - 11:00 am Comment from: macromancer

(drools)

Whats with every person feeling like they gotta say "slow news day".

May 31, 06 - 11:01 am Comment from: Curious

Brazil is a nice country colonized by italians, germans, portuguese, afro....similar to the US.
I wanna visit the South of Brazil where Gisele comes from :D

May 31, 06 - 11:07 am Comment from: db

Donnie,

How is further advertisement of the Mac (what we have been begging for year about) SLOW NEWS!?!? If apple is truly expanding mac ads, especially with SEX appeal, this is big news!

May 31, 06 - 11:11 am Comment from: Mac Daddy

I believe there's a line of makeup called MAC. I wonder if that's what she posed for?

May 31, 06 - 11:15 am Comment from: Yo

Unfortunately, there are many pics in which she looks like a man. I vote for Jessica Alba, Angelina Jolie, or Monica Bellucci. They look like women no matter what photo or video they're in.

May 31, 06 - 11:17 am Comment from: Mac12EightK

Sure beats the Dodgeball guy.

May 31, 06 - 11:27 am Comment from: theNewMacDude

I'm with "Yo". There's nothing super about a bag of bones that struts on the catwalk. Give me a real woman.

May 31, 06 - 11:41 am Comment from: Big Al

She is obviously going to be the spokesperson for the new iPorn software.

Putting some life into iLife.

May 31, 06 - 11:42 am Comment from: trevor

This sounds like it could be very CHEESY.

May 31, 06 - 11:43 am Comment from: MacDaddy

The new ad is "Buy a Mac and be her MacDaddy!"

BTW, Mac Daddy, you're stealing my name.

May 31, 06 - 11:44 am Comment from: Trevor

Oh, I get it...

Giselle Bundchen is a Mac.
Hillary Clinton is a PC.

May 31, 06 - 12:32 pm Comment from: ceramic

Trevor, exactly what I though of as well. I'm pretty sure they're about to produce a coupla female-only versions. Dunno bout Hillary tho...I'd pick dame Edna or Thatcher to represent the PC.

May 31, 06 - 12:38 pm Comment from: Wealthy Industrialite

"Smithers, have Gisele Bündche killed."

- Steve Jobs

May 31, 06 - 12:39 pm Comment from: Cubert

Please let her be naked! Please let her be naked! Please let her be naked!.....

May 31, 06 - 12:43 pm Comment from: R

Errm... I read the translation, but still think it might be something to do with these MAC people rather than our Mac people:

Trevor, Hillary's more like a Speak-N-Spell. The operator puts in the talking points and she regurgitates them.

May 31, 06 - 12:59 pm Comment from: rasterbator

Maybe Apple is doing another co-op marketing plan. How about Victoria + iPod? Lots of chicks ilistening to iPod in their g-strings.

Macaday:

I really preffer her:

Nice hardware.

May 31, 06 - 02:37 pm Comment from: matt

Finally!!!!

Apple may have finally found out the key to selling products. It doesn't have to be translucent white, as long as theres a babe selling it

To Charko:

There are a lot of Germans in Brazil.
If I recall, correctly, I happened upon
a woman with a German accent working in
a restuarant I frequented, almost daily.
She, indeed was from Brazil.
(That was several years ago.)

May 31, 06 - 07:55 pm Comment from: Cubert

Digital Kid,
You said it most simply of all.
