The Sweet Smell of Success
I wouldn't have pegged Erykah Badu as the type to go the mainstream advertising route, but more power to her and to Tom Ford for choosing the singer as the face of his new, yet-to-be-named women's fragrance.
We should help Tom Ford out and come up with a fragrance name to match the ad campaign's face.

YEA BADU! GET THAT MONEY MAMA!!!
fa real tho. we need more people like her in the public eye. putting her in ads would def. be a positive for me. Plus we need more people like her with money in their pockets so they can do something positive with it.
Can I be her stylist/MUA/hairstylist for the ads. I mean, she needs one.
Ahh, I love her style….it's so original and refreshing…
I love Tom Ford and I love Erykah Badu. Well, hope she doesn't have her
Well, as long as she doesn’t have her vulva (yes, I said vulva) all out like the women in Tom’s other ads (Gucci G-shaped pubes, perfume covering labia of impeccably waxed woman…). If it’s a tasteful nude, great.
I know he likes naked women. He fought HARD for a pregnant AJ’s ass crack to be shown in that naked issue.
Gorgeous Black Women
Um, NSFW Tom Ford ads with women:

The G one was from when he was with Gucci.
I like her style, too, but it's not one that makes you think, "wow, I wanna smell like her."
BMD, i agree completely!
Ok that pic is a BAD example of her style. obviously.
#5 OMG at those Tom Ford ads! they are out of control. But strangely…i kinda like em. i wish i could get my vag to look that smooth. LOL
I just thinks she's so cool…her own but I do get the whole 'out there' thing…
Daria, who is AJ?
I like this pairing and Tom Ford is hott.

oh thanks AJ.
Love Erykah, and her style….for the most part, so i'm happy for her.
1. Tom Ford is NOT sexy, unless you like cockeyed gay men.
2. He's VULGAR, and those ads are not SEXY at all.
3. He tries way to hard to be provocative, and usually fails.
4. His mens fragrance stinks
5. He's a douchebag
Why is that all spammers have the WORST grammar?
BMD,
Ha! I just said the same thing in another post.
I do not like Erykah…something about her…or maybe more than one thing about her gets under my skin.
The TRUTH does'nt need need good grammar.
Or a half assed STYLIST/MUA.
^^Uh…I wasn't calling you a spammer. I think the spam got removed.
