    Test Pattern: Hepburn falls into The Gap - Test Pattern - MSNBC.com

    Looks like her son's sense of value has also fallen into the Gap.

    Quoted: Gael Fashingbauer Cooper offers her unique slant on the pop culture world, from TV commercials to the latest "American Idol" gossip,  in her entertainment blog

      It is not as if we are seeing footage of the real, private Audrey advertising for the Gap. Since her entertainer persona was and is for public consumption, I don't have an issue with it, especially given that a sizable donation was made to her children's foundation.

      Dear PopNFresh,

      I understand your point, however, I don't think that the Audrey Hepburn herself would have been game for advertising for such a huge corporate giant such as The GAP, considering the previous allegations and settlement brought forth against The GAP by sweatshop workers in Saipan for dangerous working conditions, unpaid labor and forcible abortions... but who knows, maybe in today's setting, she'd have done it anyway.....who's to say. Thanks for the "point, counterpoint" though.

      I had not thought about it from that angle. Thanks for pointing it out. With her involvment in Unicef, of course she would loathe representing any company with the GAP's reputation.
