Tay says no to $14m underwear shoot
TAYLOR Swift has reportedly turned down a multi-million dollar offer to appear with boyfriend Calvin Harris in a new underwear ad for Armani.
The UK Mirror reports that Armani had approached the Bad Blood singer with a $ 13.9 million offer to appear in a new underwear campaign alongside her boyfriend, Scottish DJ Calvin Harris.
Harris, 31, has so far appeared in two campaigns for the label, but unnamed sources said Swift said no to the offer because “showing too much skin” would “damage her image”.
“If she was married to Calvin then things may be different,” the source stated.
Armani had reportedly approached the duo hoping to emulate the success of a sexy 2009 campaign starring Victoria and David Beckham posing in their smalls together.
According to Forbes, Swift’s and Harris’s combined fortunes tally more than $ 171 million.
Twenty-five-year-old Swift is also an increasingly influential figure in fashion, appearing on the cover of the style issue of Vanity Fair.
Swift — who topped men’s magazine Maxim’s “Hot List” earlier this year — has carefully cultivated a wholesome image, in contrast to the flesh-baring proclivities of her pop contemporaries Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry.
When hackers released stolen private nude pictures of celebrities earlier this year, including Hollywood starlet Jennifer Lawrence, Swift took to Twitter to assure followers that any nudes that were released of her would be fakes.
PS any hackers saying they have ‘nudes’? Psssh you’d love that wouldn’t you! Have fun photoshopping cause you got NOTHING.
