Harry Potter fans are going to be really excited to see that Dobby the house elf is the new face of LV.
So I didn't even notice the louis vuitton bag…was that the point?
FAB!!
SO BORING. You take something as weird as Keith Richards and this is the best the "fabulous and wonderful" annie leibovitz can come up with??? give me a break. If it were meant to be funny or weird or interesting or even marketable, this failed miserably. I could have taken this with my handheld. all she has is a name. and all keith has is a few months to live. lol
This is an exceptionally talented man, from a band that is musically archived in history as being phenomenal. I don’t understand how some people can criticize (whether you like their music or not) a person simply because “they’re old”. News flash, old age is a luxury and we should be honored to reach it one day. Being cynical of “old people” perpetuates the superficial Hollywood industry that skews our society’s image of beauty, not to mention ends promising celebrities careers much too soon. Moreover, those wrinkles are a novel he wears on his face telling the story of a long rock-n-roll life that none of us can begin to imagine.
I love you Keith!
he looks like what he is, a cool old rocker
love it
ROCK!!!
I have always loved Keith Richards! If ANYBODY could get me to buy Louis Vuitton, it would be him!!!
AAAH its sooo tough i love it
everyone who hates it is ridick
its too awesome
I LOVE LOUIS VUITTON
he's in the exact center of the frame…strumming a guitar. wearing probably what he always wears… for as much character as he and his wise old age has, hardly any comes through. what a laughing disappointment annie… U SUCK
Basically they did an ad to show what pete doherty will look like in 20 years…
I'm dissapointed in Louis Vuitton…
Louis Vuitton….The luggage rock stars use when they are planning to OD at the hotel.
blaah he looks like a corpse. sick.
HOT!
HOT!
HOT!
HOT!
HOT!
HOT!
HOT!
Keith Richards looks like a corpse. His skin is about as leathery as that crusty jacket he is wearing in the picture.
Who The Fuck cares? Im tired of LV and i really dont like him. Just another waste of ad space in a great issue of VOGUE!
I forgot to say that I like the whole consept of it.. it shows a differant side to thhe industry, and I like that it's better than stick thin, ugly models. Although, I don't think he was the right person.. he kind of gives off a wierd vibe. Just doesn't even look like an ad…
uh, i could have taken that picture. and i suck.
Who knew that zombies really do exist and they have a need for Louis Vuitton
Honestly, I was so distracted by the fact that he looks like an uncovered, ancient Mummy, that I totally did NOT even realize it was a campaign shot for Louis Vuitton. To me, he looks more like that "Nicorette" Troll from those stupid quitting smoking commercials. Nice try there, Keith Richards; Next time, stick to your "Captain Teague" look as played in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End!
Yeah, way to improve the brand image.
Love Keef! Excellent choice for LV. Two classics for sure.
um… ew ?!
wtf
Kudos to LV… Richards rocks…
You could never ever ever ever ever ever be as cool as Keith or the
Rolling Stones. Have a little respect cause when you get that old you'll be dead. Douche! And all you silly little kids making fun, Boy you missed one great generation.
I am really shocked he is still alive. He looks AWFUL.
Im a louis vuitton addict and he is so fantastic…i actually could NOT be more excited to see that.
Annie is a genius, but Keiths face looks baggy. Pun intended.
fabulous!!
icki icki yucky euwww!
Is this shit suppose to make people want to buy clothes?
he looks like a corpse
this looks almost exactly like the shot she did of ryan adams http://z.about.com/d/arthistory/1/7/X/F/leibovitz_dia06_03.jpg
He looks like an old, worn out suitcase himself…!
He looks like the living dead. New heroin sheek look for LV?
he looks kinda dead…macht mir irgendwie angst
its hard to critique a photograph when you draw shit all over it. next time when asking others opinions about a picture dont be doodling over it. all i see when i look at this is keith richards and a goody hat!!!
I think it is brilliant, anything Annie Leibovitz shoots is photographic gold!!!!!
His face matches the suitcase (color and texture) …. that must be what he's modelling for.
maybe a louis vuitton coffin would be nice.
I SAW THIS PICTURE FIRST IN CLARIN.COM A NEWSPAPER FOR ARGENTINA.LOL!
it's a great idea, and it brings the status back to a status item. louis vuitton bags have turned into bullshit suburban idiot wear that any 16 year old girl who can get her hands on 500 dollars can have in some form. it is no longer as special as it once was. this is a great way to change the way people think about the brand and makes it more special.
It makes me wonder, "which is the leather hand bag? the thing on the bed or that leathery thing holding the guitar?"
only annie could make a corpse look good!!!!!!
He looks like Death
His appearance has not changed in 15-20 years. Love him then love him now and I love the picture too !!
fucking' love it! It totally rox;)
He looks like he is about 150 years old…where's the botox when you need it!!!!!!!!!
Eeeek! He looks scary.
marc jacobs is tottally fucking up LV
THANKS, Perez bloggers. I'm having a bad day today and some of these comments had me laughing outloud and smiling!!!!!!!!!!
thanx
totally hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why him!? he is to old and dont even match the image of lv that old guy!
Love it! It really doesn't promote the luggage though. You zoom in on the rock god and the luggage is almost an after thought. It's almost like i spy (where's the vuitton, where's the vuitton THERE IT IS!)
whats with that pouty pose? is that a look of deep thought? they should've shown his dope rig in the photo…
Looks like years of partying caught up with that one… It should help his "just say no kids" campaign.
lol I love Marc Jacobs, this ad is GREAT!!!!!!!!! and Keith looks COOL. This looks MUCH BETTER than a skinny model, photoshopped to death. Kudo to Louis Vuitton for this.
where'd they get the corpse from? i never knew there was such a store as rent-a-body…
love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and for those who mentioned.. Yes I think he would have LV luggabe he has a very hot former supermodel wife who would know and buy this for him or herself. 2) he would not give a shit if it was sampsonight or Louie and being a good brit would not think twice about putting is tea cip or ashtray on that luggage. 3) I think he is sober know but all good brits still drink tea I bet even Doperty does
He looks like an aged version of Amy Winehouse.. how scary is an ad like that?
Love LV but does Richards dress like that to rehearse in his hotel room? lol Maybe they should have used the larger luggage and had a side shot of the stage with him rehearsing…..woulda worked better.
Talk about waking the dead…………..
TO PARTY!!
it looks so alive…
(looks like a ZOMBIE to me!!) or maybe he escaped from michael jacksons thriller
I LOVE THE IDEAAAAAAAAAAAAA! KEITH IS COOL. HE'S LIKE A ROLLING STONE.
LOVE IT. AMAZING!!!
LOVE IT!
Assuming they're going for the whole 'rocker' thing, at least they hired an actual ROCKER.
And he doesn't look any more dead than those models whose ribs are popping out of their skin. Yikes.
He's a beast, but I love the Gretsch guitar. Reminds me of George Harrison's.
disgusting!
HE IS STILL ALIVE!?
But that is kinda weird having HIM of all people sponser Louis Vuitton…=/
I hope I look that good when I've been dead six months
this is genius. who else could pull that off? it is edgy and cool. well done.
DEEAATTHH!!
Yeah he is so fucking ugly, I guess creepy old ugly people need their pic taken too!! Im sure he broke her camera lens when she snapped the pic.
Oh I just vomited in my mouth
CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!
They should put him back in his coffin.
He looks like a leathery handbag
Wow, that's pretty smoking!!! Hot stuff, great work as usual Annie!
Annie Leibovitz is STILL ALIVE? I THOUGHT THAT BITCH DIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can he get any wrinklier???
HE IS FUCKING BRILLIANT !!!
is he alive??
Annie Leboitz did an amazing job!
So gross.
Love it! Too bad Keith's face looks just like the bag hes endorsing…
Annie is great, but Keith looks like he died 5 years ago and forgot to lay down.
WOW, hes an old fart now..
SCARY!!! DOES NOT MAKE ME WANT TO BUY LOUIS VUITTON
this looks like a scene out of the Shining
this ad is beautiful.
I love that everything is going back to old skool rock.
not every fashion ad now has to have some stupid model, or untalented actress on it. There bringing back rock!!
yahh
right on.
I'd bang him.
I freakin love Annie Leibovitz. The picture is great, it's just Keith Richard's face that sucks. He looks terrible!!!!!!!!
oh my god he is so old lol
