Karl Lagerfeld's first commercial for Volkswagen has been released and it's pretty fab.

We're not exactly sure what he's saying, but if we had to guess it's something witty.

Unkle Karl The Car Salesman

Ha!

Volkswagen somehow talked Karl Lagerfeld into appearing in a commercial.

Karl flew to Berlin last week to film the 30 second ads he photographed the cars while playing himself. And get this, they're funny!

Director Johan Renck said "It's a mix between coolness and iconic style, like Karl himself."

Unkle K's VW commercials debut in Germany next week.

Oprah Gave Away New Cars Too!

oprah gives away beetles on her ultimate favorite things show

Absolutely everybody went nuts for Oprah's final Ultimate Favorite Things show! We weren't there and even we went wild over it!

During the show's finale, Oprah had Santa drive her onto the set in a red Volkswagen Beetle. Here's what she said to the audience:

"It's not what you think. I wanted to give everyone one of these, but VW said 'Sorry, Oprah. We can't give you this beetle.'"

But then she said….

[VW agreed to give everyone a] "brand new, totally redesigned 2012 Beetle. THE BEETLES ARE COMING!!!"

The extremely lucky audience members at the show will all receive a VW 2012 Beetle when they are unveiled in May 2011.

Here's what Oprah had to say about the new Beetle:

"It's so damn sexy. Even the men are going to want to drive this car."

Hell yes they will, Oprah! You should also give away Beetles to everyone out there who WRITES about your show. LOLs.

Other fab prizes given during the show include iPads, Coach Purses, Garrett's Popcorn, jewelery boxes with diamond earrings, and more!

Here's more from Oprah on her final Favorite Things Show:

"This is the last one I will ever do. And I know this is a Saturday Night Live Parody here."

Totally could be an SNL parody! All you need to do is start giving away neighborhoods and private islands and neighborhoods on private islands!

What do U think of these prizes? Did any of U out there win the VW 2012 Beetle?

Jade Goody Left Bulk Of Her Fortune To Her Kids!!

Filed under: AnglophiliaJade GoodyInspirationSad Sad

This is extremely touching.

Although British TV personality Jade Goody tragically lost her battle with cervical cancer last year, the details of her will have finally been revealed.

It seems the Big Brother star never lost focus on what was truly important, and has left almost $6 million to her two children, Bobby and Freddy!!

Her will reportedly states: "The wishes of my children should be regarded as paramount."

The boys currently are under the custody of their biological father, Jeff Brazier.

A friend says:

"The bottom line of all this is that she'll have looked after her two young sons and no one has to worry about their financial security or education. They're very well provided for, and Jade will be smiling down from Heaven. It really was all she cared about in her final weeks - that her boys would have a proper schooling and not have to face the struggles she did growing up in a poor family in Bermondsey."

Meanwhile, her widower, Jack Tweed, who is awaiting trial after allegedly raping a 19 year old, received nothing but her six year old Volkswagen, while her mother, Jackiey Budden, received $20,000!!

Ouch!!

We guess she had enough foresight to know better than to leave anything substantial to her hubby!!

We hope Jade is at peace knowing her children are provided for.
