Industry drones filing into their offices this morning were greeted with not quite your run-of-the-mill THR cover, but rather the somewhat startling, full-color image above. It all comes courtesy of the Belvedere Vodka company, as envisioned by photographer Terry Richardson. And while it took us a good ten minutes to figure out the connection between a trades publication, smooth spirits, and a Mischa Barton-esque woman reapplying lipstick shortly after having made acquaintance with an unidentified man's crotch, it suddenly dawned on us: Now that the For Your Consideration season is over, the For Your Appreciation ads are right there to take its place.

Seriously?
I don't understand what any of this has to do with Mister Belvedere.
No, no, see, she's using the belt buckle as a MIRROR! For her LIPSTICK! Who HASN'T done that? And, are we sure that's a man-crotch? Ah, it works on so many levels.
"Unidentified man's crotch" my ass. It's another Vincent Gallo blow job.

Ahhhhh. A star is born.
I think it's an ad for the new movie Rainbow Party: The Musical!.
@Admore: Oh, well, if it's just about the mirror, then ok.
Seriously, could there be a more perfect ad for a Hollywood trade? ugh.
Would somebody tell me how Vincent Gallo earns a living?
I'm guessing the crotch belongs to Javier Bardem.
Should "luxury" make you want to take a long hot shower in Cipro and schedule a gamma globulin booster?
All Terry Richardson photos look like this. Even the ones of Viggo. Looks like somebody's earned his red wings!
Still - won't make that Vodka taste any better...
Miss D, you need to venture out and find a bottle o' "Zyr"; it puts B-dere to shame. As for Gallo, who suggested he makes a living?
Luxury Reborn? I mean, luxury would have a white powder to go with the mirrors? And shouldn't they be drinking Grey Goose?
@LittleMissPartlyCloudy: I've been getting into this [www.thedrinkshop.com] of late...
