Watch Scorsese's Sexy New Bleu de Chanel Film

Remember the news that the legendary Martin Scorsese would be directing a short film for Chanel's newest scent for men, Bleu de Chanel Eau de Toilette ($59-$79)?

Remember the news that the legendary Martin Scorsese would be directing a short film for Chanel's newest scent for men, Bleu de Chanel Eau de Toilette ($59-$79)? Well, here's the commercial below — in all its blue-hued glory. French dreamboat Gaspard Ulliel stars in the film, portraying Hector, an actor who refuses to fit the mold of the celebrity lifestyle. Enhanced with the Rolling Stones' "She Said Yeah" playing in the background, the flick cuts to memories of Hector's relationships past. What do you think of Scorsese's foray into the fragrance world?

Jay-Z Likes a Chica Cherry Cola

Jay-Z stopped by the premiere of Hannibal Rising the other night and got some face time in with Gong Li and director Peter Webber.

Jay-Z stopped by the premiere of Hannibal Rising the other night and got some face time in with Gong Li and director Peter Webber. Watching Ray Liotta getting his brains fed to him in the last installment of the Silence of the Lambs series left a bad taste in my mouth, so to speak. Bleck! We'll hope that the new one didn't ruin Jay-Z's appetite as well, or at least his thirst for carbonated, sugary sweet drinks. The Jayzer just signed a 3 million dollar deal to re-launch Cherry Coke. The campaign launches next Wednesday and we can't wait to see what Hova turns out.
