Megan Fox lands a seven figure deal with Armani!
Confirming that endorsement deals still have cachet in a recession, “Transformers” star Megan Fox is pulling down a seven-figure payday to model Armani underwear and jeans.
The 23-year-old will be the new face of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans in 2010, the Milan-based fashion house announced Wednesday.
The actress’ publicity team, managers and agents approached Armani several times over the years to build the relationship. She wore Armani outfits at red carpet events and met designer Giorgio Armani at an Armani Prive fashion show in Paris this year.
With Victoria Beckham’s contract expiring and “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” ballooning past $800 million in worldwide box office, a deal finally clicked. Fox also plays a possessed cheerleader in “Jennifer’s Body,” which launched in theaters last month.
