Emma Stone Is Louis Vuitton's Newest Ambassador
Emma Stone is on a roll right now with her career. She’s coming off a wave of praise and publicity from her Oscar-winning performance in La La Land, a role that was followed up this year by another well-reviewed performance in Battle of the Sexes, in which she plays tennis legend Billie Jean King. Now, she has even more news for us: Stone is officially the new face of Louis Vuitton.
According to Page Six, the French brand had been pursuing the actress for nearly a year. But apparently biding her time paid off for Stone: according to a source in Page Six, she’s in for a two-year deal that will pay out between $6 and $10 million (which, um, how do we get that gig?).
Stone’s in good company, too: she joins Alicia Vikander and Selena Gomez as official ambassadors to the brand.
The brand’s creative director, Nicolas Ghesquière, confirmed the deal in an Instagram Saturday night. Posting a picture of himself and Stone,
he wrote, “I am truly happy #emmastone is joining #louisvuitton today as a new ambassador ?”
The Louis Vuitton Instagram account also confirmed the news with a picture of Ghesquière and Stone, who will appear in print and television advertisements and wear the brand on red carpets as part of her ambassadorship. They wrote, “#LouisVuitton is delighted to announce Emma Stone as the latest ambassador for the Maison. A muse and friend of Louis Vuitton Women’s Artistic Director @NicolasGhesquiere, Emma prepares to walk the red carpet for her latest movie #BattleoftheSexes in a #LVSS18 gown.”
Her first event as a face of the brand? She wore that gorgeous Louis Vuitton dress in the pics above on Saturday night to the 2017 BFI London Film Festival—and looked gorgeous:
