Ron Artest has tried many things.
Professional basketball player.
Rapper.
Producer.
But Ron Artest, supermodel?
That is the newest role for the Indiana Pacer, who has been suspended for the rest of the season in the wake of a Nov. 19 brawl between Pacers players and Detroit fans, is being featured in an advertising campaign for "The Roc" brand of lifestyle companies.
Other well-known faces in the Spring 2005 campaign Roc for Life include real supermodels Naomi Campbell and Karolina Kurkova, actor Kevin Bacon and rapper Cam'Ron, among others. The print ads debut in the March issues of many fashion-oriented magazines.
Artest's involvement came through his friendship with Damon Dash, CEO of "The Roc," a conglomeration of companies from the urban clothing line Rocawear to movie production company Dash Films.
"Ron and I have known each other for some time," Dash said in a statement. "Just as we were getting ready to shoot the campaign, I heard about his situation and contacted him about the opportunity immediately."
In one photo, Artest wears a suit from the Damon Dash Collection.
Pacer Stephen Jackson had already seen the photo of Artest, and was impressed.
"That's a real nice picture," Jackson said. "He can do it."
페션 모델 까지~~~
같이 사진 찍는 모델들도 쟁쟁하네요.
첫댓글 헐....
아테스트 끼가 많네요. 농구선수가 농구만 하지말란법은 없지만... 그래도 농구코트에서의 모습이 가장 빛나보이더군요
헐 -_- 아테스트 이런말 쫌 머하지만 전화위복인가 ㅡ,.ㅡ
평소 친분이 있던 NOC사장이 전격발탁했다는..
아테스트... 시즌 아웃 되더니... 오... -_-;;; 더 나네요. ㅋㅋㅋ (속으로 이게 바로 기회다라고 생각하고 있을 듯.)
이러면서도 자기 관리 착실히 해서, 다음 시즌에 복귀한다면 .. 넌 91번 자격이 있다. =_=;; 가능할까 ..
아테스트가 아니라 아티스트네요...
