La-Tea GaGa (sorry)
Tue, 20/07/2010 - 11:58 by HM writer

Surely THIS is not the sort of image old English firm Twinings, dating 300 years and recently featuring the face of Stephen Fry, wants to be associated with? Well, according to reports, the tea firm are keen to sign her as their brand ambassador, because a tea cup used to be that thing she did once...

A possibly made-up source said:

"Her management have received a load of offers from major tea companies but Twinings are the front-runners.

"They want to launch a new tea with her face on it and discussions are taking place at the top level. Names like The Taste Of GaGa are being batted about. The idea is to have tasting sessions in which she would participate.

"The tasters are coming up with a tea with an oriental flavour. They want to market tea to a new, younger generation - particularly in America, and GaGa is making drinking tea cool again."

Is The Taste Of GaGa really the best they can come up with? And would GaGa really agree to sell out seeing as that's the sort of thing she's opposed to (apart from the Nemiroff vodka product placement in her Bad Romance video and the shameless Virgin mobile phones in the Telephone one)?

Still, surely nothing can be as bad as this....

  • The moment this insufferable bore gets her mitts on anything tea-related, is the moment I send the PG Tips monkeys round to whack off into her stupid retarded face.

  • Sounds quite plausible to me. Why use someone like Stephen Fry who appeals to people who already drink a shit load of tea.

    Makes perfect sense to tap into a younger market with GaGa.

    The Mad Hatter was clearly unavailable.

    Thank your designated deity for that. Shit, I thought I was going have to give up. Tea is soooooo 1650s.
