Dita Von Teese demonstrates how a lady should drink water.
To celebrate the launch of Perrier’s ‘Paparazzi’ limited edition water, Dita Von Teese has moved into a massive online mansion dubbed the “Chateau Perrier“. Paparazzi Perrier is just like regular Perrier, except that it has pictures of Dita Von Teese on it, subliminally creating the effect of more bubbles in the water, at least this is what our internal research tells us. We’ll have to ask Dita in person when we party with her next week at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans. Continue Reading »
