Chanel: Gabrielle (2017 Video) User Reviews

No Keira Knightley, And Better Than ALL Calvin Klein Ads.

For four years almost, Kristen Stewart has been a rather effective and sizzling spokes-model for quite a few Chanel products- from clothes to handbags-to even eye-makeup. When I heard she would model a new fragrance by Chanel, I thought "Finally, No More Keira Knightly!" First, to get it out of the way, I will say what I DON'T like about this Chanel ad: Beyonce. If it had been up to me, I would not use a single song from that overrated lip-syncing, pole dancer! I more prefer the 2005 hit "Breakaway" by Kelly Clarkson. I DO like about this ad, that is not K-Stew, in a bikini, smooching with some dude like most Calvin Klein TV ads.(Yes.Looking at you Christy Turlington.) It showed that Kristen Stewart does have EMOTIONS and also showed that no matter what she does, the more imaginative project the better for her. And it also demonstrates that whenever K-Stew does any project that is sex/nudity implied, the girl KNOWS how to keep it classy.GO K-STEW!

Go for it if you really adore K-Stew

Here we have "Chanel: Gabrielle", a one-minute commercial that has earned its spot here on imdb through the presence of actress Kristen Stewart, one of the biggest superstars of her generation. Director is Ringan Ledwidge, who has been working in film for over a decade at least, but yeah it is all about the actress. The idea here is that she plays the character of Coco Chanel before she becomes a successful entrepreneur and leading perfume manufacturer. But honestly, with this running time it is impossible to truly gap the bridge in a way where you would say immediately yes this is Gabrielle Chanel. Still, it is somewhat okay to watch thanks to the visual effects and the dress and for me personally as a straight male for Kristen Stewart who looks pretty adorable in here. Very desirable even to be honest. The song is fine too and fits the headstrong movement by the main character. Voice sounds a bit like Beyoncé's. That's all that needs to be said really. I think that it would not be the worst decision to check this one out if you really love Kristen Stewart. Otherwise skip it simply, even if at one minute you really cannot do too much wrong to be honest. Nonetheless, all in all, I give it a thumbs-down. The artistic impact just isn't considerable enough for me here to give it a positive recommendation, but this is also where the running time that I used as an excuse earlier really does backfire because the challenge of getting something memorable into such a short period of time is simply way too huge. Watch something else instead.
