Oh, this is just too good...
New York Magazine is reporting that Jersey Shore star Mike Sorrentino, aka "The Situation," is supposedly going to be the face of a new line of tuxedos named after him, thanks to a company called Flow Formal. And, naturally, he'll be earning a six-figure sum for this.
The company is planning to launch the line in February 2012. "This is great for us and great for the industry," Brian Weintraub, CEO of Flow Formal, has said. "[Tuxedos have] become an old man thing."
Look, I can understand a tuxedo company trying to target a younger customer, but here's my question: why The Situation? There are plenty of charming, handsome young men in Hollywood today, so why choose a guy best known for wearing Ed Hardy muscle tees, being a womanizer, binge drinking, and flashing his abs to anyone who will look as the face of a tuxedo line? Maybe it's just me, but I think it sends some mixed messages about the way you're supposed to behave when donning a tuxedo—which, by the way, is like a gentleman...
BG brides, what do you think? Would your groom wear a tuxedo from The Situation's new line on his wedding day? Or perhaps the real question is: would you let him?
