Gorbachev journeys from Ex-President to Model

Mikhail Gorbachev,former Soviet leader, is the new spokesmodel,besides others like Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi, for Louis Vuitton, the French luxury bag maker.He is featured in this shot in a car sitting next to a Vuitton bag passing by the Berlin Wall. Looks kind of stiff to me and doesnt seem to fit into the role. But high profile buyers may just love that snooty look and buy up... who knows!
