The combined might…
The combined might of the US Army, the CIA and various Afghan militia have spent the past three years trying to winkle out Osama Bin Laden from his Afghan hideaway. But all they needed to do was ask the creative team at Scholz & Friends Antwerp, who appear to have given him a modelling contract. This ad has been appearing in the Belgian press, promoting ‘home delivery hairstyling’ company Beauty Services (although the Diary happens to know that OBL frequents Alex & Jimmy’s salon in Muswell Hill). Readers of the Washington Post should look out for the follow-up campaign in March. The ad will feature Ulrike Meinhof before and after Botox treatment, and is sure to be a scream.
