Jawbone Ad Highlights ‘Beauty’ of Transgender Plastic Surgery

The freakish looking transgenger queen Amanda Lepore — who had her first cosmetic surgery at age 15, decided to have a sex change in high school, led a failed suburban housewife life and then hit New York for fame and fortune — appeared in a Jawbone ad in this week’s New Yorker.

Having already fronted M.A.C., Armani, MTV, and Swatch campaigns, Lepore appears in one half of a spread. The other half features what appears to be a plastic surgeon with a somewhat dumbfounded look on his face, possibly in reaction to the overly “worked-on” Lepore.

One always aims to be a bit eye-catching in advertising. This ad certainly accomplishes that.
