Chanel decided not to renew their contract with famous and troubled singer, Lilly Allen but instead to chose French star, Vanessa Paradis. Ms Paradis will now be the new face for Chanel’s handbags. As a matter of fact, Paradis is already the face of Chanel’s perfumes. Lily Allen is a British singer who rose to fame with her different type of music consisting of pure honestly and a mixture of reggae with pop.

Though her music was much appreciated throughout the world, Allen was constantly brought down by the media. Allen last year announced that she will be quitting the music scene after being disappointed with the number of pirated downloads of her songs. She is also launching her new line of clothes and stores. She formerly was the face of Chanel’s Cocoon bag last year.

Subsequently it was rumored that Chanel’s designer, Karl Lagerfeld decided to let go of Lily Allen after she got drunk at his party and misbehaved. This certainly wouldn’t gel with Chanel’s clean image.
