Ding Dong! Avon Calling!

Hugh Jackman is set to star in a new 20th Century Fox production titled Avon Man.  The main plot has Jackman’s character, a used car salesman, being laid off from his job.  In an effort to survive, he takes a job as a door-to-door salesperson peddling Avon products.

I don’t think Avon does the whole cold call thing anymore, but it’s a slow news day so let’s just fantasize for a minute.  Because if Hugh Jackman came strolling up my walk, I’d be buying every bottle of Skin So Soft that he had in his case.  Does Avon sell sex toys?  Because I’d buy some of those too.  After an extensive demonstration period, obviously.

  • i hope this role will require him to shave his face. i so hate stubble on that oh so fine face of his. why Jack? maybe he has to tone down the handsome; maybe he can’t go out full-powered handsome because he melts metals and makes water boil. Yeah, that’s gotta be it. It’s a mighty power, Jack, use it wisely.

  • lmao wendie, that would be pretty sweet. why didnt they try that years ago as a markeeting stratagy? it would have worked.

    on a side note, am i the only person who always thinks of edward scissorhands every time i hear about avon or mary kay?

  • Just fyi, don’t buy a buttplug from the guy. Based on his sexual preference, it’s probably been used.
