Carmen Electra recently signed on to appear in a national print and television campaign for NV, which is being touted as the world's first beauty-enhancing weight loss pill. The makers of NV, which made its debut at Sundance this year, claim the pill will support fat loss, suppress appetite, and increase the health of nails, hair, and skin. It seems to me they'd sell a lot more if they actually gave the pills to an unattractive woman and then showed the results instead of using someone like Carmen Electra whose beauty has been constructed through means not available to most women. Of course, then they'd actually have to prove the pills work, so I guess this is the better option.Carmen Electra new spokesmodel for weight loss and beauty pill

1. I agree with Adam. This is a puzzling marketing ploy.
