Paris Hilton is featured in a series of print and TV ads for the sparkling wine Rich Prosecco, which has been dubbed a "Champagne in a Can." The print ad, featuring Hilton in nothing but gold paint, has generated the most press coverage, but the campaign includes at least two TV spots as well.
-
Fast Facts
- Product name: Rich Prosecco
- Company founder: Günther Aloys
- Ad campaign featuring Paris Hilton debuted late 2007
- Hilton had been convicted of DUI earlier in the year
- Italian sparkling wine in a can
- Prosecco is the name of a white grape used to make wine of the same name
- Rich Prosecco ad slogan: "Enjoy the unmatchable feeling. Sparkling, Fruity, Fresh, Ice Cold."
- Available in lower alcohol versions, "Rich Passion" (passion fruit) and "Rich Royal" (strawberry and cassis fruit cocktail)
- Francis Ford Coppola marketed another "Champagne in a can" in 2004
-
Why Paris?
According to Rich Prosecco founder Günther Aloys, "Nobody else currently embodies carefree lust for life as convincingly and glamorously as Paris Hilton. That's why she's matches Rich Prosecco so well." Another possible explanation for the use of Hilton's image may be a desire to reach a younger audience than the typical sparkling wine consumer—the TV spots feature stills of Hilton scantily clad, set to electronic dance music. -
