Listen, anyone can be the spokesperson for a new fragrance. Any old pretty actress can be the face of a cosmetics line. But they want Johnny Depp to be the new peni… um, face of Trojan condoms. According to the Daily Mail:

Depp, 44, a big advocate of safe sex education, would be expected to appear in a series of offbeat TV commercials for the company’s new Magnum range. Trojan bosses believe “Rubber Johnny” would not only expand sales in the US but also help inspire an anti-AIDS campaign to send free condoms to third world countries. The Pirates Of The Caribbean star also holds huge sway with teen fans and one slogan the ad executives are playing with is: “Stand up with Johnny for safer sex.”

It works well, I think. A lot of guys buying them probably wish they were him, and a lot of girls buying them wish they were buying them FOR him.
