2) Patrick Dempsey: The Grey's Anatomy star already had an in with Avon, since his makeup mogul wife, Jillian Dempsey, has been the brand's global creative color director since 2006, but his role in super-saccharine Enchanted must have put him over the top to snag the men's fragrance gig. The fragrance will hit stores in November, 2008. Andrea Jung, chairman and CEO of Avon Products, Inc. told Fashion Week Daily : "We are thrilled to partner with Patrick Dempsey, an incredibly accomplished actor who has achieved such broad appeal because of his genuine authenticity, charisma and style."
