My vote is for Cher, I love her! I remember there was a post about this *a long time ago* and I said I would love Cher to be the next icon.

Cher would be interesting, esp. if her crazy colour love came through.
Was she in any movies in the 60s/70s

I know ppl were talking abt Dolly in the VIVA Glam VI spokesperson thread before it was announced.

i'm just glad those hints rule out madonna

Yeah, I'm all for Cher- I'm surprised they haven't done anything with her yet.

That comment makes me sad. Without those trendsetting 'old bags', you wouldn't have the make-up, the fashion and the style influences you have now.

If you're interested in fashion and make-up, it's important to look to the past to see what's in the future and give credit to those who trail-blazed before you.

I agree with Lara - they are the ones who started all the trends and influenced style throughout the years

Old bags? Some people apparently don't "get" what MAC is trying to convey with their Icon idea. It ain't Madonna or Paris Hilton. Maybe if they're around 10 years from now, I could understand Madonna possibly, but she sort of flunks the test for having any class.


Cher would fit with the plastic surgery comment....and yes, she is an Icon. From the 60's with the mod look, the 70's, and clear through to now. Now THAT is what I've believed MAC is after with the Icon collections and promotion.

I've been waiting for them to hit on what I remember from the early 70's, late 60's, which was a matte sea green eyeshadow shade that everyone wore. There was that and a matte sort of sky blue that were both very much staples! Of course, I only admired the older girls wearing it because they're much older bags than I.
When I was 14, I was hooked on a heavily frosted pink by Revlon, who had an amazing array of huge-pan single shadows in their display!

Dolly would be SUCH a great idea because just think of all the angles there, too! You've got the country and you've got Vegas!!!

I don't follow trends and I never look to someone else to give me fashion tips. I do my own thing and always will. Plus, I never really thought of any of these women as fashionable. Sorry. Maybe I'm the only one but that's how it is.

Just curious then....why would you care WHO they pick for anything? Just stay on the MAC bandwagon and use it in your own unique way as you apparently do.

The day Britney Spears or Paris Hilton becomes MAC's next idol, is the day I probably stop buying MAC.

Well, perhaps just maybe.

I've been loving Cher for years now and I would be tickled pink to see her as the next one.

I'm not sure Cher will be the next one but the bug has been planted in her ear from what I've heard. She certainly would be interesting (and her collection would be incomplete without glitterliners!)

I think Goldie would be great too!

Cher would be GREAT but it's not her.

By the way, I'm going on a little trip this weekend to Kansis City. My car is such a little Bomber I feel like it's One Million Years B.C. But it's cute so it makes me feel like one of the Three Muskateers. We're bringing my Mother, Jugs of water and plan to Speed. Hope your weekend is good!
