The American cosmetic company signed a contract with Dempsey who will be the spokesperson for one of the men’s fragrances, which will be launched in November. According to the Women’s Wear Daily website, Dempsey, 42, will make $5 million during this three-year contract.
This announcement did not surprise many people since Dempsey’s wife, Jillian, has been the creative director at Avon since 2006.
The chairperson and CEO at Avon, Andrea Jung, expressed, "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."
