CK One’s New Ad Embraces Sapphic Love – #Ckmeforme

Shot by Mario Sorrenti, Calvin Klein’s new advert for CK One starts predictably enough with Klein’s iconic undie-roots, however plays into the infamous Instagram generation’s of selfies. With a dedicated tumblr page and me-centric hashtag – #Ckmeforme, the voyeuristic ad campaign blurs all the lines between public and private, with straight and gay.

Featuring Taeyang, Dev Hynes, Samantha Urbani, Say Lou Lou, Kelela, Soko (famed for her appearance in the ‘First Kiss’ viral advert) and more, this advert would once be considered shocking, or even ‘risqué’ and ‘inappropriate’ by some ageing marketing executive, but for the summer of 2014, it simply feels laid-back, un-retouched, raw and intimate.

Calvin Klein’s has often planned on gender norms, and embraced Sapphic Love. Jenny Shimizu once went topless and androgynous for one of CK’s early campaigns.

‘She’ the new Sapphic Song from Keyshia Cole

So the tabloids have made it pretty clear that Keyshia Cole is over her future ex-husband – Daniel “Boobie” Gibson, but what has them in a spin is Ms Cole’s new single ‘She’, which hints that she maybe over men too?

Yesterday, the R&B singer premiered her brand new song online, and according to her lyrics, Keyshia Cole is ‘down to try something different’ with her new album, and that might include a little ‘girl-on-girl’ action.

Keyshia recounts in ‘She’ about eying another woman and dreaming up some sexual fantasies.

Lips and legs, soft skin so feminine/Curves like me, covered in my cherry scent. The boys love some you, but I ain’t mad because you look good on me too.”

The sapphic song is now already making headlines before its release, as some of the lady-loving lyrics were revealed just as news broke that Cole is planning to file for divorce from ex-NBA player Gibson.

‘She’ is produced by DJ Mustard, and features an EDM-meets-R&B beat. Lyrics aside, ‘She’ she is nice tune. Great beat, and hot vocals by Keyshia. ‘She’ has been confirmed as the new official single from Ms. Cole’s forthcoming studio album ‘Point of No Return’, due in stores soon.

The full “Point of No Return” album will be out later this summer and feature collaborations with R. Kelly, 2 Chainz, Future, Birdman, Wale, Mike WiLL Made It, RedOne and Juicy J. Cole will also be kicking off the nationwide “Point of No Return” tour on July 12 in Rochester, NY.
