Angelina Jolie dropped from St.John


 Angelina Jolie is replaced by a fashion model Karen Elson.After a three-year campaign as the face of luxury knitwear giant St. John, the company has announced that they're replacing the actress because Jolie's fame has "overshadowed the brand."

St. John’s CEO Glenn McMahon claims the decision to drop Jolie was made because the company believes the star “overshadowed the brand,” Women’s Wear Daily reports.

“We wanted to make a clean break from actresses and steer away from blondes and cleanse the palette,” McMahon said.

However, Jolie's replacement isn't just any model. It's British supermodel Karen Elson, whose claims to fame include her flame-red hair and allowing fashion photographer Steven Meisel to convince her to shave off her eyebrows for a photo shoot.
