Madonna rumoured to be next H&M model

Madonna could be the latest of a string of celebrities to pose as a model for Swedish low-cost fashion retailer Hennes and Mauritz (H&M), Swedish newspaper Expressen reported today saying said the singer was in negotiations with the company.

“She’s a superstar, a style icon – and controversial. Now Madonna could be H&M’s next clothing model,” the paper says.

H&M would neither confirm nor deny the report. “Our policy is to never comment on such reports,” company spokewoman Kristina Stenvinkel told AFP.

The retailer announced earlier this month that Dutch designer duo Viktor + Rolf would create a special collection for H&M this autumn, to be launched in November.

But it has yet to announce who will don the creations in the accompanying advertising campaign. Previous H and M models have included superstars Naomi Campbell,
Cindy Crawford, Anna Nicole Smith.

Expressen said Madonna had a long history of collaborating with Swedes, including music producers, songwriters, music video directors and even her yoga instruct
