Bang-Bang:France is divided over Nicolas Sarkozy’s new girlfriend Carla Bruni after she appears in a sexy new car commercial

Expected on television in France at the end of this month, the advertisement for the new Lancia Musa car is also an eye-catching introduction to France’s first lady in waiting.
A highly paid model and folk singer, Carla Bruni, the temptress in the Lancia advertisement, makes an unlikely presidential muse. But instead of embracing the novelty of a glamorous working girl as “première dame”, France seems divided over Nicolas Sarkozy’s decision to marry her just three months after reluctantly getting divorced from Cécilia, his second wife, who left him for another man. Matthew Campbell, Paris-from The Sunday Times
