Michael Phelps: Olympian Turned Model For Louis Vuitton Campaign

 The Olympic swimmer is stepping out of the pool and in front of the camera for his brand new ad — and it’s certainly not for Wheaties!

Not only is Michael Phelps the most decorated Olympian of all time but he can now add model to his resume! The gold medalist is the face of Louis Vuitton’s latest campaign and in one of the shots he poses in something quite familiar — a black speedo! Michael and his incredible abs are submerged in a bathtub of water, with his Louis Vuitton duffle on the floor beside him. How appropriate!
The other photo in the campaign goes in a different direction and has the swimmer out of his speedo and into a polished suit. Phelps looks so suave with his slicked back hair, while he sips tea with an older woman.
Famed photog Annie Leibovitz can be credited with photographing the 27-year-old for the ad and it looks great! Now that he’s done competing, could more modeling be in his future?
