HOLLYWOOD - Screen beauty Catherine Zeta-Jones will no longer be the face of phone giant T-Mobile as of next year, as the company has no plans to renew her contract.
The Ocean's Twelve star has appeared in advertising campaigns for the firm since signing a reportedly multi-million-dollar contract in 2003, also taking the role as their glamorous spokesperson.
But T-Mobile claims to want a more down-to-earth, "man on the street" persona to tout their upcoming range of Internet phone products.
T-Mobile spokesman Peter Dobrow says, "When Catherine Zeta-Jones agreed to be our spokesperson four years ago, we could never have imagined the cache appeal she would have brought to T-Mobile.
"Her style, credibility and integrity have been a tremendous benefit for our company and our brand.
"We could not have asked for a better partner in launching T-Mobile than Catherine Zeta-Jones."
