Below are two of my favorite commercials. Of all the women in the Windows 7 was my idea commercials, these two are the hottest. Interestingly, the French girl (Charline) looks alot like the British girl (Crystal), but with a tan and speaking a different language.
I am now convinced that Crystal and Charline are the same actress, that both commercials were filmed in London and that the British version is a voice over. CPB Group is known for trying to generate Internet buzz for their clients. I suspect that was the idea behind using the same actress for the London and Paris versions of these commercials. Both were aired in their respective countries at Windows 7 launch, but now air in North America concurrently.For kicks, here is some positive reaction to the commercials (and the mysterious actress that plays Crystal and Charline):
-"I like Crystal. She's cheeky". "I hate Windows, but I love their commercials. The one featuring that french chick is great too".
-ButlerGeorge These Windows 7 ads would be much more interesting if Charline (French) & Crystal (British) were in the same commercial. Pillowfighting.
-Altavistagoogle http://twitpic.com/1cjjet - Someone in the US Senate has a fixation with Charline (aka Crystal), from the Windows 7 was my idea, I'm a PC ad.

Negative reaction:
-YouLoveSol: I can only take so much of the overly-caffienated French girl in the overly-played Microsoft Windows 7 commercial. #pleasestop .
-ritarez: I don't understand the Microsoft commercials in FRENCH: "I'm a PC andWindows 7 was MY idea." Does French automatically make it better?

-Phillyberg: why am i not surprised that in the most recent Windows 7 commercial - the French are taking credit for everything?

They are not the same person ... They look similar but Crystal has chipped left upper central incisor, Charline has a small birth on her upper lip and some kind of scar on her nose ...
I don't think Crystal's upper left incisor is chipped. If anything, it may be slightly crooked.
Unfortunaltly, the angles are different on these screen captures:
http://twitpic.com/1fd32i/full . Teeth look the same to me.
The birthmark and "scar" could have been added/masked with makeup.
What i NEED to know is, who is the actress in the "flashback" scene in the British commercial.
She is just gorgeous!
I'm not the only person that found the French girl to be more attractive than her "hotter" reenactment version, right?
Isn't the "re-enactment" girl the same for both??? I'm sure she is. Crystal & Charline are similar but not the same girl - you'd have thought Microsoft might have gone for a bit variety?
Pino, i agree.
Laura, the two flashback girls are different. Crystal's flashback girl is dynamite! Trying to figure out who she is. Some people online are saying that it is Amanda Peete. Similar in looks, but i don't think it's her.
hello there is Charline is the same person as Michelle lovelysoul at Facebook? there are two different face so one of them is a poser, Charline identity was using by someone else?
In the response of it saying that both ads were filmed in London: Actually, the French one was filmed in Paris. The location is Le Pure Café, 14 rue Jean Macé
