Beyonce’s latest L’Oreal ad is causing controvery amongst her fans because the obvious airbrushing!
L’Oreal who are being accused of doctoring the picture to ‘whitewash’ HER IMAGE FOR PROMOTIONAL USE.
However, L’Oreal are strenuously denying they had altered her skin tone despite outrage in US papers over the Elle magazine ad.
The New York Post labelled the ad “shocking” and accused the company of making the singer look like a “weird, nearly white version of herself”.
A spokesman for L’Oreal said: “Beyonce Knowles has been a spokesperson for the L’Oreal Paris brand since 2001. We highly value our relationship with Ms. Knowles.”
He continued: “It is categorically untrue that L’Oreal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin-tone in the campaign for Feria hair colour.”
