L’Oreal Responds To Accusations of Digitally Bleaching Beyonce’s Skin in New Ad

Posted by Juan

Mums the word from the Beyonce camp. Don’t bite the hand that feeds your great grand kids.

L’Oreal

So it looks like the folks at L’Oreal read Highbrid Nation. The world’s largest cosmetics maker has responded to my and others accusations across the blogoshpere that their new ad in September’s issue of Elle magazine in fact features an artificially melanin deprived Beyonce. In a statement released Thursday through Beyonce’s “people”, L’Oreal denies any digital enhancement:

“We highly value our relationship with Ms. Knowles. It is categorically untrue that L’Oréal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin tone in the campaign for Feria hair color.”

So what does Beyonce’s camp think? They think about money and rightfully they should. They have denied further comment beyond L’Oreal’s statement. LOL! That’s a woman whose been marketing trained. Beyonce and Jay-Z the music industry’s corporate endorsement Bonnie and Clyde.

I think the hair color (even her eyebrows are blonde) make it look worse than what it is.

Uhm … yup…she looks like a white woman.

My thing is…how can I judge how that color will look on real hair as opposed to silky straight yaki #30?
