Recently, rumors had it that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan would soon be replaced by the Slumdog Millionaire chick, Freida Pinto as the new face of cosmetic firm L’Oreal Paris.
However, a denial has come from the officials of L’Oreal Paris, “We are shocked and surprised to read in some sections of the media/press about Ms. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan being replaced as the face of L’Oreal Paris,” said an official statement from the firm.
These rumors cropped when Ms Pinto was seen featuring in the L’Oreal Paris New Year 2011′s commercial ad.
“L’Oreal Paris strongly reiterates that this is absolutely untrue and that Ms. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan continues to be our valued spokesperson, as she has since 2000. While she remains an integral part of the L’Oreal Paris worldwide Dream Team, she was unfortunately unavailable for our New Year commercial shoot due to prior commitments,” the statement added.
The statement also made it clear that since Ash was busy with her prior commitments, she wasn’t able to make it for the shoots of the commercial ad of New Year.
Praising the beauty, the statement added, “She (Ash) is one of the most iconic women of our times and is certainly the face of L’Oreal Paris internationally and in India for a range of products,”
