L’Oréal Paris has signed up Elle Fanning as a new international spokesperson, reports Women’s Wear Daily (WWD). This was confirmed by the American actress, who shared the news on social media.
L’Oréal Paris — an official partner of the Cannes Film Festival — had announced that a new ambassador would be joining the brand during this year’s festival fortnight. The name of the new spokesperson has now been revealed days before the glamorous event kicks off in the French Rivera resort.
Elle Fanning has officially joined the club as the brand’s latest “Lorealista” in a prestigious line-up of international ambassadors. The star, who is just 19 years old, will make her debut for the brand at the Cannes Film Festival, where she also stars in Sofia Coppola’s in-competition movie The Beguiled. The star told WWD that the cosmetics brand evokes the comforting smell of her grandmother’s L’Oréal Paris lipstick.
“Thank you @lorealmakeup for welcoming me into your empowering and fabulous family!!! I am beyond proud to represent a company that celebrates women!!!” Elle Fanning said on Instagram.
