For decades, cosmetic giant L\u2019Oreal <\/a>Paris has been almost synonymous with the Cannes Film Festival. The brand has been a sponsor of the prestigious film festival, bringing some of the world’s top stars to the red carpet for years. Among the biggest L\u2019Oreal ambassadors at Cannes over the past 20 years has been Bollywood star Aishwarya Rai<\/a>, a regular on the Cannes red carpet. So it was strange when L\u2019Oreal unveiled its ambassadors at Cannes\u2019 Le Martinez Hotel with giant banner posters this week, and Aishwarya was absent.<\/p>\n

The six posters included other major L\u2019Oreal ambassadors, including another Indian star, Alia Bhatt<\/a>, but Aishwarya was conspicuously absent. L\u2019Oreal Paris shared the visual on their Instagram account, writing, \u201cConsider this L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris\u2019s official check-in, Le Martinez is officially home for the Festival.\u201d However, the comments were filled with Aishwarya Rai fans questioning her absence from the promotions. \u201cWhere’s the mother of Cannes #AishwaryaRaiBachchan,\u201d asked one. Another added, \u201cIt’s too much! This time, L’Oreal is going overboard. The poster doesn’t feature a legend like Aishwarya, who made the L’Oreal brand popular across the entire Asian continent, but instead highlights some actresses who are just two days old!\u201d One even went as far as to say, \u201cI’m sorry but Aishwarya Rai will forever be much bigger than Alia Bhatt.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For decades, cosmetic giant L\u2019Oreal Paris has been almost synonymous with the Cannes Film Festival.
