did anyone catch her on primetime TV yesterday appearing for Loreal? This is the same ad for which Heather Locklear has appeared before...looks like Ash's agents are doing a mighty fine job of getting her the right things.....

It would have to have been one of ABC, CBS or NBC (more than likely NBC). We were watching a show and out of the blue this ad appeared. For a minute I almost dismissed it since I also have dish (and hence Indian programming like SONY, Zee, B4U) and thought it may have been one of the desi channels....then I realised I was watching an american channel. I believe I have only seen top celebrities endorsing this product.....so it must mean that her agents have convinced the ad agency (and the client) that Rai is now a hot commodity in the international market....coming also as it is close on the heels of the release of BRIDE AND PREJUDICE....it felt nice to see her mug though I am not such a huge fan of hers.....always good to see a fellow desi make it big(or atleast on the way to)!

Does anyone have pics of a link of the video of her commercial for L'Oreal? I heard she was just beautiful in it....granted it is a cosmetics commercial, so they would make it their point to make her look damn good.

I know Ash also modelled for some European and US magazines. I suppose for the L'oreal ad she looked much better than usual. She's doing well, but maybe the reason she is doing well to be l'oreal is she doesn't look like the 'typical indian model', maybe because she is fair and has green eyes that she is more acceptable to L'oreal. I wonder if she did this 'business' when in Cannes?

What does a typical Indian model look like? Aishwarya Rai looks more Indian than Russian to me.

To all dark skinned ppl who feel under-represented in India, TOUGH! It's your call to sell yourselves as desirable, not Aishwarya Rai's. :p

Beyonce was the model when the last time I saw this ad. I'm certain that Ash's racial ambuigity will serve her well in the world of American advertisment Industry.

Here's the link to the ad:

http://www.aishwarya-forever.com/multimedia/video/ads/loreal.zip

She does look quite stunning in it.

It's a Windows Media player file so you'll have to play it on that.

Well for a start not many have green eyes and her fair skin-tone can pass for white eastern-european. Her features look Indian, but she looks like a very fair Indian of whose complexion is not very common among many Indians. :roll:
