Your mama always said ‘don’t judge a book by its cover,’ but Beyonce’s latest L’Oréal Paris ad is an exception to the rule! The “Flaws and All” songstress appears to be rocking lighter strands and blanquita fair skin for the Feria hair color campaign.

Even though the transformation resembles a Michael Jackson album cover, the leading cosmetic company released a statement declaring:

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

Even a colorblind viejo could notice a difference! Si o no? [Daily News Los Angeles]
