L'Oreal Is Racist

The French company appeared in court last week accused of using only white women to promote its Garnier shampoos.

Now Winslet and fellow British actor Clive Owen are facing pressure to end their associations with L’Oreal and make their stance on racism clear.

A Commission for Racial Equality spokesperson said: ‘We would ask those high-profile ambassadors to think carefully about whether or not they want to be associated with this organisation.

‘What a wonderful opportunity this could be to stand up to racism, to show that it simply has no place in today’s society.’ Winslet replaced actress Isabella Rossellini as the spokesmodel for L’Oreal-owned company Lancome’s Tresor fragrance just last month.

‘Inside Man’ star Owen was unveiled as the new face of Lancome’s luxury male skin products in May 2006.

Simon Woolley of race campaign group The 1990 Trust fumed: ‘It is shameful that those on L’Oreal’s payroll keep conveniently quiet. The correct thing to do would be to at least speak out or resign.’

Damn!!!!! Now I have to throw away all my L'Oreal products.... I wonder if I can get a refund....

Uma With A Broken Wrist

The 'Kill Bill' actress fractured her lower arm on the set of her latest movie, 'The Accidental Husband', late last week.
According to an on-set source, Uma, 36, snapped her wrist when "she was jumping to reach something and fell on her hand".
She initially didn't realise she had broken it but after going to bed she woke up the next day to find it was considerably swollen.
After going to hospital Uma had to undergo surgery to repair the damage.
Shooting on the movie, which also stars Colin Firth and Isabella Rossellini, will be delayed for a week while Uma's broken wrist heals.
She is believed to be currently recovering at her New York home with her two children Maya, eight, and four-year-old Roan.
