L'Oréal Paris taps Soo Joo Park as first Asian-American spokeswoman

Thrilling news: Style.com is reporting that L’Oréal Paris has just hired its first Asian-American spokeswoman, Soo Joo Park.

The stunning platinum bombshell landed a two-year contract as a global spokeswoman with the international cosmetics giant, where she will be joining a diverse and beautiful cadre of spokeswomen that includes Beyoncé, Eva Longoria, and Zoe Saldana. This coup of an appointment comes on the tails of Park’s recent Redken hair campaign; the 26-year-old is quickly ascending to the top of the fashion food chain.

This is exciting and comes right after the unveiling of Serena Williams’ watershed April Vogue cover earlier this week — diversity in fashion is always a good look.

Park remains refreshingly humble about it all: “I’m extremely honored and so happy because they’re both global brands that are known for pushing innovation and beauty that not only comes from the outside, but also the inside,” she told Style.com.

With an ethos on beauty like that, we’ll gladly take two of whatever product she’s hawking.
