Freida Pinto was spotted at the GQ Men of the Year Awards

Freida Pinto was spotted at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in Mumbai, India today (October 3).

The South Asian actress was all smiles as she posed for the press in a stunning black dress looking beautiful.

In related news, rumor has it that Freida’s skin tone has been lightened in the new L’Oreal ad campaign, but the cosmetics brand vehemently denies it.

L’Oreal stated, “This is with reference to certain incorrect reports on the internet about L’Oreal Paris lightening Freida Pinto’s skin-tone in the campaign ‘Colors Take Flight Project Runway’. L’Oreal Paris strongly reiterates that Freida Pinto’s skin-tone in the campaign has not been altered in any way.”

“This campaign was meant to highlight Freida Pinto’s make-up colors applied on her eyes and lips. Thus, some powerful studio lights with ring-flash have been used for this purpose to create a runway effect on the picture. There has been no whitening retouching process whatsoever on her face.”
