Julia Roberts - deal for millions

Julia Roberts is the new face of Lancome, the online edition of British Vogue reports. The pretty woman will be a global ambassador of the brand and for that role she will receive over $20 million. The first ad she features in, shot by Mario Testino, is for a Lancôme’s mascara and will be broadcasted around Europe in March.

The Oscar-winning actress was a fan of the brand long before the deal was announced. The star's lipstick of choice is Lancôme's L'Absolu Rouge in Rich Cashmere - a hydrating nude praline shade.

"By her remarkable personality and career, Julia Roberts is an emblematic woman of her time. Her exceptional talent, her radiance, and her strong commitments perfectly echo Lancome's values. We are convinced she will embody the brand in the most sublime way possible," says Youcef Nabi, President of Lancôme International.
