Hugh Laurie new face of L’Oréal

House M.D. star Hugh Laurie may be recognised for his acting, but he’ll soon be known for his modelling skills as well. Laurie has been named the new face of L’Oréal’s Men Expert range.

At first I thought it was a mistake, but then I realised that L’Oréal wasn’t looking for models but real people with strong personalities, who are worth it... and who aren’t afraid to proclaim that using cosmetics can be a very masculine decision, after all," says Laurie.
