Katrina Kaif will grace the red carpet at the 68th Cannes International Film Festival as the ambassador of cosmetic brand L’Oréal Paris. She says she can’t wait to join the other global ambassadors, which also include Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor.

L’Oréal Paris will celebrate 18 years of its partnership as the official makeup partner for Festival De Cannes, and it promises an exciting line-up of its spokespeople ready to walk the red carpet from May 13-24.

In the past, Aishwarya and Sonam have made India proud with their stunning beauty and fashion statements, and now Katrina -- who has worked with top-notch stars and filmmakers in her over a decade-long acting career in Bollywood -- is ready to sport a specially created look for her debut at Cannes.

“I’m very excited to represent L’Oréal Paris and India at the Cannes Film Festival this year. Being an actor, it is very inspiring to attend an event that celebrates all forms of cinema. As a L’Oréal Paris ambassador, I can’t wait to meet the other global ambassadors and help set new beauty trends for this year,” Katrina said in a statement.
