L’Oreal Fires Belgian World Cup Fan Axelle Despiegelaere After Her Hunting Trip Picture Goes Viral: Axelle Poses With Dead Animal, Posts Crude Captions

Belgian World Cup fan Axelle Despiegelaere just got fired by L'Oreal for her big game hunting photos! Looks like her modeling career is over just as it started. L'Oreal, an organization that is very anti-animal testing, spotted Axelle Despiegelaere posing with dead gazelles after her big game hunting trip and decided that the Belgian fan may cause bad rep for the company. The fact that the caption was equally crude didn't help Axelle Despiegelaere either.

The table just got turned for the hottest World Cup fan Axelle Despiegelaere who got her fairytale ending. She was scouted by L'Oreal as a hair model when her picture of cheering for the Belgium World Cup team went viral. People on social media dubbed her as one of the "hottest" fans of World Cup 2014.

She signed a contract to star in a L'Oréal Professionnel Belgique social media campaign. The video of her getting a hair makeover has now over a million views on Youtube.

But photos of her cheering and waving the Belgian flag weren't the only things that went viral. Turns out that Axelle Despiegelaere travel abroad quite often, even to Africa where she hunts big game!

Check out her hunting photo here:

Axelle captioned the photo, "Hunting is not a matter of life or death. It's much more important than that..this was about 1 year ago...ready to hunt Americans today haha."

Yikes. So she has been hunting big game since she was 16. This sounds a lot like the American cheerleader that went viral for posting pictures of her with her dead animals.

Axelle Despiegelaere had bigger things on the line for her so she should have watched out what she put out there. But it's too late to do damage control. L'Oreal cut ties with Axelle saying that the contract has been "completed".

The company was also keen to stress the fact that it "no longer tests on animals, anywhere in the world, and does not delegate this task to others".
