Good news everyone. Ali’s back in Los Angeles to film Heroes again. But the return has prompted some changes. Can you spot them?

In Toronto:

In Los Angeles:

Ali Larter comes out of the hair salon

Yes, she’s now on the committee of the First Annual Los Angeles Gala, which is being hosted by Friends Without Borders and will raise money for the second largest HIV/AIDS facility in Cambodia, the Angkor Hospital for Children.

Well spotted. How’d you do that?
