Default Apply different color to datalabels

I have a code that adds series to a chart.
I want to set the Datalabel.Interior.ColorIndex, but for some reason
the ClorIndex is not applyed to the DataLabel..

Any suggestion on why? Or how can i do this?

My current code includes:

With Sheets("Chart").SeriesCollection.NewSeries
.Name = Name
.XValues = XValue
.Values = YValue
.MarkerSize = 5
.ApplyDataLabels
.DataLabels.Interior.Pattern = xlSolid
.DataLabels.Interior.ColorIndex = C
.DataLabels.Border.ColorIndex = 1
.DataLabels.Font.Size = 7
.DataLabels.Position = xlCenter
.DataLabels.Orientation = 45
.DataLabels.ShowSeriesName = True
.DataLabels.ShowValue = False
End With

(where C is set to a valid value using a Select Case loop.)
