How to change the color of List of Figures' page numbering?

Question

I am trying to make a dark theme LaTex PDF because it would look awesome but I came across a problem: the color of page numbering for List of Figures is not changing no matter how hard I try. Here's the screenshot:

Everything worked perfectly even the dotted lines, but the page numbering on the right just won't budge. The page numbering for Table of Contents is working great and so I have no idea what's wrong.
I am using article class and I don't have any toc or tof package except for fancyhdr and caption.
I tried putting textcolor in every single place where I can put inside/outside the listoffigures and I tried using tocloft package but I'm not quite sure how to do that... I have also tried using addtocontents and captionsteup but it just won't change the color.
I'm not very good at LaTeX so I might be doing something wrong here if anyone could show me how that will be awesome.

You have to change the color for the text in the preamble. Then the color of normalcolor (used by eg. page numbers in ToC, LoT etc.) is changed too.
Example:

documentclass{article}

usepackage{xcolor}
pagecolor{black}
color{white}

usepackage[colorlinks,linkcolor=blue]{hyperref}
renewcommandfamilydefault{sfdefault}
usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text
begin{document}
tableofcontents
blinddocument
end{document}

If you want to change the color of the text inside the document and normalcolor should be changed to the same color, then load package normalcolor and use resetnormalcolor.
Example:
documentclass{article}

usepackage{xcolor}
usepackage{normalcolor}

usepackage[colorlinks,linkcolor=blue]{hyperref}
renewcommandfamilydefault{sfdefault}
usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text
begin{document}

pagecolor{black}
color{white}
resetnormalcolor

tableofcontents
blinddocument
end{document}

The result is the same as above.
