Melissa McCarthy, nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her work in Can You Ever Forgive Me?, received the MUAHS Distinguished Artisan Award, celebrating her career and the wide range of characters she’s portrayed. She is the first female artist to receive the award, which presented by hair stylist Linda Flowers, a collaborator on McCarthy’s numerous characters for many years.
“I’m a character actress. I fall in love with the color and the insecurity and the flaws of the women I get to play but the only way that I’m able to do right by them is by building them step by step with hair and makeup. It doesn’t happen without you,” McCarthy told Deadline at the MUAHS. “Thank you for always being a heavily diverse and inclusive group who are open and accepting… this is the world I want to live in. It’s always a place of love.”
Sue Cabral-Ebert, outgoing IATSE Local 706 president and award-winning makeup artist, was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award for makeup presented longtime friend and actress Linda Gray. Emmy-winning hair stylist Robert Louis Stevenson received a Lifetime Achievement Award for hair styling from Margaret Avery, his stylist on The Color Purple and The Jackson’s: An American Dream.
The MUAHS were handed out one day after the Academy reversed its decision to hand out the Oscar for Makeup and Hairstyling during commercial breaks. The Academy had previously said it planned to present that award as well as the statuettes for cinematography, film editing, live Action Short during breaks, then play the acceptance speeches later in the broadcast, but reversed course amid intense criticism.
The Real co-host Loni Love applauded the decision Saturday.
“Can you imagine if we didn’t have hair and makeup for the movies? They had to change because they had all that backlash. They had to change it,” Love told Deadline. “They feel like sending actors to the Oscars on the red carpet without makeup and hair probably wouldn’t work. They need you guys.”
