The Make-Up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild held its seventh annual MUAHS Awards Saturday night at the NOVO by Microsoft at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles. The guild, IATSE Local 706, handed out honors in 23 categories for the year’s best in film, TV, commercials and live theater.
Bombshell, Joker, and Downton Abbey were big winners in the motion picture categories. On the television side, Big Little Lies, Fosse/Verndon, and Saturday Night Live picked up multiple awards. Last year, Vice won a pair of MUAHS honors on its way to winning the Oscar in the category.
Also on the docket tonight, Patrick Stewart receive the guild’s Distinguished Artisan Award, with the star of the upcoming Star Trek: Picard presented the honor by his Star Trek franchise cohorts Brent Spiner, makeup and prosthetic artist James MacKinnon, and makeup artist and designer Michael Westmore.
“I’ve worn many wigs over the years and have been proud and happy,” Stewart quipped. “I have loved every one of them and have loved the people who made them for me and helped me with makeup.”
Thomas Burman was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award for Make-up and Martin Samuel received the Lifetime Achievement Award for Hair Styling. Late director John Singleton was awarded the In-Memoriam Honor, which his daughter Justice Singleton accepted.
“Besides a taco truck and a burger shop, he was always in a hair and makeup trailer. He would have his most truthful questions about not just the character, the story, but really life,” Justice said.
