Makeup Artist Braves Cold for Denzel’s Wife, Not Prez
With a black President Obama button pinned to her lapel, Kendall Green, a Baltimore makeup artist, said she wasn’t able to make the trek down to the Mall for the inauguration speech.
She had no problem, however, making the cold walk to the Four Seasons Hotel on Tuesday afternoon to be on call to do makeup for Pauletta Washington, wife of Denzel Washington, for a ball tonight.
Pauletta Washington booked Green for the entire day. She charges anywhere from $500 to $2,000, with the cost depending on time and travel.
Green said she was excited at the prospect of doing the makeup for the wife of the movie star. She added that she already knew what she was going to do, having studied pictures of Washington online.
But even more exciting for Green was the prospect of running into Denzel. “If I see him I’m really going to be excited,” Green said, barely able to contain herself at the thought.
