Weirdly, only a few individuals would come back out the same way, every 20 minutes or so - which begged the question, what is everyone doing up there? Is there a back exit? Trap door in the floor? The few individuals who came back down would beam at me, a complete stranger sitting in the foyer of a hotel lobby, on the way out. I watched as several groups were ushered upstairs for 10-to-15-minute interview sessions. The Fenty team would prove to be nothing if not brutally efficient. Still, no one there during operational hours seemed to wait for much longer than an hour, at most. The doorman informed me that people started lining up at 10:30 a.m. Men and women, predominantly people of color, wearing mostly black, politely lined the Hotel Rivington entrance as the doorman walkie-talkied back and forth with unseen casting coordinators, sending groups of about ten up at a time. It was as if an entire department-store beauty-counter staff had en masse flocked to this event. Nary an eye appeared un-lashed, nor cheekbone un- strobed, nor hair untouched by some sort of heat-styling tool. In the New York running were an assortment of people with and without train cases, roller suitcases, and several W-magazine-sized portfolio binders clutched tightly to the chest.

This non-traditional interview process levels the playing field and allows artists everywhere an opportunity and have their work seen and be considered for a global position for a dynamic new brand. By opening this up the our larger makeup community we hope to build a diverse team of beauty experts who excel in the areas of artistry, elevated education, makeup experience and have an ability to best represent a brand. We will be hitting three major makeup cities and hold Open Interviews to find the artist and artists whose talent, drive and personality make them the right person for the position and separate them from the pack.

Just a week prior, the open casting was announced via Instagram from a few professional celebrity makeup artists, including James Vincent, saying: James Vincent and Kendo Beauty are excited to announce that the search is on to hire…. With the release date slated for this coming fall, the time to assemble the Fenty Beauty squad has come. Nearly a year in the works since being teased, the deal was inked April 2016 over a $10 million licensing deal with the Kendo division of LVMH (the beauty-brand developer responsible for Kat Von D and Marc Jacobs Beauty). After all, Fenty Beauty is “the Rihanna makeup line” and Rihanna is the most marketable celebrity possibly ever. In the long tradition of people lining up for celebrity and celebrity-adjacent events, I can’t say I wasn’t a bit surprised to arrive at the open interview for Fenty Beauty’s global makeup-artist team at the Rivington Hotel on the Lower East Side back in February to find a line of perfectly coiffed hopefuls modestly stretching half a NYC block.
