Our inbox has been filled with goodness this week, which is a very welcome change.
First up is the marvelous news that our dear friend and founding Brits in LA member Martin Samuel was ( finally!) made an MBE.
It is a well-deserved honour for the three-times Oscar-nominated international film hairstylist. Martin helped to create iconic looks for Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow, Madonna in Evita and David Bowie’s red-and-blond look in The Man Who Fell To Earth.
Congratulations Martin, we are delighted for you!
British artist Katie Brightside may have been rather quiet for the last couple of years, but her hard work as finally paid off! This week sees the launch of her latest creation “Bad Romance” .
