Born in 1973 in Kabul, Mezghan Hussainy left Afghanistan with her family after the Soviet invasion in 1979. In the U.S., she worked as a dental hygenist and a part-time actress before stumbling into the world of make-up artistry when a friend asked her to work at Robinson’s May in Los Angeles. Her big break came when she was hired as the makeup artist to actor John O’Hurley on the game show, To Tell The Truth. In 2003, she landed a position on the set of American Idol, and is now chief make-up artist to Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell, as well as So You Think You Can Dance and Family Feud. She also launched her own make-up line Me by Mezghan, which has been featured on QVC.
In recent days, Mezghan has been linked to the curmudgeon Simon and it looks like things are getting quite serious. According to The Daily Mail (UK), “She and Cowell enjoyed a chemistry from the start and she would rave to friends about his charisma and how ‘funny’ she found him.” The couple were spotted this weekend as they left the upscale Mr. Chow restaurant in London.
