Mariah's Make-Up Artist Paul Starr Found Dead

A lot of times celebrities will refer to their make-up artists as their closest friends--they're not only there for the stars at those rough 6am wake up calls but prove to be confidants and advisors.

Celebrity make up artist Paul Starr, 48, who had worked with Angelina Jolie, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Alba and Renee Zellweger, was found dead after neighbors alerted the authorities. The cause of death is unknown at this time, according to WENN.

Starr, 48, had worked in the make-up industry for over two decades and won praise from Hollywood's elite. His works with Mariah included make-up design for The Emancipation of Mimi, as well as Playboy in 2005/2006, Glamour in 2007, and the most recent Elle photo shoot in May 2008.
