French actor and writer, Omar Sy’s story is one of grit and determination. Raised in a low-income family, Sy wanted to make all his dreams come true right after completing high school. He started his career immediately instead of pursuing college and landed a gig on the radio for Radio Nova. This is where he met his partner Fred Testot. It was after a series of voiceovers and auditions that he went on to bag a role in the award-winning movie, ‘The Intouchables’. He went on to become the first black African man to win the prestigious, ‘Cesar Award’. He was even presented with the ‘Globe de Cristal’ for best actor. Voted as France's favorite personality in the year 2012, Sy also starred in American films like the Transformers, Jurassic World, and X-Men. His popularity in comedy and acting is a complete contrast to the simple and ordinary life that he leads.

In the past, Omar Sy has worked with celebrity makeup artists which include: Charlotte Hayward and Sarai Fiszel.
