also
got
a
nod.
During

Chastain
was
quoted
by
the
People
magazine
as
saying,
“I
will
absolutely
be
present
when
the
makeup
category
is
being
called,
and
if
that
means
I’m
not
doing
press
on
the
red
carpet
or
ABC
or
whatever
it
is,
then
so
be
it.”

Notably,
the
move
comes
after
Academy
announced
changes
to
this
year’s
broadcast.
The
winners
of
eight
categories
will
be
announced
prior
to
the
live
telecast,
including
Best
Makeup
and
Hairstyling.
The
speeches
of
winners
will
then
be
broadcasted
in
between
the
live
telecast.

Talking
about
the
move
Chastain
added,
“The
most
important
thing
for
me
is
to
honour
the
incredible
artisans
who
work
in
our
industry.
So
much
attention
is
on
the
actors,
we’re
like
the
face
in
some
ways,
because
you
go
to
a
movie
and
you
see
us.
A
lot
of
people
don’t
understand
how
beyond
an
actor
a
performance
is.
Look
at
this
incredible
makeup
team,
Tammy
Faye
goes
through
three
decades.”

The
actress
had
revealed
that
during
production
she
spent
several
hours
a
day
in
the
makeup
chair,
as
makeup
artists
Justin
Raleigh,
Linda
Dowds
and
Stephanie
Ingram
dramatically
transformed
her
into
the
televangelist
with
intense
makeup,
prosthetics
and
wigs.

by
Chastain
herself,

Faye’s
faith-filled
life.
