A French makeup artist who has worked regularly at the White House, including at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner itself, has spoken to FRANCE 24 about her experience and the security surrounding the US president. Audrey Lefèvre has made up Presidents Bill Clinton and Joe Biden, as well as more recently Ivanka Trump and other members of the Trump family. She says the gunman at the dinner on Saturday only breached the first of many levels of security.

Lefèvre also told us about her book "La Confidente", which guides the reader through her former life: being born in northern France and later working as a model before moving into makeup. She spoke to us in Perspective.
