Homme Found Dead At Home


It's always a bad time for bad news, especially when the news is about a death. It is even more shocking when it is someone young with a full life ahead of them. And then add someone that you've seen on TV and wow - it's hit's home.
The latest tragedy struck Todd Homme, 23, a contestant of the Lifetime's Blush: The Search for the Next Great Makeup Artist was found dead at his New York home. The cause of his death is still under investigation.
Homme was found by his partner Neal Krogh, on Saturday night. Medical examiners couldn't confirm the cause of death of the seemingly healthy Homme. "He went to sleep basically and never woke up," Homme's mother Marianne Amster told TV Guide, "He was all excited about what was going on with the show. He was up all night, went to sleep during the day and he died in his sleep. I went to the medical examiner early today, and they took tissue samples from his organs and the doctor said they couldn't find anything wrong with him. No drugs, alcohol or pills."
The services will be held Wednesday with the burial scheduled the following day at noon. The finale of Lifetime's reality show is scheduled to air today.
The final episode of the Reality show is scheduled to air Tuesday, December 23, 2008. The winner gets a professional artist contract with Max Factor, a cash prize of $100,000 and the opportunity to be the makeup artist for an upcoming InStyle photo shoot.
