Actresses are Awesome
Well, color me duped. I thought the "hair wig out" scenario was real. I said to my wife last night, referring to the video I posted HERE, "if that wasn't real, then those girls are really good actresses.
As it turns out, they're really good actresses.
CTV.ca reports:
It appears a popular YouTube video of a screaming bride-to-be with a bad haircut was actually spearheaded by a major hair product company.
Sunsilk Canada revealed Thursday that a video clip seen so far by more than 2 million people on the popular video portal YouTube was an "initiative" by the hair product company.
There had been widespread debate about the authenticity of the clip, titled "Bride Has Massive Hair Wig Out." As it airs on YouTube, the video appears to be an amateur recording of a young woman frantically chopping her hair off during a meltdown an hour before her wedding. It's not obvious that the video is a dramatization, nor that it's affiliated with any organization.
It was revealed earlier Thursday that the video, which even made it Wednesday onto NBC's The Today Show, was indeed fiction.
"We're all actors so we're really excited for all the opportunities for everyone," Jessie Behan, the real-life sister of Jodi, told Canada AM. The girls appeared on Good Morning America and and had been due to make an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. But when the producers told the foursome that only two could appear on the show, they turned down the offer.
The girls' attempts to gain notoriety has worked...
When asked if he thought the video was real, Toronto film director Norman Jewison told the newspaper on Wednesday that he suspected the video was staged. But he said he'd give her a job in an instant. "Wouldn't you hire her as an actress? I sure would," Jewison said. "If she's not one, then maybe she should become one. It's hysterical."
