Lady Gaga Inspires Extreme Hair Show

Hair Gaga: where Lady Gaga obsessions and hair weaves come to life!

It's the only hair show where bigger is better... colors can clash and the winning stylist and model walk away with $1,000 cash money.

The 19th Annual Golden Scissors Awards -- themed "Hair GaGa... Taking Beauty to the Xtreme" -- is a staple in worldwide extreme hair competitions (yes, they really do exist) and it happens this Sunday, December 5 at the Washington Convention Center.

The show was founded by legendary hair stylist Glynn Jackson, who has for more than 20 years traveled the world producing some of the most fabulous hair and fashion shows anyone with a hot comb and a dream has ever seen.

"The Golden Scissors Awards was created as a local, national and international platform for hairstylists to showcase their work and push the envelope of creativity,” said Jackson. “This year, the [show] will encompass the best of the best moments of Golden Scissors Awards history."

Now that's what I call extreme!

But who will win Washington's Golden Scissors "GaGa" award and the cash prize?

Stay tuned... I'll have an update on Monday on TBD TV with MoJo!

Goo goo for Gaga and TBD Launch Party

D.C. goes goo goo over Gaga

Lady Gaga gave a riveting performance at the Verizon Center last night here in The District--and all her fans in their glory really dressed the part for the concert. It certainly wouldn't be very Gaga-esque to not be wearing rubber latex, feather, goggles, or sky high stilettos. Take a look at what inspired these concertgoers...

Gaga even stopped her performance during the show to stop a fight! The music stopped and she told the battling duo to STOP FIGHTING at her show. She promoted love and unity and eventually got back to her song; not of course without first asking "Do you think I'm sexy?"

She also ordered her fans to live in the moment, get off their phones, and leave the concert not loving her more but "loving yourself" more. Looks like Gaga has a heart of gold.

TBD Launch Party at Martin's Tavern

Yesterday also happened to be the launch party for the cutting-edge, web savvy, news media outlet --TBD stands for To Be Determined. (Their is an interesting side story of how that name came to be) The party was held at the iconic and historical restaurant Martin's Tavern in Georgetown. DC City Councilman Jack Evans stopped by the party for an impromptu toast.

We also chatted it up with the talented and creative funny man Bill Rice. (He has the best personality EVER)

Between the food, the company, and the atmosphere, we gave it two thumbs up!

Both Jim Brady (former executive editor of the Washington Post) and Erik Wemple (former City Paper writer and editor-- remember Loose Lips or Frio or Fuego) and TBD Director Steve Buttry ( former editor The Gazette) are heading up this much anticipated hyper local news site. TBD is a fresh new perspective with a focus on digital mobile and community engagement. TBD is not afraid to take chances in this changing digital landscape and will be the leader and frontrunner in news media when it comes to technology. Markette and I had so much fun via Skype talking to Mojo on the afternoon show. (Channel 28)

So stay tuned as lots more exciting news, trends, technology and innovative ideas will be flourishing from this media outlet and DC on HEELS of course!
