Happy Hump Day! Once again, I’m filling in for Don Durito and continuing my theme of music nominated at awards shows. This week, I’m sharing the music videos nominated at the Makeup and Hair Stylists Guild Awards.
I begin with the same artist I began with last week, Katy Perry, this time in “Swish Swish,” which was nominated for both Makeup and Hair Styling in a Commercial or Music Video.
Starring Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Molly Shannon, Terry Crews, Hafþór Júlíus “Thor” Björnsson, Bill Walton, Rich Eisen, Gatan Matarazzo, Jenna Ushkowitz, Christine Sydelko, Dexter Mayfield, Doug The Pug, Russel “Backpack Kid” Horning, Iris Kyle, Rob Gronkowski, Karl-Anthony Towns, Joey Chestnut, the ladies of GLOW (Sydelle Noel, Britney Young, Kia Stevens, Jackie Tohn), Carter Wilkerson, West Hollywood Cheerleaders, Amanda LaCount, and Nugget as herself.
Just like last week, Katy Perry was competing with Pink, this time for her collaboration with Eminem, Revenge. Unfortunately, the actual video is not available. As Breathe Heavy reported, Pink Scrapped The Music Video For Her Eminem-Assisted Track “Revenge”.
Pink will not allow her “Revenge” music video to see the light of day.
The singer filmed a visual for her Eminem collab, a track about getting even with a cheater, but she decided to leave it on the cutting room floor? Why? It was “terrible.”
“We shot it and it was terrible. It’s never coming out,” Pink confirmed to The Sun. “It just didn’t work and it was the wrong timing for it.”
Oh, well, enough people saw it that it was nominated for Best Make-up in a Commercial or Music Video, although we won’t. Since this diary is about the music more than the visuals, here’s the censored audio.
Follow over the jump for the other two nominated music videos.
Competing against both Katy Perry and Pink for Best Make-up in a Commercial or Music Video was “Run” by the Foo Fighters.
Yes, that’s the Foo Fighters under all that makeup.
The final music video nominee was Selena Gomez for Best Hair Styling in a Commercial or Music Video.
Yes, that’s Selena Gomez playing four different roles with lots of wigs.
Unfortunately, none of the music videos won. Instead, one of the commercials they were competing against took home both the Make-up and Hair Styling trophies. I’ll reveal it in the comments.
Before I do, I’m concluding the diary proper by quoting Don Durito.
For those of you wondering how I and Neon Vincent are circumventing Sucuri to embed videos, here is an example of the embed code we use, so that you can replicate as wanted:
Just remember that each unique 11-digit video code in YouTube needs to be pasted in two separate locations within the embed code in order for your video to show up properly. So easy that I can do it!
With those instructions, feel free to post your favorite videos (preferably with good hair, makeup, and costumes 🙂 in the comments.
