Taylor Hicks Signs Endorsement DealBirmingham - Clueless Press International Not to be outdone by runner-up Katharine McPhee, American Idol king Taylor Hicks today inked an endorsement deal with Huge Enormous Hair! (HEH!). The company, long a stalwart in the hair products industry, has until now produced products exclusively for women. "We felt this was an incredible opportunity for an Alabama corporation. The hometowm boy makes good image of Mr. Hicks will give the new products a credibilty factor that should guarantee a solid introduction into the competitive market of men's hair products, " said company president Ida Staidholm. "Initially we will introduce two products; Gray-To-Go for young men seeking an older, more sophisticated look, and Gray-No-Way for older men looking to maintain the look of youth. The women's products will continue to be sold exclusively through beauty shops, and the men's products will now enjoy that same status in the barbershops throughout the Southeast."
Mr. Hicks was unavailable due to his inability to obtain a sidetrip release from the American Idol tour management team.
The announcement was made at the corporate offices in rural settings south of Birmingham. The turnout for the announcement was smaller than expected due to Mr. Hicks' absence and many members of the press becoming lost. But this reporter, having been born and raised in nearby Mississippi, had no trouble following the directions provided by the corporate press office. Pretty clear directions actually; go south on the big road until you come to the water tower, then turn right, follow the road until you come to the rusted Chevy pickup in the drainage ditch, turn right and then turn left at Joey's produce stand, and go about a mile past Silas' place. In this case, experience and familiarity has provided me with yet another exclusive.
On the way back to Birmingham after the press conference, I pulled into Irene's truck stop for gas, and decided to pop into the cafe there for a helping of their world renowned blackberry cobbler. As my waitress placed the succulent pastry in front of me, I asked her if she used Huge Enormous Hair! products. Proudly caressing the blond beehive on top of her head, she said, "You bet, hon. The color of my hair came from one of their bottles, and the hairspray is the only one I know of that keeps my hair from falling over. My mom uses it too. She prefers the pink tinted hair look, and my aunt Sue prefers the blue tint. You want some iced tea with that cobbler?" A true southern sweetheart, but I couldn't help thinking of a blond Marge Simpson.
Initial response from NASDAQ was positive. Today's announcement has driven Huge Enormous' stock price to the highest level since Bobbie Gentry ("Ode to Billie Joe") disclosed her use of their products in 1967.
So, the next time any of you guys want to change your look, find the nearest red, white and blue barber pole, walk in and say, "HEH!"
