Dubbed &quot;the world&#8217;s first reality hair ad,&quot; it&#8217;s a Procter &amp; Gamble-sponsored casting call for chicks who&#8217;d like to try Pantene shampoo during a live commercial with product pitchwoman and <em>What Not to Wear<\/em> star Stacy London. Well, I have a lot of hair, and it often needs to be washed, so I might just give this a shot. But other than a brief TV appearance on May 25 and spanking clean locks (and maybe a cut and style thrown in?), what could I win? Answer: tickets to a Bret Michaels concert, first-class airfare, backstage passes and a ride on his tour bus. Wait, what? You mean I&#8217;d get a freshly laundered &#8216;do just to hang around in a sea of skanky <em>Rock of Love<\/em> rejects in Michaels&#8217; entourage? Is this really the kind of brand message P&amp;G wants to put out? Besides, any association between Michaels and hair products is a head scratcher, since I suspect his wispy blonde tendrils are actually extensions sewn into his ever-present bandana. No bandana? Hello, baldie! So, I think I&#8217;ve changed my mind about uploading an audition video, but I sure appreciate the twisted attempt at humor. Thanks, P&amp;G!<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Posted by T.L.
