A tipster tells us the hair care brand Sunsilk was behind the creation of the strange “bridezilla” video which was posted on YouTube January 18 and received 9 million views before it was pulled. It’s back up now and in the video, a bride enters a hotel room full of bride’s maids, proceeds to flip out and cut her hair off because it looks so bad. Initially thought to be an innocently created farce, it’s now been revealed the four women in the video are actresses and were paid to appear in it. What wasn’t known until now, according to our source, is that Sunsilk, working with Toronto-based Capital C Communications, was initially involved but backed out at the last minute. It’s unclear why Sunsilk separated itself from the project.
While the four women are getting all the glory right now, we’ve spoken to the director of the video who has graciously promised us more details as soon as he makes sure all his legal “I’s” and “T’s” are properly crossed. As soon as we have more information, we will gleefully pass it along to you.
UPDATE: Sunsilk, perhaps jealous of all the media attention the four actors are receiving, is now acknowledging their involvement with the creation of the video.
