I just discovered the brilliant tribute that my friends at Lipstick, Inc. put together about Motown founder, Berry Gordy, for the Rick Weiss Humanitarian Award he won last year. I was on hand (to do make-up) when the interview portion with Mr. Gordy was shot at his home. And as you can see by the picture, Mr. Gordy was both charming and warm. That will be a day I will never forget. So check out this wonderful tribute about a living legend and business genius.....Thanks Lipstick, Inc., you did an amazing job.
Here is a pic of myself and the Legendary founder of Motown records, Berry Gordy, last year at a video shoot we did at his home. He was very charming and warm. We spent the morning shooting and he sat down with the crew as we ate lunch. I love this photo and it sits above my computer in my office to inspire me everyday.
Although I've been doing hair and make-up for years, I always need to find inspiration to keep motivated through the drama of this business. Overall, I can say moments like the one above really "keeps hope alive" and makes it worth all the trouble to continue doing what I truly love.
