BluDomain officially announces it's Blu Guy of the Year and Blu Girl of the Year
!
Meet Our 2006 Blu Guy of The Year, photographer Troy Schmidt who literally painted himself BLU along with the help of many giggling ladies. We actually couldn't stop laughing when we saw this entry. A very creative idea. Blu takes risks (not sure if Troy will get his color back?) and Blu enjoys those who "think outside the box" (Troy literally had to go buy paint to complete this project) Troy has claimed his prize and we also learned he shaved his head for this contest. Way to go!
BluDomain announces 2006 Blu Girl of the Year Wendy Armstrong. She is wild and fun and will fit perfect with Blu. Excitement is what we hope to deliver in anything we do and of course Blu is about FUN.
Wendy can claim her VIP status by calling 303.589.5782 at 9 a.m. on Wednesday ( Live operators are now sleeping) ** It was a very tough decision and we truly thank everyone who felt they deserved this title. It was unbelievable... unbelievable that you all came up with such great concepts. You all Rock!
BluDomain feels this entry for 2006 Blu Girl of the Year deserves a prize! It definitely was a consideration as the concept is beyond creative but we just couldn't get around the feeling that others would disagree. A photograph that sends a mixed message and does it send a positive message for Blu? Would people see "Melanie Merkling" as a bad girl, a kick-$&%! girl or someone mysterious and sly? We just couldn't figure that out.
But Melanie it's obvious you thought out the overall concept and for that we are going to send you a $100.00 gift certificate to www.sephora.com E-mail us!
Yes I shaved my head. And that is LATEX paint! This was the funniest contest I have ever participated in. Very awesome idea.

Love the blue guy, but this was supposed to be a black and white image right? As stated in this post:
E. We will be looking for the "Blu Girl" or 'Blu Guy" of the YEAR. They will be officially titled. Blu Girl and Guy will be treated like royalty from Blu all year long. No waits, private phone line, one BluDomain team member to always be at your beckon call, and VIP treatment which of course we can't tell you now what that means. So girls and guys you must prepare a black and white picture of yourself holding a sign that reads " Blu Girl of the Year 2006" or "Blu Guy of the Year 2006" I repeat you will want this title.

I agree with the last post... you guys need to do something about this... award a second winner for the 'blu guy' of the year...

Yep, something needs to be done about this... Ever hear of the Blue Man Group?!? Not so original... probably a copyright or trademark infringement as well... Besides, wasn't it supposed to be a B&W photo...?
