no shave zz (July 3, 2012) |
No amount of money will get ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons to whack off his world famous whiskers. Gillette once offered Gibbons and bassist Dusty Hill $1 million to shave off their beards for a razor commercial, but they turned them down flat. And Gibbons told BraveWords.com he’d tell Gillette to take a hike again if they asked. He said, “Even adjusted for inflation, this isn’t going to fly. The prospect of seeing oneself in the mirror clean-shaven is too close to a Vincent Price film. It’s a prospect not to be contemplated – no matter the compensation.”
