You may think we watch too much TV but we felt we just had to share this with you!
Wow!
Vinod Thakur has become the talk of India’s Got Talent – he’s an inspiration to us all.
Unfortunately he was born without legs however in five months he has taught himself the latest dance moves by watching dance videos. Watch from 1 : 03 mins.
He received a standing ovation after wowing the judges and the audience with his amazing audition and was put through to the next round.
Award winning HOB Salons’ receptionist, Katie Waissel, auditioned on the X Factor on Saturday 21st August and managed to divide the judges opinions about getting through to bootcamp.
Cheryl Cole said yes, Louis Walsh said no and Simon Cowell was unsure at first but decided to put her through in the end.
We at GMBO thought she was brilliant and wish her luck for the next round – Go Katie!
GMBO.TV has gone doggy mad recently (must be something in the air) and when we chanced upon this spectacular doggy ice-cream van recently at the Boomerang TV Pets Party in Regents Park, we just knew we had to share it with you too.
The K99 Ice Cream Van For Dogs
The van will be found in parks throughout this summer and, rather than the traditional chimes, the van will be playing the theme tune to Scooby Doo.
Spokesperson for The Boomerang Pets Party Sally Bezant said: ‘Every year Brits consume an average of around 50 ice creams per person, with the majority of these eaten in the summer months…… with this in mind, the Boomerang Pets Party decided to take action and bring ice cream to the dogs of Britain too.’

Akin Konizi of HOB Salons is announced British Hairdresser of the Year for a second year running at 25th British Hairdressing Awards
….and HOB reign again as the Best of British with a hat-trick win.
There were celebrations amongst the HOB Salons team at the prestigious British Hairdressing Awards last night, where they enjoyed a hat-trick win for a record-breaking second consecutive year and which saw the group’s International Creative Director, Akin Konizi awarded the ultimate title of British Hairdresser of the Year for a second year running.
It was a night London-based hair group HOB Salons will not forget with Darren Bain firstly picking up the London Hairdresser of the Year title. He got up on stage again with the HOB Creative Team to accept the Artistic Team of the Year Award before the whole team stood up to applaud Akin winning the final award of the night for British Hairdresser of the Year.
Held in the spectacular Great Room at the Grosvenor House in London’s Park Lane on 23 November, The British Hairdressing Awards, presented by Hairdressers Journal International and sponsored by Schwarzkopf Professional, celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2009. Dubbed the ‘Oscars’ of the hairdressing world, the evening was compered by X Factor presenter Dermot O’Leary to an audience of over 1750 guests from the world of hairdressing, fashion and media.
Recognising and rewarding the creativity of the British hairdressing industry, Akin Konizi held onto the esteemed British Hairdresser of the Year Award, making him only the third hairdresser in the history of the awards to win this title two years in a row after Trevor Sorbie and Beverly C and cementing his position as one of the hairdressing greats.
Acknowledged as a cutting genius, Akin is one of three Company Directors behind HOB, a group of 18 successful salons located throughout London, Hertfordshire, Middlesex, Essex and Leeds. Based himself at the company’s flagship branch in London’s Camden Town, his trademark precision cutting techniques epitomise the HOB brand and his natural ability to translate hair trends into fashion-led, beautiful styles has given Akin a loyal following amongst other hairdressers, journalists, clients and celebrities such as chart-topper Pixie Lott.
Talented stylist and HOB Academy educator, Darren Bain competed against 5 other top stylists within the much sought-after category of London Hairdresser of the Year and was overwhelmed to win this coveted title for the first time, whilst the HOB Creative Team were elated to beat off stiff competition to be crowned the Artistic Team of the Year for the second year running.
Publisher/Editor-in-Chief of Hairdressers Journal International, Jayne Lewis-Orr adds, “British hairdressing is renowned throughout the world for its creativity and innovation, and with the British Hairdressing Awards we are recognising, rewarding and celebrating the best of British. Akin Konizi, Darren Bain and the HOB Creative Team should be incredibly proud of their achievements”.
After receiving the ultimate award of the night Akin Konizi exclaimed; “I was thrilled to win not only the British Hairdresser of the Year Award but also the Artistic Team of the Year Award twice in a row. I am incredibly proud of Darren Bain who has been recognised for the talent he is in winning the London Hairdresser of the Year title. Words cannot describe how proud HOB Salons are to be recognised as the best in Britain and in our home city of London and we look forward to flying the flag for British hairdressing over the next year. I’d like to thank everyone that voted for me, my wonderful team at HOB, HJ and Schwarzkopf Professional for putting on the awards and Wella Professionals for their fantastic support”.
