So You Think You Can Dance makeup artist hired by Sarah Palin

October 28, 2008

The Blogosphere has recently been abuzz about the fact that Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin has paid Amy Strozzi $22,800 for two weeks of hair styling following Palin being selected as the Republican nominee for the Vice Presidency. According to The New York Times’ Maureen Dowd: “the McCain campaign made her traveling makeup artist, Amy Strozzi, the highest-paid individual on the campaign for the first two weeks of October. Ms. Strozzi, who earned an Emmy nomination for her war paint skills on the TV show “So You Think You Can Dance,” made $22,800 for the first half of this month.”

According to the Internet Movie Database, Strozzi was nominated for a Prime time Emmy in the “Outstanding Makeup for a Multi-Camera Series or a Special” category for her work as a makeup supervisor on So You Think You Can Dance season in 2005. She has also worked on the Late Show with Craig Ferguson. It has been reported that GOP Candidate John McCain’s wife Cindy McCain recommended Strozzi.

What does this mean for the So You Think You Can Dance tour? Not much, but anything that has people talking about this wonderful show is good news for us here at SYTYCD tickets.
