Part Four: The Rise and Fall (and rise and fall...) of "TheMakeoverguy®"

It's 1996 when we hit a plateau. I felt like I was just grinding my wheels to keep it going. We got nothing really for appearing on Oprah. There wasn't a way for people to find us without anyone knowing what city we are in.Show more

Though we became known as a "Salon of the Stars," with such notables as seen in the video.

In the midst of it all I bought my mother a facelift. I knew they liked me and hoped for some pitch that we could make work. So I put in process what would include cosmetic surgery "young and sexy" makeover. This also would give me a discount, hopefully, should that publicity be worth it. We decided on Dr. David O. Smith and are glad we did. The results have been natural and beautiful still into her '80's.

It was around this time I had my first early mid life crisis. It dawned on me I was never going to be the performer I wanted to be if some great opportunity didn't come walking in the door. But then it did. Eiji Oue heard me sing, brought me in front of the general manager, Asadour Santourian and eventually those on the board (at a party, where we performed, where, following the performance I was told that they wanted me to perform for the Christmas show, The New Year's Eve Gala and Cabaret Pops singing Rodgers and Hammerstein. OMG! OMG! It was now or never.
