Only a few days left for “Best Lie about Your Age” Contest!

Krizia from www.myBeautyMatch.com

This is the last week for you to participate in the The Best Lie About Your Age Contest which will run until August 22, 2008.

There have been thousands of people from across the country visiting the DefineYourself.ca site to share their best lie stories and some of the entries are incredibly candid, crafty and quite humorous.

There have been some really interesting findings from the entries and I cannot wait to learn more and share them with you.

In a few days (on Friday, August 22), I will sit down with the panel of Define Yourself judges to determine the best lie story based on our criteria.

The judging panel will include women from seasons 1 and 2 of DefineYourself.ca. For an entire afternoon Robina, Megan, Fauna, Donna, Ann and I will be sitting around a table to discuss, debate, agree and disagree on the many entries that were submitted!

I’m sure there will be a lot to debate about and quite a few hilarious moments and I will report all of the highlights on the site.

Don’t forget, it’s NOT too late to participate. You can still submit a great “lie story” and enter a chance to win $1000 of Medical Spa pampering and rejuvenation!

To participate, simply visit http://www.defineyourself.ca/.

The “Best Lie about Your Age” Contest going strong!

There have been thousands of people from across the country visiting the DefineYourself.ca site to share their best lie stories. Nothing like a cool contest to grab people’s attention.

It’s quite fascinating how much easier it is to get people to admit to lying about their age in total anonymity as opposed to getting them to admit this on camera.

A few weeks ago, I tagged along with Aimee from DefineYourself.ca to invite Torontonians to share their best lie stories. Most people were quite happy to hear about the contest and they were thrilled at the idea of being able to win $1,000 of MedSpa pampering and rejuvenation, but when it came time to actually getting them to talk on camera … that was a whole different ball game.

The truth is that most people have lied about their age at some point or another for whatever reason, but they don’t necessarily let others know of that publicly.
People lie about their age for a number of reasons:

• Vanity
  
• Industry related realities for those working in front of the camera
  
• Ageism in the work place and the fear of being passed over for promotion
  
• Dating a younger partner
  
• Dating after a recent divorce or the break-up of a long term relationship
  
• Body image issues and not feeling happy about the visible signs of aging

The Best Lie About Your Age Contest will run until August 22, 2008. The judging panel consists of women from DefineYourself.ca’s previous season casts and yours truly!

The contest is open to all Canadian men and women and will be judged based on the craftiest and most outrageous story.
