The Mullet championships, that's right.
Voting is underway for the kids division of the USA Mullet
championships this year's child contestants.
I can read, the things that have been written for me.
[LAUGH] This year's contestants are something to behold, just there
over my shoulder and I don't like I'm far less interesting than they are.
So here we have Rustin from Pocahontas Arkansas.
Rustin Alphin, by the way the names are also almost as good.
Rustin looks like he's I don't know three, just bedhead and a beautiful mane.
I mean some really gorgeous.
>> He so cute, I mean, I don't wanna speculate about
the rest of the life that he lives, but he's so cute.
[LAUGH] >> Would he be cute
without the Mullet though?
>> And he's just he's a cute little kid, and I bet he's really proud of.
I hope people don't make fun of him for his Mullet.
Cuz these kids like it's not their decisions.
>> That kid is not, but what about William?
Look at William Dale Ramsey next to him.
Let's not forget about William with the glasses.
Them sunglasses is working for him.
And by the way, that is an American flag on the side of his head.
>> Okay, that's really advanced.
You know you know what though?
How fashion is cyclical and it always comes back whatever.
I feel like we're at a point where the tail of fashion has intersected
with the front lines of fashion.
Because a lot of those Mullets I think would be totally
at home in a bar in Lake Brooklyn.
>> No, absolutely.
>> I would, if I saw a bartender in Bushwick wearing Mullet with an American
flag shaved on the side of his head, I'd be like, that guy's cool.
>> Yes, working the bar at a hatchet throwing spot,
which for some reason is really big in Brooklyn right now.
>> Ironic hatchet throwing spot.
Because it's like they do the same thing they do in the rest of the country, but
just with a detached air of [INAUDIBLE].
>> Yeah, no, the mullet is ironic, I'm definitely democratic voter just you know.
Right, in order for the irony to be maintained,
you can never drive through Arkansas with that.
Because people will interpret the mullet in that and
the Arkansas context people take you very seriously.
>> Yes, and I'm not trying to judge, I'm not trying to look from what I saw of
the mullet championship doesn't seem to be any kind of maga themes.
No, nothing overtly political, but
Landry over here very much showing off that he is in fact a patriot with a much,
I would say better American flag than William had earlier.
Got a very cute smile, some freckles on it.
And over here, Emmett Bailey also getting the memo about the shades,
I don't know if those are Oakley's or what, what kind they are.
I mean, this kid feels like he's a few years away from
ranting in his car about the drag queens, but who knows?
Maybe Emmett's future is brighter than that.
>> I wanna give these kids the benefit of the doubt.
And I think Brock Higgins,
he's a great American.
>> What does that entail though?
[LAUGH] >> Okay, so what I hope for
these children, I hope first of all, they're so proud.
This is their homecoming,
this is their moment and I think- >> Erin,
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but my main aim is epic.
>> I think that his parents really went for it.
And if you have a name epic, you've got a lot to live up to.
Now what I hope is that these kids, I hope that they have great places to live and
they're comfortable, and happy and everything.
And then when they grow up, they're gonna come home from college and
they're gonna come home from wherever they move to.
And they're gonna show their friends that they brought home these pictures of them.
And it is going to be the best day of their friends lives or like future
girlfriends, future boyfriends coming, coming home and being like, my God.
This is my friend in a Mullet competition wearing reflective,
like rude dog in the dweeb style shades.
Remember the eighties cartoon rude dog in the well anyway,
that's that's the sort of shades that these kids are wearing.
And I think it's gonna be a source of joy in these kids lives.
I hope that it's joyful forever.
And I really wish, if I have any friends or
if I know anybody that's that's watching or
listening who was in a sort of hair based competition,
I need you to share those photos with me ASAP.
Because that is a source of your joy.
>> And and voting by the way ends today.
If you guys are watching mulletchamp.com to cast your vote, please go there.
And I have to say, I think Epic might deserve it.
Maybe it's just the name Eli looking very, very sleek himself.
That's all I can say without it being weird cuz these are children.
>> [LAUGH] Wait, is there a cat or dog?
There should be a cat and dog division.
>> Definitely, that's work.
That's more on the groomer.
>> Yes, next year molly competition,
if you're listening there needs to be a cat and dog division.
>> My poor cat, it would take a lot many months.
