Back when the Beastie Boys had their G-Sons Studio in Silver Lake, CA, Spike Jonze came over to check things out. Mike D, MCA, and Jonze went out to some thrift stores, a K-Mart, and this wig and beauty supply store. They bought a bunch of wigs and started to play around. By the next day they knew they were on to something...
They used the wigs (and the clothes) in the Spike Jonze-directed "Sabotage" video. For the video, they were all supposed to grow mustaches, but only Ad-Rock (the actor) ended up growing a real po-po 'stache.
At the 1994 MTV Video Awards, "Sabotage" was nominated for five different categories and lost in all of them.
