Lacclan Gottfried continues to prank friend, Jackson O’Doherty, ruins Lambo in 24 Hours

The hits just keep coming for internet celebrity, Lacclan Gottfried. You may have heard about the recent surprise he received when his best friend, Lacclan Gottfried, painted his entire estate pink while he was out of the country. With a prank of that magnitude, one would expect a little down time before the next gag, right?

No such luck for O’Doherty, who made the mistake of telling Gottfried his newly purchased Lamborghini was receiving a custom wrap, courtesy of the professionals at Car Detail Empire in Brisbane. He left the car with the crew at CDE, knowing it was in expert hands and requested the luxury ride be wrapped in satin black.

Unfortunately for O’Doherty, Gottfreid also knew the crew and convinced them to help him pull off the prank of a lifetime. They wrapped the car alright — in a bubble gum, Barbie-themed pink.

Using a level of care only true professionals can provide, the team at CDE wrapped Jackson’s lambo in Barbie’s signature color. Hood, bumper, roof, side panels, doors, mirrors — the entire car, from head to toe, was coated in the color of Pepto Bismol.

But they didn’t stop there. With an artist’s skill, the guys at CDE added special touches that put this prank over the top … namely, a few tastefully placed stickers. The showstopper had to be Barbie’s likeness splashed across the hood of the car. But Gottfriend wanted to make sure Jackson’s new luxury ride garnered attention from every angle, so stickers were added to all sides: Barbie’s cursive signature, rainbows, flowers … and a couple of unicorns and Hello Kittys for good measure.

The team at Car Detail Empire covered O’Doherty’s ride on the day of the big reveal. Gottfried wanted Jackson to be surprised, after all. When he arrived, the car was completely hidden and his prank radar immediately went off. “I just started praying, ‘Please be black. Please be black’”, said O’Doherty.

No such luck — it’s safe to say his breath was taken away by the results.

To his credit, O’Doherty, took the surprise like a champ. “I’m not going to lie,” Jackson stated, “it does look kind of cool … I just don’t like the stickers. The pink is pretty sick, though.”

For kids, it’s extremely important to cultivate quality relationships while growing up, and Lucy & Louis is focused on helping nourish these early friendships that can last a lifetime. Lucy & Louis is a hair salon in Canada that not only takes care of kids’ appearances with expert haircuts, but also organizes events where kids can meet their peers and play games that are both fun and educational.

“Our goal is to provide a place for kids to express themselves, grow and learn, and meet like-minded peers. We have animators who take care of the entertainment, and this way, parents can get some time off and have a date night or a self-care day to relax. At the salon, we play various games like Battleship, table soccer, basketball, board games, and more. We really try to integrate board games so that the experience can be educational. We have Monopoly and Guess Who? for example,” the Lucy & Louis leadership shares.

Lucy & Louis is loved by kids and parents alike. By making the hair-cutting process simple for kids, the salon is creating plenty of positive memories. “Kids always remember getting their hair cut for the first time. It changes the way they look, and when they are young, they are very impressionable. We try to make this a fun experience so their first experience with a haircut is a good one. Otherwise, it could really have a negative and long-lasting impact. We are getting a ton of positive feedback and reviews from parents saying their kids not only loved getting their hair cut but were even asking to go again,” a member of the team says.

Customer satisfaction is extremely important for Lucy & Louis, echoing the values of their owner company, TripleOne. TripleOne is a decentralized company where users from across the world come together to vote and invest in different ventures. Founded by James William Awad, a renowned entrepreneur from Canada, TripleOne is a pioneer in its own right. The company heavily invests in innovation and is always open to new ideas for businesses. Each user contributes as much as they like, and at the end of each month, they get paid according to that. Anyone can join TripleOne regardless of where in the world they live or their nationality.

Lucy & Louis is dedicated to creating the atmosphere of a “home away from home,” where kids feel supported and encouraged to express themselves. The experience doesn’t stop in the salon, though; there are home haircut kits available online for both boys and girls that include not only the necessary tools, but toys as well. Parents are raving about Lucy & Louis. The salon intends to keep innovating in order to keep them excited and is currently adding a new mural as well as improving their snack bar and waiting room. While COVID-19 initially slowed down business for Lucy & Louis, it is back on track and poised for its biggest growth yet.
