Hits Northland presenter Charmaine Soljak puts the blue nail polish on Six60 bassist Chris Mac that her daughter Sophia gifted the musician at Waitangi on Saturday.
For those who spotted a deep blue colour on Six60 base guitarist Chris Mac's fingers on Saturday night in Waitangi, not many would have guessed it was inspired by a 17-year-old Whangārei girl.
However, this unlikely outcome was played out when the renowned band member jumped at the opportunity to
wear blue nail polish, given as a gift by a young Whangārei wāhine.
Before performing to a sellout crowd of about 14,000 people at the Waitangi Sports Grounds, Mac and fellow Six60 member Eli Paewai were participating in a series of media interviews when The Hits Northland day radio announcer Charmaine Soljak said she had a gift for Mac from her daughter, Sophia.
Soljak then produced a pottle of blue nail polish which had been bought specifically for Mac - a regular user of nail polish.
To many onlookers' surprise, Mac was ecstatic with the gift and insisted he wear it while performing one of the world's biggest music productions of 2021.
