I don’t know but I like his sentiment: putting it on the line to create art (and employ hundreds of people in the process) is a hell of a lot more interesting as a process than an algorithm and a green screen.

Remember how I said Kate Hudson pulls up to the press junket ready to work? A big part of that is wardrobe; she pulls so many looks with her long-time stylist Sofia Lopez.
