Hehe. And for the rest of this beautiful ensemble piece- what can I say. Anything for Baz.”

He added, “l was filming a project in LA when I got the call. And I have truly been blessed that this was the 3rd time Anna Wintour who I can never thank enough, has had me out and about for my American Vogue outing. So, we jump on a plane and we play. It was one shot, and the best part about Baz coming in was he shot the whole thing like scenes so, there's my dreams of working with him coming true. Well, not fully - what? Almost. what??? And Blake you are a rockstar, I do hope our paths cross again in good time. Mr Jackman - Aye aye.”
