John Hamn can suck it.

They had to write into his contract this year that he has to wear underwear on set because he likes not wearing underwear because it shows off his dick. And he fought that change in his contract.

I'm all for him being an exhibitionist, but him complaining about it strikes me as just one more way for him to get people to talk about him having a huge dick. (And, yeah, it's really clear if you look that he does have a gigantic one.)

Oooh, that's fascinating. If Kickstarter made you a _shareholder_ then that would be massive. Not for everyone, of course.

Thanks. Looks like it caused some disruption, but also a chunk of hype :->

This looks like the top and tail of the One Vision video:
