    • Quotes
      [having final cut as part of their agreement on Good Fortune (2016)] He [John Paul DeJoria] was surprisingly cool about the whole thing. We wanted to tell a story that's true but also highlights something positive someone is doing for the world. There's value in having positive role models and stories, especially seeing where we are now as a nation. We need to hear the good stories about good Americans doing good things. He's human, not perfect, but he strives to make the world a better place and he does in fact do that. [2017]
