“We were filming in Hawaii and there were sacred rocks. And they were, I don’t know, they were ancestors. Who knows? They were sacred and you’re not supposed to sit on them because you’re not supposed to expose your genitalia to them.”
“I, however, was in a Wetsuit for the whole shoot. … (And) oh my good, they were so good for butt itching!”
