Judd Apatow: Kanye West Summoned Me to Talk About His Jacket

Kanye West — genius rapper, militant fashion designer, mad-hatter creative and pop culture lightning rod — wanted to talk with Apatow on the set of 2013’s Anchorman 2:

Apatow reflected on his experience with West on Saturday during a charity stand-up performance that also promoted his new Pete Holmes HBO series “Crashing.”

Two hours later, he walks out of his trailer wearing the red jacket we picked and goes, ‘I guess this is fine.'

Apatow did not consider West unreasonable, saying the business needs crazy people to be creative and groundbreaking.

Things ran smoothly form there, and Apatow and director Adam McKay even got a sneak preview of West’s critically acclaimed album “Yezzus.”

The “Love” creator maintains it was still the most unique musical experience of his life, one he was thrilled no one else would ever witness in such unusual circumstances.

“Five minutes later he was doing it for the makeup artists,” Apatow concluded.
