Jared Leto
I remember seeing this image of these women wearing these bright clothes and patterns, and it struck me. I remember taking note and going, like, What is that? Who is that? and finding out it was Gucci and being surprised.

I don't know, when I was a kid, when I would see shows that changed my life, I would go to see shows where there was my mother taking us to see classic rock concerts, like Zeppelin, or when I saw Pink Floyd or when I saw, you know, when I was a little older, and I saw Nine Inch Nails, and I saw The Cure.
