// M.E. AGAINST THE WORLD // Marc Ecko VS Alicia Key
WHAT ARE THREE HOME FURNISHINGS EVERY GUY SHOULD HAVE ?
A couch that’s presentable enough for the girl you’re trying to take advantage of; a proper cookware set that says you cook; and a tragically ironic piece of art that makes women think you’re more indie than you might be.
An incredible, comfortable bed (if it looks raggedy you’ll lose a whole lot of play); if you have a little bit of game, at least two wine glasses; and something simple, like toilet paper.
WHAT'S THE BEST HALLOWEEN COSTUME YOU'VE SEEN SOMEONE WEAR?
Five years ago, I had the makeup artist from Saturday Night Live transform my wife into Mr. Miyagi. I went as Daniel-san. That was magical. The photos hold up.
My homegirl dressed up as a sexy Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz and we officially called her Whore-othy.
WHAT'S THE MOST EMBARRASSING PHOTO ON YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA ?
I was at an event at the Sundance Film Festival and the people I was with took photos. Later we discovered one where this girl had lifted her shirt up—she’s completely exposed with star pasties on. It’s not embarrassing for me, but it’ll be embarrassing for her when she sees this.
I have a picture of my best friend bending over to pick up something and her pants came down. Her thong was completely out; she had no idea. I had to take a picture of it. But it’s just for me! [Laughs.]
WHICH PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IS THE MOST HIP-HOP?
Giuliani 100 percent. He takes no prisoners; he took down the entire mob. He’s easily vilified. He’s the most gangster. But I wouldn’t vote for him; he scares me.
Obama. He’s identifiable; he represents a black man who’s coming up and really has incredible vision. I just heard Common hollerin’ about him in his song.
WHEN IS IT OK TO SHARE A TOOTHBRUSH WITH YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER?
Never. At least wait until you’re married. It’s weirdly OK to put your tongue on places a woman sweats from but you can’t put it on this static, nonliving toothpaste receptacle. Somehow that’s less hygienic and gross. Have extra toothbrushes until you’re married.
I have to have kissed this person, without question. In the case of an extreme emergency, I will share a toothbrush. [Laughs.] I prefer to use a toothbrush that belongs to someone I know than have funky breath.
