N*E*R*D Hitting The Road With Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco and
RIHANNA
Quote:

These days, he spends more time on private planes or pimped-out tour buses than cruising in his fleet of luxury vehicles. He's about to hit the road with Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco and Rihanna for a U.S. tour, then N.E.R.D is off to Europe for the summer. While his buddy Kanye plays with the idea of nerd chic, Pharrell Williams lives it. "It's not that I'm necessarily proud of being a nerd," he says, as if he isn't the coolest one around. "It's who I am." After detailing the fashion history of his pricey bag, he seems slightly embarrassed that he has no idea how to spell the name. When I find it listed in my notes and show it to him, he closes his eyes and tries to spell it from memory, grimacing when he gets one letter wrong. His favorite television channel is Discovery, and when he finally recalls the name of the movie that gave him an idea for a song the other night, it's the quintessential hipster nerd flick, Rushmore. He strips down to his boxers to change outfits in the middle of the penthouse, revealing the lanky body of a teenage boy and, although he just celebrated his 35th birthday, responds like one when asked what he likes to see a woman wearing: "Other than nothing?" His only response to the inevitable follow-up question -- dating anyone? -- is to look down at the jeans he's slipping into, which I take as a non-verbal "no comment." If he is single, he's not looking to mingle. His partying days are over. "Who wants to be around loud music and drunk young bitches all night? I ain't with that at all."
