The New New Hotness
Tuesday, January 17, 2006
SWG: So Wuby, I have been wearing "The New Hotness" shirt out in public and the response has been overwhelmingly positive.
WUBY: I like to view my artwork as an extension of me...an extension of my soul if you will. People love my work, so it doesn't surprise me that they would admire a t-shirt with my picture on it.
SWG: You seem to have a lot of nicknames associated with you. Everyone knows why people have been calling you the new hotness, but where did Wuby come from?
WUBY: When I was about 21, I had a serious bed wetting problem. One of my roommates suggested that I start sleeping with a blanket. He even bought me a blanket and named it "WUBY". Turns out that the blanket solved my problem. People have been calling me Wuby ever since.
SWG: Do you ever find that "The New Hotness" naming convention causes confusion. What happens when you come out with a new piece of work. Is it called the new new hotness. Is the previous new hotness now the old new hotness?
WUBY: I am not going to lie, I do have some critics. However, the vast majority of the art loving public, love me.
SWG: Wuby, thank you for your time today..we really appreciate it.
WUBY: My pleasure. Be sure to check out the new "New Hotness" at www.newlywedz.blogspot.com.
