This week Salon spoke with director Paul H-O, “an unsuccessful artist turned cable TV host [who snagged] an interview with one of the world's most reclusive and glamorous art stars, Cindy Sherman”…and then the two fell head-over-heels in love. Paul H-O appears to have struggled mightily with the fact that he was the lesser-known, (perhaps in his mind, less-powerful) of the two. In fact, he even refers to himself as “the wife.” They eventually broke up, and he eventually made a documentary about her. “Guest of Cindy Sherman” ain’t no Forgetting Sarah Marshall. An interview with Paul H-O is above, and you can read more at Salon.
Anyone else out there dating a (more) famous person? Anyone else wish they had more context for the whole “wife” comment?
