I think that in the egalitarian proposition the more talented people, I think it's very optimistic to think that they would—would still work really hard, even if they knew that part of what they made would be given away.
I get to work with phenomenally talented people, and to see how they negotiate the day everyday, how they get around obstacles, how they continue to say yes, when everyone is telling them no, that's an amazing thing.
So now, speaking of controversy, it gives me great pleasure to introduce two incredibly talented artists, who have risen above the noise, the doubt, the critics.
