The Perfect Storm

Muscled Men, Topless Women
Miami doesn't feel like the States. It feels like you're in Latin
America. It's real sexy. The people primarily speak Spanish, and I
just like the vibe. I like that it isn't American and conservative.
I love that going to the beach, women are topless, and it is no big
deal, and everyone is sexy and beautiful. Older men and women,
younger men and women, all shapes and sizes - that's primarily why
I like it. And the Cuban
food is second to none.
Her Shiny, Chrome-Colored Heartthrob
We went to SeaWorld [to shoot some of
Flipper]. It's pretty,
like Disneyland. I never really cared about theme parks, so it was
quite fitting that we went through the back entrance. My brother
would run around and try to go to all the rides, but I didn't care
- even when I was a kid. I just wanted to get in the water with the
animals. I got to swim with a killer whale, which was pretty cool.
I was totally with the dolphins the whole time. They're incredibly
intelligent, way more intelligent than anybody would imagine. Their
bodies are solid muscle. They're really, really, really strong. And
they're really loyal. And they're just sweet. I usually would hug
them too hard. Because you just have a hard time hugging them
softly. That's when I thought,
You know, when I'm older, this is
a great place to retire.
A Sharp Contrast
I stayed at the
Shore Club, mostly. And ate at the restaurant there
[Nobu] constantly, the Japanese-Peruvian one. The Shore Club is an
older hotel that they revamped. Very simple. The floors are all
sandstone, and the beds are all white, and everything's pretty
simple. I like that in
Miami, because it's so hot. It's nice to not
have a lot of clutter.
