Pharrell Williams never expected to become the men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton.
It was announced in February that Williams was taking on the role after Virgil Abloh passed away on November 28, 2021.
In a new interview with GQ’s September Hype issue, Williams explained that the job offer came out of the blue while he was at his studio in Miami Beach last December.
Recalling how he heard from Louis Vuitton CEO Pietro Beccari, the hitmaker shared, “It wasn’t an interview or anything.
“It was like, ‘Will you accept this position? Will you accept this appointment?’ I’m looking at the water and I’m just like, ‘What?’”
The singer insisted, “I never thought that it would be me,” with him expecting the choice to be Nigo, his longtime friend and collaborator who currently heads Lvmh brand, Kenzo.
