"I found on the internet this guy that had that haircut and rimless glasses and I superimposed it on a photograph [of me] and I sent it to [director] Fred Durst, and he fell in love with the look," Travolta explained. "Then we added the Hawaiian shirt and the shorts and it just came together, [as] kismet, you know?"
