“We don’t even have to talk about the fact that I’m not allowed back in that hotel,” Taika joked. “There’s plenty more hotels. How did you find me in that hotel? I’ve always wondered that. I never told anyone I was going there, but [they] found me at 10 in the morning. Incredible! I love you guys. I didn’t want to leave it, though. I didn’t want to leave — [I’m] a little bit angry.”

Taika continued by joking about the crazy requests that celebs give to their publicists. He said, “You’re very decent to people like us who are very frustrating. I know you know, we’re like, ‘Oh, can I get a plus 18 to that party tonight?’ I get it. I get it, we’re annoying, and you guys are very supportive. You’ll be like, ‘Oh, we’ll see what we can do.’”

“Hollywood is already is just a city full of immature idiots, and you guys are a bunch of very hardworking patient parents. We all love you. I do need to talk to you about this party I want to get into this weekend. It’s got a good gift bag,” he added.

Taika and girlfriend Rita Ora coupled up at a fashion show recently!
