A friend of mine recently told me the first thought that comes to his mind when someone mentions sunglasses is Jack Nicholson.<\/p>\n
I was confused for a moment, but then I started recollecting. He was right: I couldn\u2019t think of any public occasion, no matter how trivial, where Jack didn\u2019t wear a pair of shades.<\/p>\n
But why does he wear sunglasses all the time? \u00a0Apparently, it was at a 1970s Academy Awards ceremony when the late Fred Astaire convinced John that wearing sunglasses indoor was super-cool.<\/p>\n
Ever since then, he grew particularly fond of these accessories and admits that he even has too many of them:<\/p>\n
I was sitting next to Fred Astaire at the 1976 Oscars and we were having a few laughs. They announced his category and he didn’t win and that minute he put on his sunglasses. I don’t even think I had a thought, I just reached for the glasses. And that’s why. I wear all kinds. I have too many sunglasses.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Even while filming, he often managed to incorporate them into his outfits and make them an important feature of his characters.<\/p>\n
