Jemaine's Style of Dress
According to IMDB.com, Jemaine has likened his style of dress to that of an "ogre who works in a library."
I totally disagree on the ogre analogy. I think he's absolutely retro-fabulous. Jemaine has a great sense of style. When asked about where he finds such interesting apparel, he's stated that he likes to browse in second-hand shops.
Jemaine's Good With Clay
Not like beautiful ceramics though - Claymation. He's teamed up with Guy Capper to make several claymation film shorts.
