What the hell is going on here? That may be the main question on your mind as you watch this Marc Jacobs video, in which the brand's president, Robert Duffy, announces something about a photo truck being outside its Bleecker Street store on weekends this month—but instead of just saying it, Duffy is lip-syncing some other guy saying it (and the other guy seems to have a mild stutter). The effect is not unlike the uncanny valley, as Duffy seems quite nonhuman. As weird as it is, though, it's undeniably compelling—sort of amazing, in a way. Just, you know, show up to the event at your own risk. Via Fashionista, which points out that Duffy has done some weird stuff in company videos before.
