Jack Nicholson

But why does he wear sunglasses all the time?  Apparently, it was at a 1970s Academy Awards ceremony when the late Fred Astaire convinced John that wearing sunglasses indoor was super-cool.
Ever since then, he grew particularly fond of these accessories and admits that he even has too many of them:
"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.”
Even while filming, he often managed to incorporate them his outfits and make them an important feature of his characters.
