I can't believe Southwest folded under pressure from this whiney B-list celebrity director.
The guy is just plain fat. No matter how baggy his clothes are, or what kinds of tricky photography he wants to use, I would not want his lard to spill over into my seat during a 3-hour flight.
Go to Google Image search. You'll see that 90% of his photos are shot from the chest-up. The rest are of him in extremely baggy clothes. He has got to be pushing 300lbs at least.
I don't care if the armrest can be lowered, his flab and thunder thighs would still be intruding into my personal space that I paid for.
In an emergency evacuation, I would not want him to be my seat neighbor and block me from escaping the burning cabin.
Southwest, your current policies regarding overweight passengers make sense and are just. Please realize that the majority of your customers support your efforts into making overweight passengers purchase two seats. Rest assured that we will continue to give you business.
