“There was definitely a good chemistry between Hailee, [director] Emil [Nava] and myself. We really wanted to tell the story behind this song because it’s relatable to so many people,” he said in an interview withJust Jared.
“Before our first scene I somehow ended up in charge of driving our vintage truck prop offroad, with her in the passenger seat and the whole crew in the cab,” Fenison added. “After getting to the top of the hills we shot a scene with the sun setting, and it was great to see her vision for this song come to life. Hailee seems to stay true to who she is even with all her success, and it was fun working on this project with her.”
TheRidiculousnessco-host continued, “Never felt a love like this before. She’s the best thing that ever [happened] to me.” She also saluted Fenison “for giving me the greatest gift in the world and being such an amazing dad already. Love you both soooo much.”
“Her dad and I loved the idea of a unisex name. We also wanted it to be unique,” West Coast told PEOPLE. “The David Bowie song ‘Modern Love’ came on, which is a song and artist I personally love, and I saw the name Bowie and said ‘That’s it, babe! Bowie should be her name,’ and my boyfriend Dom loved it and we decided to go with that.”
She added: “Plus, we had already picked out a middle name we were set on, which was Breeze, and we thought Bowie Breeze flowed so well together.”
