A hangover project at its finest: introducing Celebrities in Ramen

So good they named him twice, Josh Josh Jones is the guy responsible for one of the best emails the INT editorial desk has ever had the pleasure of receiving. Not necessarily because it concerns celebrities in ramen, but because in a wonderful antidote to the world of post-rationalised press release guff, his missive states: “There’s really no reason why I’m doing this to be honest.”

There’s not really that much more to his Instagram-based project Celebrities in Ramen than what the title suggests. “I got pretty drunk and came up with an idea two weeks ago and then with the ensuing hangover I decided to actually do it (this is why I have so many projects all the time),” Josh explains. So as it’s nearly Friday, sit back and enjoy the sights of Prince William scuba diving through noodle soup or Harry Styles splashing his way through a delicious oriental broth.
