Jacobs says he no longer views being single as a curse. "I mean, I like to have sex, and I like to go out on dates, even dates that don't work out. But I don't feel the need to be with one person all the time. it doesn't feel like before. It's not going to complete me or anything." Here, the downstairs guest room, with Richard Prince’s Richard and Linda, 2005.
