"Jack Black shared that he was unaware of who his musical counterpart would be for the SNL episode until he received a call from Jack White. Black recalled, 'He was like, 'What do you think, should we do this SNL thing?' I was like, 'What are you talking about?' And he was like, 'Wait, they didn't tell you?' I was like, 'No, you're going to be the musical guest?'"
"Black expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, 'I've always secretly wanted to party with Jack White. We're opposite sides of the Jack spectrum. It's a no-brainer, but we've never had the opportunity. We're finally going to mix it up and see what happens.'"
"Regarding the branding of their collaboration, Black humorously requested to drop the 'Jack Gray' name, saying, 'I'm not crazy about that because gray kind of has a negative connotation. It's a gray area - you don't really know what it is. I'd rather it was like Jack Silver or Jack Zebra or Jack Stripes.'"
