According to the barber, while he was working on his hair, the actor was so eager to see the final result of his haircut before he began recommending the barber's services to his influential circle of friends.
Clocutz said:
"Angel. Alex meant so much to me. He was so effortlessly selfless and fun to be around with. You see me smiling all out yeah?, That’s how genuine and jovial to me, never experienced this intentional connection with some other high profile person I’ve worked with. He couldn’t just wait for me to finish working on him to see if I am good or not, he already started making calls and introducing me to his circle of friends. What a good and generous man you were! Rest peacefully Sir. Your legacy lives on and up forever. Shine brightest!!!!"
