Maezawa explained why he's no longer taking just artists.
"Two years ago, I said I would like to invite artists from around the world to come along with me. That was the initial plan, but it has since evolved," Maezawa said in the video.
"I began to wonder, who do I mean by artists? A singer? A dancer? A writer? The more I thought about it, the more ambiguous it became. And I began to think that maybe every single person who is doing something creative could be called an artist," he said.
"That is why I wanted to reach out to a wider, more diverse audience to give more people around the world the opportunity to join this journey. If you see yourself as an artist, then you're an artist," he added.
