Kenny G.
CharacterKenny G. is a minor antagonist in Stardust Crusaders and one of DIO's underlings. When the Joestar group pushes into DIO's mansion, he warps the interior into a bewildering maze, though he is dealt with well before he can cause any lasting damage.
Appearance
Kenny G. is a squat, stocky figure whose sharp ears jut out prominently, set above a small nose and narrow eyes but paired with an oversized mouth. His clothing runs to a vest that buttons along the sides and carries shoulder pads, worn with dark trousers, dark shoes, gloves, a metallic necklace, and a cone-shaped hat.
Abilities
His Stand, Tenore Sax, weaves illusions. He uses it to box Joseph Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, and Noriaki Kakyoin in together with Telence T. D'Arby, splitting them off from their allies so that Vanilla Ice could strike. He then floods the mansion with false staircases and passages, making the layout appear far larger and more tangled than it truly is.

History
Kenny G. is first shown getting ready to take on the Joestars alongside Vanilla Ice and Telence T. D'Arby. When Nukesaku offers to pitch in, the group warns him off, threatening to kill him should he meddle in their fight. Working to back up Telence, Kenny then springs his illusion trap and hides himself deep inside the maze he has made.
His deception does not last. Muhammad Avdol quickly pinpoints his hiding spot using one of Magician's Red's abilities, and Iggy sends out The Fool to take him out before he can do any harm at all.
