Three Questions With Chrissy Teigen

 

Chrissy Teigen is one of those people you truly want to be best friends with…or at least, I do.  If you’re not already following her on Twitter, you should be, cause let me tell you- she is hilarious.  And with that said, it was no surprise that we had literally the funniest interview ever and it was truly hard narrowing it down to only three questions!

Q: What advice would you give your 22-year-old self?

A: Don’t be so worried…at 22 I felt so lost. What am I gonna do with my career? Am I gonna have a career? I never just stopped and took the moments in, so I would tell myself not to be so worried.

Q: What made you decide to partner with Gillette Venus?

A: They’re just such a wonderful company; honestly, it’s great to see a company being so interactive with women. I’m a girl’s girl.  It’s cool to be with a brand that really appreciates and empowers women- I love it.  We’ve partnered up with Step Up Women’s Network and we’ve done this thing called “Step Up and Step Out” and for every step taken on our blue carpet, Gillette Venus donated $1 to Step Up Women’s Network.  It’s great seeing how quickly something good can be done, via social media, with just a hash tag (#StepUp).

Q: Speaking of social media (Chrissy’s tweets are infamous), what was the one tweet that everyone just freaked out over?

A: Oh, so many come to mind. I’ll say anything tweeting from award shows…some people have some hard-core fans.  So never upset…the fans. (lots of laughter after this) To note, Chrissy is a self-proclaimed member of “the bey-hive,” which is apparently Beyonce fans.

Chrissy’s favorite products:

1. Venus and Olay Razor: “It smells like crème brule!”

2. Tatcha Original Aburatorigami face blotting papers: The model uses these when it’s hot and humid in New York City and mentioned that they have gold flakes in them.

3. Batiste Dry Shampoo: Chrissy picks up this brand of dry shampoo at Ricky’s!

Three Questions With Alanis Morissette

Alanis Kiehls

My words can’t accurately describe the feeling you get when you interview one of your all-time favorite musicians…it’s really just astounding, for lack of a better word.  Luckily for me, Kiehl’s hosted their yearly Earth Day event at their Santa Monica store and I was given the opportunity to interview non other than Ms. Alanis Morissette.

Kiehl’s Since 1851 celebrated its Limited Edition Ultra Facial Cream, to benefit Recycle Across America, with its partners Alanis Morissette and Zachary Quinto, each who designed a limited edition label for the product.  100% of the proceeds of this Limited Edition Collection will benefit Recycle Across America–$50,000 will be used to create 65,000 recycling labels for  select K-12 schools nationwide.  So get it now.

Q: What made you decide to partner with Kiehl’s on this initiative?

A: I think standardized labeling is important…so people know where to put what and regardless of past efforts and goodwill, there’s been a lack of clarity that this organization will help with.

Q: What’s your favorite song on “Jagged Little Pill” (one of the best albums ever)?

A: I can’t really pick a favorite, but I’d say that I think “Mary Jane” was the most meaningful for me since it’s so emotional.

Q: What’s the best part about marriage and what’s the worst part?

A: The best part is that I actually have a friend and we’re helping each other out…the worst part…I don’t really have a worst part right now.  You know marriage is challenging, marriage is not for the weak of heart, but I don’t really have a worst part.

And, of course, here’s my obligatory photo with Alanis…had to, sorry.
