Once upon a time, celebrities wanted to discuss who they were wearing, and it was my job to talk to them about it.
I would approach Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, Kerry Washington, Cher, Salma Hayek Pinault and other major stars inside intimate industry events in Los Angeles. Over cocktails or dinner, occasionally brunch or lunch, we would chat about dresses, their hair, the party scene and their philanthropic work whenever the event benefited a cause.
This was long before the term “social distancing” invaded our daily vernacular courtesy of the pandemic.
This awards season, which is unlike any other, I’ve found myself reflecting on those brief exchanges with Hollywood’s biggest names, candid moments that live on in my memory and on old recordings some so ancient they were documented on an iPod classic.
