Bryanboy's "A-HA" Moment #16,309: Alex Perry
Bryanboy's "A-HA" Moment #16,309: Alex Perry
About an hour before the Alex Perry show started, one of the super nice PR ladies asked me if I want red carpet access to take photos and get quotes from celebrities. In case you don't know, Alex Perry's show is the ultimate celebrity magnet during Australian Fashion Week.
I politely said no because I honestly have NO idea who Australian celebrities are other than the usual Hollywood suspects Nicole, Cate, Gemma, etc. From what I felt outside the tents, it seems to me that a lot of "presenters" are celebs in Australia -- children's show presenters, tv presenters, radio presenters, blah blah blah so on and so forth. There I was wondering if there are any, you know, local heartthrobs or whether or not there's an Aussie version of The Hills, Gossip Girl or what have you.
I thought I'd smoke a few cigarettes outside instead of waiting in the front row for the show the start. By the time I finished my cigarettes, the red carpet bonanza is still going strong. I don't want to be a nuisance to celebs getting their photos taken so I stood on the side. My friend Bex pointed out some Australian "celebrity" I've never seen/heard of and I was like... wow. It went on like that for a few minutes... one big, bountiful, blond bombshell after another. And then for some reason I blurted...
Me: "OH MY GOD AUSTRALIAN CELEBS LOOK LIKE PORN STARS!"
outta nowhere. One of the security guys, a PR lady, a few photographers and several people on the queue gave me THAT funky look so I said...
Me: "OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE I SAID THAT!"
as a cheap attempt to rescue me from my little booboo.
Australia's Next Top Model host Jodhi Meares who I **LOVE** (pictured above) then popped by so I went straight up to her. We chatted very briefly (something about my Chanel bag) and then I asked her for a photo. Jodhi saves the day!
hi bryanboy,
a lot of aust 'celebrities' are quite dodgy, fake tanned, blonde and dress badly! search for pics of fashion at the logies (australian TV awards) if you want a laugh. its annoying when the gossip mags here have pics of them instead of real overseas celebrities, or cool ones like our models and good actresses!
i've been reading this blog lately, by the OLDEST BLOGGER IN THE WORLD!! she's 108 years and australian, although she doesnt actually type it, but its really nice and funny, and u should watch the videos of her singing!
