Vogue Parody 73 questions

73 questions was started by Vogue in 2014, offering their readers a look into the lives of celebrities in a fun and easy way. Since then, bloggers all over the globe have taken this question and answer game and put their own spin on it. This has become the Vogue Parody – 73 Questions.

I first saw this on Louise’s blog and thought it was such a cool concept! I wasn’t tagged to do it so if you want to do this too then *tag* you’re it.

Now for the q’s!

Vogue Parody – Questions 1-10

What’s your usual Starbucks order?

I’m very boring and typically go for an English Breakfast Tea. However, in the hotter days, I do enjoy a vanilla frappe.

What does your work station look like?

At work it’s a lot less cluttered because we’ve just moved into our new floor so I haven’t had enough time to clutter it yet. At home, it’s either my bed or my kitchen table.

Favourite food?

I would happily live off chicken nuggets, pasta and hash browns.

Favourite author?

Holly Bourne. I’m yet to read a bad book by her.

What do you think of open relationships?

In the words of my friend Lucy – ‘you do you, boo boo’. As long as there’s respect, consent and honesty then why not?

What is your favourite video game?

I really struggle to keep up with video games because I get bored quite easily.

Guilty pleasure treat?

Ready salted Pringles and fudge. Although fudge makes me feel awful when I have a lot at once.

Laptop!

Best advice you’ve ever received?

I think Taylor Swift said it best – “you gotta step into the daylight and let it go.”

What project are you working on right now?

The blog! I found it so hard to become motivated to post anything other than shows I agreed to review because I lost all confidence in it. I’m not even sure what triggered it! I’ve also tried writing a play but wow it’s HARD. I started writing it towards the end of my last job because I was bored and I got about nine scenes in before the characters decided they didn’t want to do what I wanted them to.

Favourite colour?

I love any shade of blue!

Did you get good grades in school?

Kind of? I did alright I guess, they got me into college and allowed me to get my apprenticeship but I didn’t want to go to university so I wasn’t completely stressed about the rest of my results.

Dream job?

I’m already doing it! I’m currently in a media advertising job in the entertainment industry. I should probably find something else to aspire to.

Play any sports?

It takes a lot for me to cry from happiness but when Marianne Elliott shouted out me and Blandine on the WhatsOnStage live stream, I was rendered speechless. Absolutely didn’t not expect it.

What’s the best surprise you’ve ever given?

I have two answers for this:.

  • Turning up to the stage door of Pretty Woman to tell Samantha my parents and I were there to see the show the next day and the look on her face was priceless because I didn’t tell her we were coming!
  • (YES IT’S COMPANY RELATED) But the time Blandine and I gave Jonathan Bailey, Rosalie Craig and Richard Fleeshman flowers for on the day of their Olivier nominations.
