Alexa Chung Isn't Like Oprah
Alexa Chung, the host of MTV's Its On With Alexa Chung, sat down with V Magazine for their upcoming issue and chatted very candidly about her new life in America, her show, and her connection to Ian Somerhalder!
Alexa moved to New York from London to head up the show, which is MTV's "replacement" for TRL. She's asked how she's adjusting to life in the Big Apple:
AC It’s really nice, but I think my apartment is too shiny. I just found out that [the actor] Ian Somerhalder used to live in it.
Lucky girl! It would've been even better if he had just moved next door, right?
You would think that with all of the people she meets and interviews each day, that she'd have no problem making a lot of friends. But she says that's not quite the case:
AC I don’t really have any friends in America.
AC Well, I have some friends. ..... I just don’t tolerate douche bags. You get them in England too, those people who just sort of hang out and hold coats or something. But there’s more of them here.
Alexa thinks she might stay in America, even after the show is over.
DB Will you go back to England when this MTV gig is done?
AC I don’t know. I went to a wedding last weekend [in England] and when I got back here I was quite relieved to be home in New York. Whoa, I guess that’s the first time I actually said that and meant it "Home In New York".
Sounds like she is liking it here. Many times you hear celebrities who hail from England say that they can't wait to get back home because it's a little less "celebrity crazy" over there.
Alexa says she likes to meet her guests for a quick minute before the show starts. The interviewer tells her that Oprah never greets guests before her shows. lol
Alexa Chung's Beauty Staples
Alexa Chung has a style all her own--the self-proclaimed tomboy says:
I hate dressing up. I never feel like me."
But the funky MTV host still knows what works!:
I believe in dressing to suit your shape. I don't have cleavage, so I flash my long legs instead."
...And don't forget the green nails! Here are her beauty picks:
Essie Nail Lacquer in Greenport ($8 at Amazon)
Chanel Rouge Allure Lipstick in Naive ($30 at Bloomingdale's)
Chanel Quadra Eye Shadow in Mystic Eyes ($56 at Bloomingdale's)
She's also a fam of the new Shu Uemura Tasai Styling Cream--read all about it here!
