Last week was a week where I met so many great people: Candace Bushnell, makeup artist and TV host Paul Venoit and gossip girl Elaine Lui (aka Lainey Gossip).
I had interviewed Elaine for two different posts and a third one for my Yahoo! Site.
I find meeting people in person after seeing them for so long on TV always very fascinating because you either like them or hate them.
Lainey was the MC for a Cover Girl makeup event and after her presentation, I was able to sit down with her along with a number of other Beauty Bloggers to chat and dish out on some of the juicy gossip she spills out on her site.
The best part of the evening was discovering that Elaine was quite normal and very down to earth. I love how she describes herself: “I’m not a celebrity or a star; I just write about them and sometimes interview them … I don’t take myself too seriously”.
In an era of want-to-be stars who have absolutely no credentials whatsoever (think of the cast of The Hills, Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchie and the Kardashians), it was such a change to hear Lainey describe herself with such humble words.

If you didn’t get a chance to read my interviews with Elaine Lui (aka Lainey Gossip), you can still catch them:
