“Hey guys it’s KZ here at Target… no seriously.. I’m at Target!”
That was the joke last night at the Bulls-eye Bonanza event at a pop-up Target in downtown Chicago.
Basically, Target comes to an area that doesn’t have a store, puts up a mini-Target and invites a few celebs to join in.
Ed Westwick, Jessica Szohr (aka Chuck Bass and Vanessa from Gossip Girl) and Kate Walsh (Grey’s, Private Practice) were in the random mix of celebs there to do interviews.
Random as it was, I was SUPER pumped. I’ve interviewed Kate before, and she is very sweet and easy to talk with. And I am mildly obsessed with Gossip Girl.
Kate was the first celeb to arrive and she looked smoking hot. She had on a gold Stella McCartney skirt, a black jacket and patent black strappy heels. The thing that jumps out at me about Kate is her perfect, glowing skin. Flawless. She was super nice and told me she keeps in shape with a lot of Pilates and hiking.
Then Ed arrived. OMFG. I was a Chace Crawford fan until last night. Ed has this strong gaze and when he looks in your direction- you feel paralyzed! I’ve met lots of dreamy male celebs (Clooney, Patrick Dempsey, Paul Walker) but none have made me blush like Mr. Chuck Bass. Adding to his appeal? His British accent. I asked Ed to do his best impression of his roommate Chace… and hearing him switch from a British to an American accent is adorable!
Just as I was falling in love, his co-star and off-screen girlfriend, Jessica Szohr, walked up to do press. Wow. What a hot couple. My co-worker Jennifer’s jaw dropped! “Vanessa” is TINY and has these glowing green eyes. She admitted that while she stays slim by eating healthy during the week.. she does enjoy pizza and French fries and ranch dressing on the weekends.
These three awesome celebs made my night a breeze and reminded me how much fun “work” can be.
