Vlog Teen Idol Interview Secrets Revealed

My Best & Worst Interviews As A Teen Magazine Reporter



Most of your questions from Ask Me Questions Vlog were about my teen reporting days. I've summed it up here as best I could and as quickly as I could. Sorry it ran a bit long. My husband also interrupted me a few times.

To the blog buddy who once said I look cuter with my hair down instead of up, I'm sorry. I recorded this over the weekend and it was about 90 degrees here in New Jersey.

OK, hope you like it :-) Feel free to provide other questions or topics in the comment area.

Love you guys!







Here are images of several of the celebs from the anecdotes mentioned.
Josh Hartnett



98 Degrees: Drew & Nick Lachey


Mandy Moore

Josh Hartnett is on my "list" if you know what I mean. SOOO hot. Thanks for the insight into some celebs.

Copyboy said...

Awesome video. Love the inside scoop on the teen heart throbs. Kinda bummed to hear that the mmmbop boys were kinda on the douchey side. BTW...you must give us all a full run down as to what your husband was doing in the background. Is he doing all the behind the scenes production stuff? Haha. Seriously great vlog. Lookin' cute! ;)

Bossy Betty said...

I would have told you the color of my car. Love your husband in the background, wanting to watch TV!!

Ally said...

Hagler - so cute, right?

Copyboy "blogger buddy" - wink. wink. as for hubs, he was in the fridge forever and I think began eating an ice pop with the fridge AND freezer open???

Betty - he wasn't even trying to watch TV, he wanted to play Super Mario for the 100th time that day.

Sara Louise said...

You are too cute!
"Nobody is going to stalk your stupid car!" had me in stitches. And Josh Hotnett! Be still my beating heart!!!

Ms. A said...

Hartnett... in "Heaven on Earth!" Loved it!

Cheeseboy said...

What happened to Mandy Moore? She seemed to be on the brink of greatness. I always thought she was cute, but I have not heard a thing about her in years.

Great vlog.

That was fun. I do admit, I was equally entertained by your husband in the background.

Jerry said...

As much as I liked watching you and listening to what you were saying I had to keep watching the husband in the background. LOL

ScoMan said...

I didn't know who Josh Harnett was but I know the others.

Becuase I'm still realatively new here I didn't know about your celeb meetings. Quite a list you've got there.

And there's a bit of a variety too.. from Hanson and their cockspankishness (which doesn't surprise me) to Nick Carter at the other end.. and Josh Harnett and Mandy Moore sounded pretty cool too.

Loved the vlog.

Kitty Moore said...

OMG - Can't believe Hanson were so rude - nothing like their 'wholesome' image. And Josh Hartnett is lovely - saw him in theatre a couple of years ago in Rain Man.

Anonymous said...

Arghhh I can't believe Hansen - I thought they always looked soooo sweet - Right, that's it, I'm throwing their CD's away ;0)

Powdered Toast Man said...

Goin after 16 year old Nick Carter, u pedophile...lol

I think Mandy Moore is really cute.

I was waiting for your hubby to come over so I could see what he looks like.

Melissa said...

I had a crush on Josh Hartnett. He is a cutie!

Anonymous said...

That was so much fun to watch!!! I think your cat was running back and forth in the background too, haha. I love hearing what they were really like...bummer that JT is like that. I never liked him in 'Nsync or however that's spelled, but later on. I really liked Drew Lachey after he was on DWTS (lol).

Marlene said...

Laughing at the Hanson car comment...heehee!! Is that a kitty I saw in the background?

liz said...

Your story about seeing the photo of Josh Hartnett after speaking to him, made me laugh. And I love how your husband is just going about his business, checking out the fridge, etc., while we are watching your vlog!

Unknown said...

Great Video. I enjoyed it. The parts your husband played were hilarious!
You should convince him to make a Vlog too...:)
I like Mandy Moore. The "Only Hope" was just beautiful!

Have a good day...:)

Alison said...

"Dude, get over yourself. You're the ugliest brother..."
Hahahahaah. So, so, so true.
Huge Hanson fan that I am (err...was...) I'm heartbroken that they weren't adorable and sweet. It makes me feel better that my marriage to Zach didn't work out.

And Josh Hartnett? Let me just say--Yum.

Joann Mannix said...

Ally, I love the celebrity scoop you hand out. Love it! I, too, was brokenhearted when Nick and Jessica broke up. They were so freakin cute together. And then that Behind The Music on Nick where he talked about losing her. Ohhh, I just love that guy. He seems so sweet. Bad Jessica.

Keep the vlogs coming. They are great.

And my hubs would have been watching tv, too.

Riot Kitty said...

Hee hee! Love it!

California Keys said...

I LOOOOOOOOOOVE Mandy Moore! I used to watch Chasing Liberty (I know it's lame) all the time on HBO.... She's the President's daughter! She just wants a normal life!

Oooooh.... Julia Stiles too.... Did you ever interview her? My brother always thought she was man-ish.... I didn't care.... I thought she was hot.... Anyway.... She was in O with Hartnett....

How about any of the 'Boy Meets World' cast? Did you get to interview them?

Maggi said...

How cool! I was sad too when Nick and Jessica broke up, still think they should be together. LOL Great video, loved hearing more about the teen idols!

Samantha said...

Great vlog! I love your hubby in the refrigerator! Haha...made me giggle :)

Josh Hartnett is hot!

Ally said...

Boy Meets World, for some reason I never got in on that action. I think by the time I got to the mags it was just all about music really. Boy bands were selling mags off the shelves! I will say this, Rider Strong, total d-bag. While at Disney for the press events around the opening of Magic Kingdom, we ran into Rider and some other B-list ABC celebs and he actually went to the a Disney PR person asking to keep us away from him. We had no desire to even take one photo of that jerk. He was already too old and unattractive at that point and none of our readers gave a crap about him. I wanted to kick his butt for being so rude when we were the ones who helped launch his career in the first place. All those kids get that way, they want to avoid us once we helped them find their way into fan's hearts.

Macey said...

Josh Hartnett is at the top of my "to do" list. Wink wink.
LOVE HIM...oh, that scene in Pearl Harbor where he and Kate Beckinsale get it on in the hangers....ahhh...that thing just thinking about it makes me...ok. I'll stop.
Anyway.
Nick from 98 Degrees, he always seemed so down to earth. Like if I met him I could just burp and do whatever. LOL
YOU ARE SO CUTE!!!!!! Hilarious, the convo going on with you and your guy. LOL

Macey said...

OH yeah, also, you are SO right. The oldest IS the ugliest Hanson brother. Heh.

Caroline said...

I was watching your vlog last night after the kids were in bed and couldn't stop laughing!! I was such a nerd during my younger years! It sounds like you had a blast as a teen reporter! I always thought Josh Hartnett was a cutie pie but I didn't know who he was until Pearl Harbor, I think.
Good memories! It's awesome you have kept a diary for so long (read that in your "about me"). You should consider compiling all the stories and writing a Memoir!
:)

Tracie said...

The media always played the Hansons off as being so sweet and nice. I knew it was too good to be true. I suspected that Mandy Moore was nice IRL.

Babes Mami said...

I watched it all! Not gone here, just late! I remember when nsync and backstreet boys and 98 degrees were popular because I was like 15 or 16 but I was doing the rock chick thing so I wasn't into them.

Lol @Hagler Happenings 'on my "list"'...I too have a list!

Mom Mayhem says: said...

Cathing up on your blog today -Love the latest Vlog! Your husband is funny in the background -But, hey we are watching! ;)

Michelle Pixie said...

Can I just tell you how much I adore you! This had me giggling the whole way through. The banter between you and your hubby was priceless!

PS. Thanks for keeping my little one in your prayers. It means the world to me! XOXO

California Keys said...

That's what I figured about Rider.... He never held a candle to Will Friedle! I wish Will would do more acting..... He's doing all this voiceover stuff for animation....

And I will always be in love with Topanga! And who didn't love Feeny! Oooooh, and Mr. Turner!

Boy Meets World could be the best show ever.... lol
