* I would have a shoe room, lined with shelf after shelf of beautiful designer shoes in every color of the rainbow. Especially these:
(Sorry, where was I? I fell into a Christian Louboutin dream state…)
* I would have a personal trainer who would assure me every day that I was stunning, while at the same time kicking my ass. Said trainer would also look exactly like Jake Gyllenhaal in Jarhead.
* My clothes would be a mixture of the finest designers mixed with every day Gap tee shirts. Because I wouldn’t be a snob.
* I would smile for the paparazzi as I struck my signature pose: hand on hip, hips turned and angled slightly forward as so to make me look as long and lean as possible.
* I would step out of cars like a lady and never show anyone my Britney.
* I would actually really donate to charitable organizations.
* I would not carry around kick-me dogs in my purse. Big dogs all the way.
* I would say No Thanks to free drugs, but Yes Please to free swag.
* I would be the next face of Chanel. (What, a girl can dream, can’t she?)
What would you do?

I think I’d be a private celebrity. When I stepped out of my swanky NYC penthouse it would be on my terms that the paparazzi even knew I was home and therefore outside waiting to snap a picture.

I would do a lot of the same things that you listed. I would also die for a personal makeup artist and a huge house that got professionally decorated with lots of input from me. Also, I’m with you on the big dogs all the way thing, and I love that you referenced your Britney.

First, cracking UP at the “wouldn’t show my Britney”.
I would also have a personal trainer, especially a bridal trainer, and a cook, Oprah style. I would travel travel travel. Also have fabulous shoes, and great outfits that wouldn’t have to be designer, just look really great on me.
I would become a huge supporter of Habitat for Humanity and swing a hammer as much as possible and I would winter in Austraila, on the bay.

I am drooling over those shoes. The way most people would, I don’t know, drool over a pizza.
I would TOTALLY have a cook. I wouldn’t have to think about meals, they would just materialize in front of me and they would taste great but have minimal calories.
Sigh.

Wow a celebrity! I would try and live simply but i would have really cool toys to pay with….not in the show off way but I would enjoy life without worry. Hell yeah! cook, trainer, and someone to clean the house and all these clothes!!! Buy an island!

I love those shoes!

I agree with the trainer and not showing your Britney and the big dogs thing.
Also, I would be more Angilina (minus the home wrecking part) than Paris.

I would never, never stop shopping.

* give ZETA an endowment so they would never have to worry about money
* set my parents/brothers/neices/nephews up for life
* not necessarily have a huge house, but the best possible medium size house (medium sized mansion?)
* fight back to the over-critical media when they criticized my definitely not super skinny (or skinny at all) frame, assuming that I could become famous while looking like this…(please forgive the self hatred, here. It’s a rainy friday before my period and I have had no coffee yet.)

I’d have a personal trainer, a cook, and a team of stylists to make my hair and face look amazing everyday.
I love that Vegas episode of the Hills when Lauren says to Brody, “I just saw Lo’s Britney.” And then she makes out with Frankie! (Lo, not Lauren :P)

oooh Jake in Jarhead? NICE one. Did you see him on Ellen a couple days ago? He actually seems more cutesy shy boy than I ever imagined!
I would have a chef who cooks me healthy deliciousness, and a personal trainer, and my own lane at the swimming pool. Also I would have nice hair. I’d hire Jessica’s man.

I would (ignore her birth certificate and) date Blake Lively.
I would become so Chris Martin-preachy about a cause that I would face some backlash.
I would have a plasma screen TV in my shower.
I would hang out with Axl Rose and make sure that he finally finished Chinese Democracy.

If I were a celebrity? Eh, no interest in being a celebrity unless I’m famous because I’m such a good lawyer, or I’ve changed the world or something.
But is it okay that I don’t leave an uber long comment here, and just update my blog with it?

frothing at the mouth over those shoes. i’m unable to answer your question, because i am in a dreamlike induced state by a wall of christian louboutins.
so instead, i will wish you a happy weekend.

Personal chef. All organic, delicious, lovely and would keep me fit, healthy and slim. Even my junk food would be all top shelf, like the hand-fashioned gray-salt sprinkled caramels my foodie friend just brought me, YUM.
I’d bring in Jillian from the Biggest Loser to kick my ass every once in a while.
Multiple homes, so I would only have to experience cold weather on MY TERMS only. But they would all be built with natural materials, green construction and they would be groundbreaking in their energy efficiency.
Pools and hot tube=celebrity life for me
Million-count sheets (LOVE LUXURIOUS LINENS!)
I’d be such a down-to-earth celeb I would still introduce myself to people, even though they would say, I KNOW YOU’RE ANNA, DUH!
I’d drive a hybrid, and be another green celeb.
I would be known for my philanthropy. And my FABULOUS wardrobe. My kids would also be known for their fab wardrobe. Is that too shallow for words?

I know that there are a lot of things I would love to do with the money but I really could not handle being a celebrity. I need to be anonymous and that just can’t happen when you’re a star.

Shoe room for sure. Also, I would own about five pugs. Not to carry around, but oh man to surround myself with so many pugs would pretty much make me the happiest lady on earth.
Also, a nice penthouse apartment with a rooftop pool so I could swim a lot. Love it.

Yesterday, while auditioning a girl, she bent over and I totally saw her Britney. LIKE BARE BRITNEY. I was peeing in my pants and then decided to tell everyone in the office. If I were a celebrity I would buy you 21 pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes and send them to you like Jessica Seinfeld did for Oprah.

I think I’d be big into real estate. You know, a big cabin in the mountains of Colorado for skiing every winter, a beach house somewhere in the Carribean to spend the summers, a penthouse in NYC for when I need a little bit of the city, a mansion in London and maybe even a big ranch in Texas just because. Also, I’d totally have a closet that deserved its own zip code.

Oh my there are so many things I would want to do if I were a celebrity.
I would open a monogrammed gift shop and a lilly pullitzer signature shop in every
city that didn’t have one.
1- so I could always shop at my favorite places on a whim and 2- so that everyone else in the world could be blessed with wearing pink and green and navy! ( not just shopping at Walmart because that’s the only store in town)
I would also purchase everything in a lilly store everytime they got something new and add it to much very very large closet. I’d want to build a house with a closet as big as the bahamas haha! I’m dreaming big!
October 19, 2007 at 2:45 pm

yeah. Those shoes. I have them. in just plain black patent. tjey’re pretty much the most awesome purchase ever.
October 19, 2007 at 2:55 pm

Good call on the “kick me dogs!” Hilarious! Instead, I would take my boxer named Alabama with me shopping. All. The. Time. When you’re a celebrity, rules don’t apply.

I’d go on Oprah to squash rumors of a break up between me and my honey, then she’d invite me over for a girls weekend with Jennifer Anistion and all my real life friends while my husband takes a manly golf outing! We’d stay up all night talking. Oprah would curse me because my dog doesn’t get along with other dogs, but I’d tell her I don’t care because she is precious anyway, and Oprah would be okay with that because she’s a dog lover herself. After the fun filled girls weekend, I’d have to get back the set of very important movie I’m working on…..
Hehehe!

I’d be like Martha and lug a 1D Mark II around. Sigh.

I’d become the spokesperson for a certain nonprofit. But with one condition… All the mean people would have to be fired. Oh yeah, and as a generous donor / spokesperson, I’d have spa services installed onsite for all the nice people.
October 19, 2007 at 6:22 pm
Chelle
Maybe spa services isn’t Hollywood enough… New cars and 100k bonuses for the nice people as well?
Why not?

mmm…i’d have a cook too!!! ooh and a masseuse. and a sunglasses/shoe/purse closet as well! ahhh the possibilities. if only!

Awww, damn. I cannot stop staring at those shoes. They’re beautiful, gorgeous, sexy, and perfect in every way.

What fun!
I would buy a 141 acre tract for sale near my current home, build a modest but very, very well appointed house, and install an airstrip for my plane, so that I could fly myself and assorted other folks in and out at a whim.
I would set up sanctuaries for domestic animals- cats and dogs- so that, at least in this country, not. another. one. would. die.
My closet would not have designer clothes in it, so much as well made, comfortable clothes. Like, cashmere sweaters in 42 colors.
I would hire an old Swedish woman to cook and clean for us, as well as- massages.
Also, um, no Britney flashing. The paparazzi would call me the Holy Grail, it would be so hard to get pics.

I wouldn’t really go for a swanky designer-filled closet, I’m more of a J.Crew girl anyway. I’d also have about six dogs. And an amazing pair of camel colored boots (any suggestions?).
I’d probably have a love/hate relationship with all of the attention. I mean, we all have our good days and bad days, but I tend to have more of the bad than good. And who wants a camera all up in your face when you’ve got a pimple?
But then again, I’d be able to have a spa/facialist to take care of that bizz.

I am so with you n a shoe room. As it is I have a huge walk in closet with shoes abound - they are boxed, numbered and computer categorized by style , ,color and designer. I know I have way to much time on my hands..also..I am with you on the big dogs - yay!
October 21, 2007 at 9:54 pm

I would buy an island. And give lots of money to animal charities

there would be many things i would hope i would do if i had public power and money, (you know; donate, help others, solve world problems, give world leaders a serious talkin’ to)
and THEN:
i would travel the world, i want to so badly, i want to see every inch, i want to fill my passport so full that i have to replace it more often than the 10 year experation.
(oh and a shoe closet wouldn’t suck)
