Lopez being interviewed by the Huffington Post!
When I found out I was being interviewed by the Huffington Post about how I have the coolest job in the world working for 8th Continent Soymilk, I was super stoked to see that other people are finding out what I already know! (Not trying to brag or anything…) And then when I found out I was going to be on camera during this interview with the same guy that interviewed Brooke Burke before me I thought… oh man- OK, how’s my hair?
But to be serious- The Huffington Post is no joke. They have 22 million unique users each month and is the most linked-to blog on the internet. Needless to say I was a bit nervous… but the only emotion that overcame my nervousness was the excitement about being placed in a category of one of the “people to watch” by the Huffington Post.
When asked why I love my job so much and why I always seem so happy I put it simply like this- I have always gotten a kick out of social media and how it works. On top of that- I am promoting my favorite beverage that even if I wasn’t employed by them- I would still be singing their praises. It’s a great tasting beverage with so many health benefits and not only that- they have me going out and voicing a way to live happy, healthy, and a life full of adventure.
We all met at Elaine’s in New York, a local hot spot and legendary celeb spotting café. As some of the crew set up lights and tested sound, I chatted with Jeff Rivera- the hottie with a body that looks a little bit like Thai Diggs. (one of the men that would be in my 8th Continent) If you have been following my adventures while out on the road you may notice that when I get nervous- the best way for me to break the ice is to do something mildly inappropriate. So after scanning Elaine’s with my camera I turned it on the interviewer- Jeff Rivera to see if HE was nervous. Check out the behind the scenes footage below.
So what happens during these interviews is first he sits facing me with the camera pointed in my direction and we chit chat- about my job, my adventures, 8th Continent Soymilk and why I’m such a fan; and someone takes notes of each question he asks. Then I move out of the way and he faces an empty chair and asks the same questions over again with the camera focusing on him so they can get his shots. I never knew that’s how they do it! So I sat there on the sidelines and giggled like a complete dork while I watched him talk to an invisible Lopez.
It was an awesome experience and I am so excited to see the final cut. I will keep all of you updated on when it comes out so you can watch it and feel free to laugh at my stuttering/ rambling… or compliment me on the awesome earrings I wore.
