From the front row at Betsey Johnson’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week show, actress and singer, Christina Milian and sister Liz told us about their first ever Fashion Week adventure together in New York!
What brings you to the Betsey Johnson show today?
Christina: I love Betsey! Betsey’s just full of pizazz, so much character, she never wants to grow up and that’s what I’m like, I don’t ever want to grow up. I want to have fun, to live life, to be a free spirit and I have to see what this season is all about. I’ve been a fan for many years.
Is this your sister (sitting next to you)?
Christina: Yes, we’re out here for Fashion Week and my E! docu-series. It’s called Christina Milian Turned Up! On E!. It’ll be out next year. I’m excited.
What is it like having Fashion Week adventures with your sister?
Christina: It’s fun! It’s our first Fashion Week together.
Liz: She’s trying to dress me up in different clothes.
Christina: I’m like ‘Lizzie, we’re in New York, it’s Fashion Week, we’ve got to spruce it up!’ It’s a lot of fun. The second we hit New York, everyone knew we were here and my phone’s been ringing off the hook. It’s like they say, New York never sleeps, it’s the truth, especially during Fashion Week.
What are some insider things you’re showing your sister since it’s her first time at Fashion Week?
Christina: Well, the fashion shows, a couple showrooms and then she hasn’t really gotten to experience the nightlife.
Liz: What not to wear! She’s taken like three outfits off of me! [laughs]
Christina: Yes, I’m showing her what not to wear and where to go in New York.
Any fun tips on places you love to go that you’re showing your sister?
Christina: I usually go with the flow but the Meat Packing District is one of my favorite places. I’ve got to take her to SoHo so we can go shopping and just like throw on our sandals and go for a walk.
Is there a favorite restaurant that you have in New York City?
Christina: I love Catch, especially to go and eat and then the music will turn up and we’ll have a good time.
Do you have a favorite song right now?
Christina: Anaconda by Nicki Minaj!
