First I Wake Up

FUN FACT: Really Famous was almost called First I Wake Up (and this was going to be the logo). That’s because my original premise was different — I was planning to interview celebs about their typical daily routine. When do you wake up? What do you reach for? Are you a morning person? What do you eat for dinner? When do you put your pjs on? Last thing you do before bed?

I actually taped 2 episodes with this format — @timgunn & @lizlangeofficial — but quickly realized that what makes my talks special is the deeper connection and conversation I like to have with my guests. So just like that, I ditched the name & this temporary logo. It wasn’t easy to come up with a new name. I spent hours and hours debating it with family and friends (remember sitting at my kitchen island, wracking our brains @christimla ?) and jotting down dozens of possibilities on a clipboard.

You’ve probably heard me explain it on the show, to a few of my celebrity guests, but in case you missed it …

It’s #reallyfamous because I interview #famous people but I’m all about getting to know who they #really are.
