Nope, no nudie shots. Chloe’s over it, frankly, according to the Playboy interview accompanying the image featured above, traumatized as she was to some degree by the fall-out following her infamous blow-job scene in “Brown Bunny.” It’s a shame, but those are the values of our times. Anyway, here’s an excerpt from the q&a with the actress who has always felt like a Snobette friend in our heads:
Q15: In a 1994 Jay McInerney New Yorker article you were crowned the “It girl” and “the coolest girl in the world.” Did having style help or hurt?
“I guess it helped me more than anything else. I’m glad I grew up during the last vestige of cool, in the 1990s, when everything wasn’t blogged and on the Interwebs, when things were more on the downlow and underground. I guess I am stylish, but I would rather have people come up and say ‘I really liked your performance in this or that’ than ‘I really like the way you dress.’ That irks me. Anyway, the term It girl gets used too loosely.”
Q16: How do you mean?
“Today the term is used to describe, say, Peaches Geldof — a girl who doesn’t do anything but is just sort of around. The original It girl was the 1920s movie star Clara Bow; then, in the 1960s, with Edie Sedgwick and Warhol, It girls turned into socialites, ladies of leisure — people who had ‘it’ just for being ‘fabulous.’ But Edie was just a rich drug addict, and when I got called the It girl everyone thought I was that too. I looked like a junkie because it was the 1990s and grunge was the fashion. But I felt I was doing stuff, not just being a socialite.”
