. in the waiting line

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E The earlier you can come in the better, that way you can get comfortable, we can start chatting even before we start recording, all helps. We'll have a few guiding questions so it's not completely unstructured but to be honest, most of the time we go totally off piste anyway. Zayn. Total cunt.

L I L Y 2PM start right? Glam's coming at 11 so I can aim for 30-45 early? My publicist will love having a call on edits, but she's pretty easy regardless, I got lucky. I'm pretty sure she's a fan. I feel like I could tell, he sounded so stilted?

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E Perfect, I'll have coffee waiting. We've loved working with your team actually so I believe it. I'd say you got lucky but I think you get back what you put out into the world, so you must just put out good energy! Loads of restrictions, kept getting annoyed at every question, had clearly never listened before. Think he's also just kind of dumb.

L I L Y Actually can I do green tea with honey? Sorry, back on the tour grind. And they really are - I actually cycled through a few before I got to them. Had enough people around saying greedy ones will tank the talent first so kept that in mind. I had a Rainberry phase, admittedly.

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E You got it. At least you had your family to advise you... another thing I wanna chat about! K nevermind, you're cancelled. x

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y Yeah, a godsend. Zac was good there too, but we'll discuss! The beat though! It was so easy to tune out to.

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E Sooo much to unpack. He was also very good looking. That's as far as his good qualities go.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y You'll have to volley a few stories back at the very least. Tit for tat. Did he give good dad energy?

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E Just try to stop me, Sara throws paperclips at me whenever I'm talking about my own experiences too much. No, he did not.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y I won't! We'll probably go over time, I hope your editors don't hate us. I feel like you've been dying to ask things but haven't been because we were getting on your schedule. Sad. I feel like she'll be a very accomplished equestrian!

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E Have time to grab a quick dinner after or will you be back on the road? There's a truly wild amount I want to talk about! Well at least she'll have that, real rich girl shit.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y I leave the next morning so should be fine! I have a couple phoners after we wrap but they should be quick then I'm all yours, off the record. She'll be having her 13th birthday party at their sprawling Pennsylvania estate and they'll all go on a trail ride. Actually sounds kind of nice, wonder if I could score an invite?

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E Fab, you can take them from the studio if you like. Love a post pod debrief, that's where the real gossip happens. Not after you've associated with me, I'm afraid.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y Amazing thank youu, the team'll love not having to relocate somewhere for them. Feel free to listen in, see how PR I can sound. I'm sure we'll remember all the stories we meant to bring up but forgot when the subject changed. I'll take you any day, sorry to Kai and her horse girls. When does Sara officially move out?

[sylvia constantinou]

S Y L V I E You are so chill, I'd sooner die than have someone listen in on me. That's what notes apps are for! Supposedly in about a week. Are you looking? Please be looking.
