Yep, I met Joey Essex. For the second time. No I am not a stalker.

Honest!

I was invited by Meadowhall to experience their Ladies Night again- remember this post from 2 years ago(how time flies!) I managed to wangle my time so I could pop in on my way home and also attend the ‘press conference’ with Joey Essex. I mean why not?


I was given a lovely goody bag full of bits from Boots, House of Fraser, Urban Decay, Benito Brow Bar and Hotel Chocolat, plus I managed to squeeze in a visit to Debenhams for a goody bag, peruse Boots and NYX and to quickly nip into Simply Be to look at dresses. If you don’t know what ladies night is, it’s basically a big event where by registering for free in advance you can get discounts and freebies on the night. River Island had 20% off (luckily I resisted) and loads of shops did too, it’s getting bigger and bigger I must say!

There were beauty stations offering lots of different treatments, freebie stands giving away Hawaiian Tropic Suncream sachets (I stocked up for Tenerife!) and hair mask samples, free candy floss or sweets or popcorn, plus live music and DJ’s and make up demos! Loads was happening!


I had to be quick as I had to get to a meeting point to be able to then go and meet Joey Essex. I then met up with Leanne, Aimee, Lauren and Shannon. We basically were then lead to the front of the queue where people had been waiting for ages! We waited out turn and then got to go and ask him a few questions- for those that are fans of his I thought I’d pop them below! I can’t remember who asked what though so sorry as it was pretty quick!

He confirmed he still had blonde hair but hadn’t done it that day so had a cap on(he quickly showed us a peek  and the crowd literally went mental!) he said it takes him about twenty mins to do his hair and he mainly uses his own line but a few others too.

I asked him if he used Skincare and he said he sometimes uses Nivea for Men and was keeping it affordable! Can’t beat it can you really!?

He said his favourite beauty product (after we clarified what we meant by beauty product ) was Creed aftershave.

I asked him if he had any fave bloggers or vloggers, he said not and asked if fashion bloggers were people who wrote about fashion, (we said yes) said he had heard and seen then on Instagram.

He said his style icon was James Deanbut doesn’t really have one now as such and said he’d nearly worn short shorts to do the meet and greet but changed into black skinny jeans just before- I think the girls waiting to see him may have preferred the shorts!

Overall he was very lovely, he also said he liked my Lumee phone case and advised me to get a ‘Strapzy Case’ as they are way better! I’m off to google them now….

Let me know in the comments about the best celeb you’ve had a chat with , the funnier the better!
