hi vogue it's cindy crawford i'm here in
new york city
i have a very big day today we're going
to the empire state building
and i'm actually going to end up at a
broadway show that i'm very excited
about
but i'm going to start out here at the
gym
my next stop is my favorite place in new
york to get coffee balthazar i go
every morning when i'm here they have
the best latte
good morning good can i get a latte with
an extra shot of espresso
so usually when i'm at home for
breakfast i will make my own smoothie
here like at balthazar they have a very
good omelette with spinach and mushrooms
that's one of my favorites
if i'm with my husband he always orders
french toast and i always have at least
one bite
i always say i try to be 80 good 80 of
the time because i feel like that's
achievable
and it pays off in the long run thank
you thank you so much have a good one
okay so i'm gonna get a shower but i'll
see you guys in a little bit
thank you
so i have genevieve doing makeup and i
have christopher doing hair
and just having a very mellow morning
talking politics
i'm going to the empire state building
today on behalf of jones new york but
also
delivering goods which is a
non-for-profit
and what i love about it is that they
take new merchandise from
different manufacturers and companies
and they take it to people in need when
you partner with the charity you get to
light the empire state building and they
get to light it in the color of the
charity
and today i'm lighting it up blue and i
don't really i think i get to flip the
switch they don't let me
they don't let me get near the control
booth but i get to flip the switch
when i do my own makeup it's i timed it
actually
three minutes i look to kaia now i look
at her makeup she's so good at it
because i didn't have youtube
growing up like she if she wants to
learn a makeup trend or whatever she
just goes on youtube and learns how to
do it and she's not afraid to try
new things i mean the great thing about
makeup these days and if you watch shows
like euphoria
it's like allowing people to have fun
with makeup there's no rules anymore
you should just do what makes you feel
good okay so now i'm ready to get
dressed
i think it's supposed to rain later so
i'm gonna grab this little trench
and then i think i'm gonna go for jeans
because
i'm a jeans girl so that will be my look
for today
little white shirt underneath i love a
blazer and a jean and a heel it's like i
feel like i can go anywhere in that
okay so i'm gonna get dressed but you
guys can't come on this part
okay so voila i'm all ready to go
and i'm just going to get my bag
together and we'll get out of here
so essentials of course money and all my
credit cards and id
and all that my speech my remarks for
today
gum because you talk to a lot of people
and i might have some more coffee
my phone of course but i usually put
that in my back pocket and let's uh
just a scarf in case for later tonight
but also
ties my bag in with my outfit
i spent all my 20s in new york i love
new york
i loved living here i just love the
energy of the city
and even though i live in malibu now
whenever i come back i'm
excited to be here one thing that's
really different about
my generation to let's say kai's
generation is i didn't grow up wanting
to be a model i didn't even
really know what a model was
didn't really know any models i think
the first one i was aware of was phoebe
cates from teen vogue
and i remember going to the first agency
in chicago and you know starting out
small doing catalog
and one of the big reasons i got in to
see some of the best photographers right
away
was because people thought i looked like
gia
karanji they were like baby gia we have
baby chia and it's funny they say that
about kaya
now today
when american vogue left my beauty mark
on it was like
okay that a beauty mark can be accepted
as being beautiful not something that
you have to cover up or retouch off you
know it might not seem like such a big
deal
today but the generation of models
before me was all like blonde hair and
blue eyes
so even the fact that me and christy and
linda you know we were all more brunette
and
like that was the beginning of showing
that there isn't
one ideal of beauty that you can find
beauty everywhere
so here i am at the empire state
building and they asked me to leave a
piece of memorabilia so i chose my book
becoming which
came up right when i turned 50. but in
it is my very first vote cover
once you have your first vote cover
that's like the fashion world
seal of approval there was another page
in here i was looking for that it had
all my vote covers
oh here this is what i was looking for
those are my vote covers
it's crazy
i forget how to sign my name sometimes
voila
okay it's show time i have some remarks
to make
since 1985 over 2 billion
worth of product has been donated and
distributed through delivering goods
network of community partners serving
individuals and families affected by
poverty and disasters worldwide
one two three
so here we are on the 86th floor of the
empire state building
and i have to say it's a very nice view
okay so now i get to meet a friend for
lunch
come on
i get to have lunch even on a busy day
and i got to meet a friend and since
it's vogue of course i called one of my
supermodel friends
to have lunch with helena christensen
over the past few years we've
reconnected about kids
and and also i mean in some ways
we're still connected to the fashion
industry whether you know even when you
think you're retiring like
or kind of getting out of it you're not
so we're all kind of in the same boat
from the beginning we have the history
we have the present and the future too
and the kids
yeah you know which is i think really
beautiful that you and i especially
kind of reconnected via them yeah which
i love yeah
something really special happened when
we
all came to the scene but i think the
difference is
the the importance of social media and
it just adds one more
layer um to really what your job is
everything you do then there's also the
social media part like just when you
think that
that's their biggest difference really
and i'm so relieved that we did not have
to
deal with that side how happy are you
for all those that not everyone had a
camera all the time
so it's always great catching up with
helena and now i'm headed to
jones new york and i will be reviewing
the campaign images
also i get to meet with some women from
delivering
hi angie
one of my favorite things to do in new
york is go to the theater
and so tonight i'm going to see jagged
little pill
by alanis morissette and i have to say
i'm a huge alanis fan
her first album jagged little pills
spoke to like my generation of women
it gave us a way to like express anger i
think so much of
women's music before that it's like so
poppy and it's like falling in love
and like all rainbows and butterflies
and
for me alanis was like
she gave me permission to have feelings
that weren't ladylike
and so i'm really excited to see this
show on broadway
well thanks for hanging out with me
today it's been fun and now i'm off to
see the show
