The other day my friend Virginia and I were discussing Downton Abbey and how much we love Maggie Smith. And then we decided how much we’d love to have drinks with her. And it got me to thinking of what other celebrity ladies I’d love to have drinks with. But then I realize everyone is different and there would be different drinks necessary. So here we go:
Maggie Smith. We’d meet at a classy joint and sip tea. Or maybe that’s just the Dowager. Maybe Maggie would let loose with some Gin Fizzes or shots of sherry. In any case I’d ask her to tell me secrets of Harry Potter & Downton Abbey and she’d be my new fabulous grandma.
Kate Winslet. I would split a bottle of wine with her. And she would tell me all about Leo and it would be magical and girly.
Tyra Banks. We would sip cosmos and chat about Top Model and practice being Fierce. I’d ask her about her project to take over the world and see if she needs any help. Also, I’d find a way to use Smize in the conversation.
Jennifer Lawrence. Not sure my liver could handle hanging out with her but I feel like a night of shooters at a dive bar would be our kind of night. We’d also take pictures making funny faces because, why not?
Zoe Saldana. I feel like she’s a martini lady and we’d be classy and mistaken for sisters and she’d tell me all about filming Star Trek and Crossroads and how Bradley Cooper spoke French to her when they were dating. Instant pals I tell you.
I know there’s more ladies I’d drink with (and a list of guys too!) but these are the top for now. Who would be on your list and what would you be drinking?
happy weekend!

Great idea!
Jennifer Garner, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep most definitely!
And because I will always love Sex & The City, Sarah Jessica Parker.
OPRAH.
I’ve been wanting to be her friend for years.
Mindy Kaling! I’d say Tina Fey, but I think I’d be too intimidated by her. With Mindy, she’s closer in age and wouldn’t judge me for ordering a girly drink.
This is a fun idea for a post! I’d definitely want to have a drink with Jennifer Lawrence. Even though she’s a billion times cooler than me. Ha.
Or Mindy Kaling. She’s also a billion times cooler than me. But then again, I guess most celebrities are so this is a moot point. HA.
I also think I would get along swimmingly with Kelly Clarkson. We could totes be BFF.
Great question!
I think I’d second Jennifer Lawrence. I agree with your dive bar assessment though maybe we’d grab some beers and go to an adult arcade? I’d totally invite Amy Poehler over for tapas and sangria. And then, later that week, I feel Anna Kendrick and I could be all girly and have cocktails. With Oprah, it would have to be champagne over brunch. Then settle down with Whoopi Goldberg for a gin & tonic.
Yeah…I could probably come up with a very long list
What a fun idea!
I would say Kristin Wiig and Maya Angelou. Not together obvs…
Maya would be iced tea (and fried chicken) and Kristin would probably be vodka on the rocks. But a flavored vodka because we’re classy like that. LOL
Oh and definitely Jennifer Lawrence too. I totally have a girl crush on her since seeing Silver Linings Playbook.
Definitely Maggie and Jennifer! I think Meryl Streep would be another on my list!
Love this list and I’m absolutely down for drinks with Maggie and Jennifer and maybe even Tyra too, if only because she’s a crazy person in the best way.
