Ashley Tisdale on Texting, Trends, and Reality TV
Ashley at the 2011 LG Texting Championship in NYC.1/5Teen Vogue: Hi Ashley! Tell us about your role in this texting championship.
Ashley Tisdale: I'm giving the prize, which is $50,000 to the winner. It's perfect for me, because I'm a big fan of LG, I'm a big texter myself, and I'm always into the latest tech gadgets.
Teen Vogue: What phone are you using now?
Ashley Tisdale: I just got the new LG DoublePlay and I'm really excited about it. It comes out in November and it's awesome. It has two screens, so you can Facebook and text at the same time!
LG DoublePlay. lg.com.2/5Teen Vogue: Who was the last person you texted, and who do you text the most?
Ashley Tisdale: I just texted my mom. I text a lot people, because it's how I stay connected with all my family and friends when I'm on set and traveling.
Teen Vogue: What's your favorite emoticon?
Ashley Tisdale: I definitely use the smily face and the wink face a lot. There are so many emoticons these days, I'm kind of old fashioned.
Teen Vogue: What websites do you visit most from your phone?
Ashley Tisdale: I'm always shopping online from my phone, especially on Shopbop.
Gucci 1973 Medium Boston Bag, $1,900. neimanmarcus.com.3/5Teen Vogue: Other than your phone, what do you always have in your bag?
Ashley Tisdale: Sunglasses; lipgloss—either Chanel or Mac; and Chanel powder, because it's perfect for touch-ups throughout the day. And my keys and wallet, too.
Teen Vogue: What kind of bag are you carrying?
Ashley Tisdale: Well, you know me—I'm such a bag lady! For this trip, I took one of my Gucci's.
Alice + Olivia Pleated Leather Skirt, $495. net-a-porter.com.4/5Teen Vogue: What are your must-haves for fall?
Ashley Tisdale: I'm really loving the leather skirt by Alice and Olivia. It's great to dress up. You can put a crop top with it, or pair it with cute colored stockings, boots, and a jacket. I'm really into the layering.
Teen Vogue: Have you had any big splurges this season?
Ashley Tisdale: My Rolex watch!
Ashley pictured with the 2011 LG Texting Champion.5/5Teen Vogue: Tell us about your show that just got picked up by Bravo.
Ashley Tisdale: It's a docu-follow about girls in three different cities—San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York, following their dating lives. They're journalists who write about relationships and we're going to see if they practice what they preach.
Teen Vogue: What are your must-see reality shows?
Ashley Tisdale: I'm in love with Bravo. Me and my girlfriends love "Bravo-ing," which doesn't necessarily mean watching Bravo. It's when you're a bum and you're on your couch watching reality shows. I also watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians. It's a guilty pleasure.
Teen Vogue: What else is next for you?
Ashley Tisdale: I'm looking at scripts, and I just sold a show to ABC. I'll be directing and starring in it, but right now it's just in beginning stages.
