Pandora = basically phoning it all in...

Watching Dolly's Fane event. It's so weird that she's been sat rehashing details of her love life and then casually mentions that her boyfriend's sister is in the audience who's been hearing it all!
 
And voila, Pandora, who has NOTHING to do with fashion, getting the quids in just one day after junking her book subscription...

'Described as “a visually dazzling chronicle of the fashion world spanning three decades”, the series uses rare library material, never-before-seen personal archives and story-driven interviews to explore the ‘Golden Age’ of fashion from the early-1990s to the 2010s.'

She started off as fashion editor at The Sunday Times Style. I don't know, I think this, hosting, presenting etc seems more her thing than her desperately trying to make it as a writer and literary guru.
She knows she doesn’t have what it takes to become a writer, I think she realised that after the reviews on her book. She is better at the hosting interviewing thing, she looks the part, has the connections and it requires less skill than writing. Also, she cannot cope with criticism and hosting or presenting stuff is unlikely to give her any bad reviews! It’s an easy, safe and fun job for her. Turn up, look pretty, ask some questions. Drink some champagne, go home.
 
I already commented above about how all the luvvie books have the same cover- EIKAL looked like that years ago, I think they’ve just mocked up poor DJ’s book to look like a generic luvvie book 😕
I agree, the publishers did her dirty on that cover design. Aside from anything else, it’s so annoying that her name is in title case and the actual title isn’t - at least be consistent like Dolly’s!
