Dylan Wants to be a Candy Queen of the World
Dylan Lauren is a sweet girl with even sweeter tooth and often
ridiculously unfortunate fashion sense. She’s however a respected
entrepreneur who patiently fulfills her press obligations to promote
her burgeoning candy empire. This current chat is actually a great
one brought to you exclusively by LX.TV, a comprehensive website
targeted towards young snobs and those wish to become them. We truly
love the site as it’s a great resource for illiterate aspiring
socialites who prefer to watch their restaurant and event news on Web
television, rather than spending their precious time typing. Below
are the links for Dylan’s three-part interview and the highlight
quotes for those afflicted souls without a decent internet connection.
Part 1: On the legacy Dylan’s Candy Bar
“Candy to us is like diamonds to Tiffany’s.” (Dylan, that’s all good
and stuff but we do visit frequently and some merchandise has been
rotting on shelves for years now. Clean those “diamonds” up!)
“I want to create this fantastical world where you step off the city
streets and you go into Dylan’s Candy Bar and feel like you’re
transported.”
“What’s great about working with my dad and my family is that he has
great vision and I think he has always thought outside the box too.”
Part 2: Growing up Lauren
“After September 11th, people came here as sort of a respite…[they
said] ‘wow this place makes me so happy…’ I like to see people
happy and excited about something they’ve created and I just want to
spread that.”
[people say] “why don’t you go into business with your dad? It’s so
easy..but that’s not my passion, it wouldn’t be fulfilling…I was
more stubborn, I’m going to do my own thing.”
On the cons of her last name: [the perception is that] “she doesn’t
really work…or she’s a snob and wears a lot of nice clothes from
her father.”
“I want to own a candy empire and be the candy queen.”
Part 3: Interview with SuChin Pak, in which Dylan provides with few
memorable quotes:
“I’m Jewish and I’m really into Astrology.” ( She’s Taurus, we hear
for those keeping the witch books)
The last time she had a really good cry: “The death of a pet and
yeah, I’d say people too, funerals are tough…I’m pretty positive
minded. We had a dog that died and that was really hard to put him to
sleep.”
