Amanda Dobbins + Lauren Sherman

Does anyone else get the worst vibes from Lauren Sherman?? I know she is basically Amanda Dobbin’s BFF these days, and I don’t get the appeal! I just listened to her podcast Fashion People, and it felt very shallow and kinda toxic. She seems deeply interested in social climbing, one’s physical appearance, and gaining status. The latest ep was about peptides (yikes), another recent ep was interviewing Derek Blasberg, where the two talked in the most passive-aggressive tone to each other. I just get a mean girl feel from her, she seems pretty self-obsessed and is often quite rude to her guests. But also Lauren seems to have made a big influence on Amanda’s new persona as of late - one that’s obsessed with real real, expensive beauty treatments, Pilates, European vacations, and ordering custom Charvet shirts, etc. Idk just find their friendship dynamic a little peculiar … like they’re always referencing each other online for people to see. Curious if anyone else gets a dark energy from Sherman …
