Chace Crawford: 17 Questions

1. When was your first kiss?Oh, my goodness, it was like sixth grade. It was very picturesque on this cliff with my first girlfriend, Kiley. She was my best friend’s twin sister. I’m actually good friends with her today.

2. Who’s your celebrity crush?Angelina Jolie or Brittany Murphy. I actually met Brittany Murphy, and she just exudes this confidence that’s very attractive. And Angelina Jolie … well, come on!

3. What’s the girl fashion trend that confuses you?The big sunglasses, like the ones Paris Hilton wears. They look like alien space astronauts. That confuses me a bit.

4. What’s the girly movie you secretly love?I’m going to go with 10 Things I Hate About You. That’s the first thing that hit my mind. I really like that movie. It was great and I thought it was really funny!

5. What’s your TV guilty pleasure?I’m such an Office fanatic, but I’m not guilty about that. I guess The Real World would be my guilty pleasure. I’ve watched it since I was in high school.

6. Who would play you in the movie version of your life?That’s a tough question. I’m such a DiCaprio fan, so I guess I would pick him.

7. What’s your dream job?I would love to be a top gun in the Air Force, probably. I always wanted to do that since I was little because I’m such a fan of Top Gun. I watch the movie like once a month.

8. If you could trade places with anyone in the world for one day, who would it be?I would trade places with Dirk Nowitzki — you probably don’t know who that is. He’s the star MVP for the Dallas Mavericks this year. I’m a sports fanatic, so it would be cool to see what it’s like to be a basketball player.

9. Who in your family are you closest to?Definitely my father. We’ve become really close over the past years. He’s a dermatologist in Dallas, so we have opposite personalities, like, he’s real type A, and I’m more laid-back, easygoing, and creative. He just tries to understand the acting thing so much and has gotten into it while supporting my career. He’s always on IMDB and comes to my set and hangs out. He wants to start investing in films and stuff, so we’ve become closer through all that.

10. What’s your favorite Website?I like break.com. They have all of these videos that people post — kind of like a YouTube, but more disaster videos. It has lots of crashes, people getting hurt, stupid pranks, hitting themselves in the face, stuff like that. I can get stuck on that for hours. That’s my favorite.

11. What’s the fast food you can’t live without?McDonald’s. I used to go there all the time. I’m not a health fanatic, but I try to eat balanced meals, so I only indulge in McDonald’s about once a month now, especially after seeing Supersize Me.

12. What’s your worst habit?I slack on the laundry a lot. I have a bunch of little bad habits, but that’s one of the worst ones.

13. What’s the last song you listened to on your iPod?The White Stripes — “The Icky Thump.” I just downloaded it so it’s one of the last ones I listened to. I’m all over the map when it comes to music. I like old school hip-hop, Sublime, Nirvana, old rock — all sorts of stuff.

14. What’s the last thing you bought?I think it was a hot dog on the street. Before that I think it was this shirt at Diesel.

15. What did you dream about last night?I think I had a dream about a dog. I’ve been wanting a dog, and my friend has this huge English mastiff, and that’s the kind that I want. In my dream, though, I was running in my Airforce Ones or whatever, getting chased by the dog with a giant head.

16. How much money is in your wallet right now?It’s funny — I can’t find my debit card, and I had about $25 in my pocket. But, I just got this random call from a taxi driver. It literally took me 10 or 15 minutes to figure out what he was talking about. Turns out my real estate broker (I just got a new apartment) left his briefcase with my info in it in the taxicab, and so the taxi driver called the number on there, which was my cell. So I met up with him to get my broker’s briefcase and had to pay the driver the last of the cash in my wallet. As of now, I can’t get McDonald’s because I have no debit card. It’s terrible.

17. Fill in the blank: When I was 17, I was ____________.Ignorant. No, I was … very fortunate. No, I was … spunky. I was … rebellious. Black sheep of the family. Any one of those. I was … happy to graduate from high school. I was … in Texas. I was … loving life at 17. It was easier, less complicated. I was … simple. How ’bout that? I was just simple.
