“Famous People” writers kait_tiffany and space_clam on their collection of the column’s greatest parties, and their new book 'Nobody Famous.'
On Nobody Famous: Guesting, Gossiping, Gallivanting,
“We've had the experience somewhat often of thinking that something sounds really weird and therefore that it's going to be really interesting and fun to write about,” Plaugic tells NYLON. “And then it's not. It's actually really boring. And then we have a lot more fun writing about stuff that on the surface would seem like nothing happened.”
NYLON spoke with Tiffany and Plaugic ahead of the book’s release about their favorite parties, that time they accidentally shared an Airbnb with a giant bunny, and about how partying has changed for them throughout the last five years.Many people start Substacks and they quickly die out. Obviously you're never going to run out of parties. But what has kept it going?I would say it's because we had no plan and no rules and no structure.
KT: I really like the fall trip ones. We have gone on our fall trip together with our friend Ashley every year since the beginning of my memory. Some of them are really good because it's shocking to look back at some of the choices we made. When you envision a fall trip, there's a quite clear image of what that should be for people escaping New York for a weekend: look at the foliage and drink apple cider and stuff. Somehow we would always wait until the last minute to plan it.
LP: It was when we first started doing this and we were like, oh, "We're going to go to this weird party hosted by someone named Meme Slut." And we got there and there were four people sitting down in a circle in the back of the room, and it was just uncomfortable and strange. And there was this one person wildly dancing while everyone watched and set the stage for what a not super cool party could look like.
LP: We do take notes. Sometimes it is odd to be somewhere taking notes. When we went to the amateur arm wrestling practice in Greenpoint, we already stuck out a little bit because most of the crowd was large, sweaty men. Kait and I both had notebooks, and we didn't necessarily seem prepared to arm wrestle, which I guess we weren't. So it can make you stand out.
