On the Podcast: Fran Drescher Is Mad as Hell

Chloe Malle: We love that.

Fran Drescher: Yeah. Who doesn’t love a hooker with a heart of gold?

Chloe Malle: And Fran, are you in Malibu now?

Fran Drescher: I am.

Chloe Malle: I like this sort of, is this—

Fran Drescher: The more work I could do from here, the more I can feel balanced. If I’m here, then whatever they throw at me, I could process better.

Chloe Malle: Wonderful. Well, from Flushing to Malibu, we are so happy to have chatted with you, Fran.

Fran Drescher: My pleasure. And I’m a subscriber.

Chloe and Chioma: Yeah! Oh my God, yay!

Chloe Malle: We love to hear it.

Fran Drescher: Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God. And I even bought the, um, it must have been the French Vogue because I had a layover at Charles de Gaulle on my way home from the Dolce & Gabbana, uh, event in Italy, and I got the one that has all the runway pictures.

Chioma Nnadi: Oh yeah. I know that one. “Collections.” Yeah.

Fran Drescher: Yeah. Oh, for me, uh, you know that that is the equivalent of sucking my thumb and twirling my hair.

Chloe Malle: Which collections did you love? Do you remember seeing any that you were like, “Ooh”?

Fran Drescher: You know, I’ve never really been familiar with Off-White.

Chloe Malle: Mhm.

Fran Drescher: And, uh, now that I’m familiar with it, I, you know, it’s, it’s piqued my interest.

Chloe Malle: Oh, we love, love it.

Fran Drescher: So, I mean, some of the things that are on the runway and maybe what gets printed is, I mean, I look at it as wearable art, but it’s nothing that I would wear.

Chloe Malle: Right.

Fran Drescher: You know, and at this point I’m like more conscious of covering up certain body parts that I think are not my best feature anymore or ever, really. But now it’s like, okay, we’re gonna wear a little sleeve here, ladies, and …

[LAUGHTER]

Fran Drescher: but I can still rock a midriff, so thank God for the little things. Yes.
