Most Fabulous Bravo Personalities: #12 - James Lipton

by Allison

As part of the NaBloPoMo celebration, I’m posting my list of top 30 Most Fabulous Bravo Personalities. The points of qualification? Only one: be utterly fabulous. “Fabulous can mean intriguing, funny, hot, crazy…or all of the above. Stop back every day during November to see if you favorite star has made the list!

Today’s Fabulous #12 is James Lipton, host of Bravo’s Actor’s Studio.

Why is James fabulous? Have you seen The Actor’s Studio? This guy rocks. James Lipton interviews the biggest stars without even batting an eyelash, but more importantly, he does so in a way that invites them to share their stories. It’s not like he’s Barbara Walters, asking tough, uncomfortable questions. He does his research, he guides them, and he gets them to talk. It’s more like a conversation than an interview, and I love that.

His commitment to quality alone is enough to make him fabulous. Mr. Lipton spends hours and hours and days and maybe even weeks prepping for each interview. He wants to know what he’s talking about!

And you know what? The guy is funny, too!

If all that isn’t enough to qualify you for my Fabulous List, nothing is. James Lipton is amazing, end of story.

Check back tomorrow for #11!
