- I one time met Colin Firth and I said,
"Mr. Darcy!"
Cause I'm an idiot.
We're just gonna forget, it never happened.
Hey guys, my name is Carly Rae Jepsen,
and I'm gonna be sharing my "Guilty Pleasures"
with Moxi and Sass.
"The Great British Bake Off."
I'm obsessed!
It calms me down when I can't sleep.
I put it on, sometimes I fall asleep
just listening to those people
baking those sweet things.
And I always need to like
Postmate something delicious while I'm watching.
It's not really good for the figure,
but it's good for the heart.
Fun fact, I used to be a bakery chef assistant
at a cafe in Vancouver called Trees.
And I made eight cheesecakes every morning,
along with many muffins, and sandwiches,
and little treats.
And it was one of the happiest times of my life.
Except for the part where I had to wake up
at like four in the morning. That was not so cool.
A guilty pleasure film, that I'm actually
not that guilty about is Pride and Prejudice
the A&E version. I don't know if that counts as a film,
but we're going to go with it.
I just love me some Mr. Darcy.
I one time met Colin Firth
in a movie rental place, when movie rental places
were still a thing, and I said "Mr. Darcy!"
Cause I'm an idiot.
He was very sweet about the whole thing.
We're just gonna forget, it never happened.
Guilty pleasure, the first CD
that I ever went to the store and purchased
with my own money was the Spice Girls.
And I didn't know they were called
the Spice Girls yet, I just heard the song
on the radio, and all my girlfriends
were singing it at school.
So I went up to the sales person and I said,
"Have you heard of this song, it's like
'Tell me whatcha want, what you really--'"
And he's like, "Right this way, come here."
That's still my favorite Spice Girls song.
Ya, absolutely. It doesn't get better than that.
There are so many strange Instagram accounts
that I'm fascinated that I have decided
to follow, and yet no regrets.
One of them actually, I was so fascinated
that she ended up in my music video for
a Party For One, and this is a girls
I hope I'm getting it right,
but it's @breadfaceblog?
And it's a girl whose concept on Instagram
is that she just posts a picture
of a new kind of bread,
and she just puts her face in it.
And smushes the bread, and it's really weird
but I've seen way too many of these videos,
and when I show it to somebody else,
they have the same problem. It's just so weird
and fascinating, and I quite love her.
So, we opened the Party For One video
with her just smashing her face into some bread.
Why not?
My first ever crush, I actually found my journal,
my diary from when I was little,
in elementary school, and it said,
"Michael Lowry is the number one cutest
but the second nicest boy in elementary school."
And then it said, "Kevin Bittner is
the number one nicest but the second cutest."
And then you flip the page and it says,
"And I'm in love with Michael Lowry."
I picked the not nice but the cute one,
it's very telling sign.
I don't know if I call my pleasure guilty,
but it... yeah, okay.
It's that song,
"You're just too good to be true."
And then I can remember
we'd go skiing and snowboarding,
cause we're Canadian, that's what we do.
In the winters, and my favorite thing to do
which would embarrass the hell out of my father
was to sing while going down the mountain.
And the best part was the, "I love you!"
But you have to try it. It's a feeling.
I mean, I'm not guilty about my love of ice cream,
but that's like a pretty daily occurrence
when I'm in L.A. cause there's this place
called Jeni's, and it's everything.
And I even have the merch, the sweater that says,
"Please take me to Jeni's." And I just wear it
around my friends when I'm feeling low
in case someone might--
(laughing)
A song that I'm still really proud
I was brave enough to put out,
that everyone had on their list of like,
"This song is nuts," is a song from
B Side of Emotion called the Store. It's weird.
People are gonna either love it or hate it,
I thought. I kind of loved the concept of,
instead of breaking up with a guy,
that you would just like peace out and,
as the dads in the 50's used to go
get a pack of cigarettes and never come back.
That you just like go to the store and like, bye!
Okay, I've never really understood blue cheese.
It smells like an old man's foot,
and like probably tastes like that.
Actually it does, I've tasted it once,
which is why I decided that it's the worst food
in the entire world.
Why do they out it on salads?
Why do they mess up beautiful wings?
(sighing)
So many questions.
Thanks for watching. I'm Carly Rae Jepsen,
and let me know your guilty pleasures
in the comments below.
(mellow music)
