Summary

Glamorous? Sometimes. Hilarious? Always. For the first time, Carrie Crecca Maitoza steps out from behind her buzzy meme account, @Miss_PR_Piggy, to talk about the PR world she satirizes. If you work in fashion or beauty (or want to know what goes on behind the scenes), this insider episode helps make sense of the notoriously hierarchical industry where every client wants a placement in the New York Times, every editor wants free clothes, and publicists hardly ever get credit for their efforts.

0:00.0	Okay, everyone. What's up? Hi. I'm Jessica. Listen, we're doing an interview today. It's Friday,
0:13.1	at least over here by me. All right. It's me today. Just me. Jenna's off. I sat down with,
0:20.8	okay, in the PR world, we're calling this a coup. Miss PR Piggy. She has removed her mask.
0:29.2	Do you follow Miss PR Piggy? If you don't head over, miss PR Piggy. This is, this is, we're going
0:35.7	a little inside baseball today, guys. All right. She started a meme account for the fashion and beauty
0:45.1	crowd years ago, a few years ago. And it's absolutely hilarious. I'll never forget my friend Adam
0:50.8	started sending me these memes and I was cracking up because she nailed the whole vibe and like the
0:57.9	fashion beauty space where it's not emergency room stuff. This isn't rocket science. This isn't
1:04.0	life or death, but in the fashion and beauty world. I mean, I'm saying inside baseball, if you've
1:07.9	ever seen devil or is prada, you know how it is. If you've ever seen sex in the city of Samantha
1:12.1	Jones, you get the personalities. You've got the vibe. And she created this account, which is

1:23.6	memes. And then a couple of weeks ago, she like removed the mask. She came out and she said,

1:49.7	and meet the real Miss PR Piggy. Carrie, this is your first interview, not as Miss PR Piggy.
2:04.4	This is so exciting. I'm so excited. Thank you for coming on from SCARA.
2:09.6	Oh my god. All right. So, you got to tell me, what was the moment you decided to choose out of
2:15.3	your Miss Piggy identity and come out as Carrie? You're in your, you said it, your scene era.
2:23.0	Yes. I mean, I think it was kind of a long time coming. It really wasn't like totally premeditated.
2:33.2	However, I have sort of like been on a healing journey for most of my adult life.
