Bon Apetit magazine, a gourmet recipe-of-the-month collection for the well-traveled and sophisticated foodist* recently published an interview with gangster rap mogul Rick Ross. Although Ross has the girth and bankroll of the more typical Bon Apetit feature interviewee, his raw style contrasts starkly with the magazine’s more refined readership. One can imagine the magazine’s E.I.C. vacationing in Martha’s Vineyard some scalding week in late-June while her young intern racked his brain for interview subjects, only to have an epiphany during his morning commute while he was listening to the Gucci Mane station on Pandora Radio. What an oddly, even paradoxically appropriate interview. This gets Rounge thinking… what are other would-be examples of unexpected interviewer/interviewee pairs?
*Anyone who says “foodie” gky immediately.
