<p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Probably the most famous YouTuber in the world, <strong>Emma Chamberlain</strong> was born in 2001 in San Bruno, California. She started by chance, after experiencing the toxicity of the school environment in which she lived. In seven years of activity she has collected more than 15 million followers, a community that follows her in her videos published on a weekly basis, which she edits in about 20 or 30 hours of work. Incessant marathons: <em>"My eyesight has gotten worse, now I wear glasses. And I work from bed, sitting at a desk would have caused me too many back problems".</em> In addition to her YouTube channel, she records a podcast on Spotify, uses TikTok, talks about the most glamorous side of her life on Instagram and has her own brand Chamberlain Coffee. Her style is intelligently entertaining, fresh and never banal. We meet her in Paris during fashion week, while she is preparing for our photoshoot. She is sought after by fashion houses, from Louis Vuitton to Calvin Klein, after having accustomed us to the girly looks by Miu Miu at the past MET Galas, where</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">she has been interviewing guests on the red carpet since 2021, and where this year she amazed with a creation by Jean Paul Gaultier, both goth and super sexy, accompanied by Cartier jewelry, the brand for which she is an ambassador.<br /><br /></span> <strong><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">L'OFFICIEL:</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Have you always</span></strong> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;"><strong>wanted to be a YouTuber?</strong><br /></span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">EMMA CHAMBERLAIN:</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">My</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">career started in 2017.</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">I was 16 and going</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">through a rough patch,</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">so I really needed</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">a creative outlet.

I chose a super tiny top, which was a pretty risky move, but it was so much fun! There could have been a fashion emergency at any moment.</span></p>

<p><strong>LO:</strong> <span><strong>What ties you to Cartier?</strong><br /></span> <span>EC:</span> <span>My first memory is my first Met Gala. I was shopping in some vintage stores and I found this beautiful Cartier watch, gold and super delicate. I think I was looking for something to remember the Met Gala moment. I wanted to give myself a little treat for doing something that was on my bucket list. I had no connection with the house at the time. I&rsquo;ve been working with Cartier for a few years now, I think maybe three, and I think what&rsquo;s been the most exciting for me is learning about the world of jewelry. I didn&rsquo;t know much about it before and it&rsquo;s such a different world than I expected. The jewelry is so detailed, these little</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">spectacular machines.<br /><br /></span> <strong style="letter-spacing: 0px;">LO:</strong> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;"><strong>Which Cartier pieces are essential to your looks?<br /></strong></span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">EC:</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Everyone knows me for the Love Hoops earrings that I wear literally every single day. And if someone doesn&rsquo;t see me with them, they worry. They ask me if I look okay. &ldquo;Is it a clone? Doesn&rsquo;t she wear Cartier earrings?&rdquo; I have them in white gold and yellow gold. They are a classic, I love them. Cartier has beautiful statement pieces like the one I&rsquo;m wearing now from the &ldquo;Nature Sauvage&rdquo; collection, but they also have more minimalist, everyday pieces.</span></p>
