Christie Brinkley’s 'Uptown Girl' is pure memoir magic

When you think of Christie Brinkley, you think of iconic beauty and timeless style, but her new memoir "Uptown Girl" shows there’s so much more to this superstar. I got to chat with Christie for Great Day TV, and her life is honestly like a movie—think Paris, art school, and being discovered by chance!

Christie shares not only her runway highlights but also the tough times, like the infamous helicopter crash and life’s “sliding doors” moments. As she told me, “Sometimes you know you’re living through magic as it happens. Other times, you only see it looking back.”

"Uptown Girl" is filled with stories that are glamorous, funny, and surprisingly relatable, whether you dream of Paris or just surviving family chaos at home.

Christie hopes her book will inspire readers to “write their own script” and find adventure in their everyday lives. And trust me—after hearing her wild stories, you might just want to start journaling yourself.

Oh, and for my fellow animal lovers, don’t worry—Christie’s beloved pets play a part in her story, too. She shares her love of pets in the interview too!
