Yvonne Scio (Passport to Paris)

Hey, you're Brigitte!Duh, she just said that.No, THE Brigitte. The supermodel!No she's not... is she? Are you?...I'm afraid so.Talk about international relations! With Becca in Los Angeles and Lani in New York, we were able to Zoom into Italy to talk with the supermodel and the scholar, the very impressive woman, Yvonne Scio (AKA Brigitte from Passport to Paris)! We were beside ourselves speaking with this incredibly glamorous multi-hyphenate about her experience filming Passport to Paris. She tells us how Mary-Kate and Ashley were precocious fashionistas at 12 years old, shares how nervous she was playing a French supermodel as an Italian actress in an American film, and finally answers our most burning question about this movie: why didn't they go INSIDE any of the French stores in the iconic shopping montage scene?After moving back to Italy and becoming a mother (her 13-year-old daughter is now a Mary-Kate and Ashley superfan herself 🥺), Yvonne decided to make her own work and is now an accomplished director and producer (links to her work below). We were so incredibly honored for the opportunity to speak with her, and we hope you can feel the inspiration and pure ATTITUDE that we felt recording this interview.Yvonne's projects:Magic Moments, a documentary about Roxanne LowitSeven WomenFind us on Instagram!Show: @theythoughtiwasyouBecca: @beccarothLani: @laniharmsYvonne: @YvonneScioThoughts/questions?
