Christina Ricci and Conan O’Brien had a nostalgic chat on the talk show Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend, reminiscing about their past encounters and shared experiences. The conversation started with Conan mentioning how impressed he was with Christina’s deadpan delivery as Wednesday Addams in the Adams Family movie when she was just 15 years old. Conan admitted feeling a bit intimidated by her talent and recalled living in the same New York City building with Christina.
The building they referred to was the police building, which has a fascinating history. Conan mentioned reading about a tunnel connecting the building to O’Neal’s in the novel The Alienist, which piqued his interest in living there. Unfortunately, the tunnel turned out to be non-existent, but the building itself still held a certain allure.
During their time as neighbors, Christina and Conan brushed shoulders with several other notable personalities. Kyle Mccclaclin and his then-girlfriend, supermodel Linda Evangelista, were residents in the same building. Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber, as well as Christy Turlington, also called the police building their home.
Conan fondly recalled an elevator encounter with Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber, where they radiated beauty and even shared a romantic moment during the short ride. This incident left Conan with the anticipation of finding love someday, as he looked back on his younger self wearing an unflattering t-shirt and shorts with acne-ridden skin.
Christina, on the other hand, admitted to having her own style phase during her teenage years. She embraced a “garbage pale kids” fashion, donning conflicting colors, oversized pants, and even men’s underwear. Despite her unconventional style, Conan reassured her that she was just a normal teenager experiencing self-image issues.
The conversation between Christina Ricci and Conan O’Brien was filled with nostalgia and lighthearted banter, providing viewers with a delightful glimpse into their shared past. It was a reminder that even celebrities, like Christina and Conan, have their own insecurities and memorable experiences.
