Mark Wright, the 36-year-old TV presenter, recently shared his surprising encounter with Kim Kardashian during an interview on the ‘Saving Grace’ podcast. Wright, who interviewed Kim while working for ‘Extra’ in Los Angeles, expressed his admiration for the reality star, describing her as approachable and friendly. He was amazed when Kim arrived for the interview on her own, without a team or entourage. Wright recalled how she sat with him for about 20 minutes, engaging in a casual conversation about life, his family, and his background. He praised Kim for her down-to-earth nature and her ability to instantly recognize him in subsequent encounters.
In addition to Kim Kardashian, Wright has also interviewed Kim’s friend Paris Hilton on multiple occasions and described her as a ‘nice lady’. He acknowledged that Hilton’s success is a testament to her intelligence. Despite his extensive experience interviewing celebrities, Wright admitted feeling ‘proper weird’ when he randomly spotted Jennifer Aniston in a bar. However, he emphasized that during interviews, he doesn’t typically get star-struck.
While Wright has interviewed numerous celebrities throughout his career, there are four notable figures he has yet to interview: Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Leonardo DiCaprio. He expressed his desire to meet and interview these ‘famous four’ someday, considering it a significant milestone in his career.
Although Wright gained recognition through his appearance on the reality TV show ‘The Only Way Is Essex’, he stated that he wouldn’t want a docu-series about his own life. He explained that he left ‘TOWIE’ after only 10 months because he struggled with the idea of creating dramatic moments in his personal life for the sake of the show.
Mark Wright’s interview shed light on his experiences with various celebrities and his admiration for Kim Kardashian’s genuine and approachable nature. Despite his success in the entertainment industry, he remains humble and focused on his career goals. As he continues to make a name for himself as a TV presenter, Wright hopes to eventually interview the ‘famous four’ and further expand his portfolio of celebrity interviews.
