_________________________________________

It’s hard being a teenage girl. And even harder if you’re focused, driven, and a high-achiever like Paris with only one goal in mind - Harvard. Paris believes that her prestigious, elite private school, Chilton Academy will help her get there. 

But when college acceptance letters arrive, she’s shocked. What happens later that evening at the Chilton bicentennial is… well, pretty disastrous. 

Today, on Gabbing Gilmore, sisters Jackie and Catherine dig into a Gilmore Girls moment that is simultaneously cringey, heartbreaking, and witty. In short, a train wreck that we can’t NOT gape at! 

We discuss:

• Why this moment was so difficult for Paris
• Whether it was really tied to her sex life or not (why did she actually use the word sl%t) 
• How other characters could have done better - we’re looking at you, Headmaster Charleston and Richard Gilmore!
• How Paris’s bedroom gave us clues about her inevitable breakdown
• Whether her infamous interview could have been avoided….

… and more!
