Wondering where Jonathan Cheban has been since his last mention here in 2012? We asked him, for The Daily Summer.
Have you been spending a lot of time in the Hamptons this summer?
I have! I’m going on a tour in September to promote Dishh.com, my gossip site about young Hollywood. We had seven million people on the site this month. We’re going on a 25-city tour, doing appearances at schools. My face is going to be on the bus. It’s the kind of luxury bus that Ozzy Osbourne would use.
Thoughts on Montauk?
It’s not my scene. Everyone tries to con me into going out there, but I can’t get into it. It’s a little too grassroots for me. The Hamptons is luxury, and I like to keep it that way. If I wanted to go to Montauk, I’d start going to upstate New York. There are no Jersey guidos, but it’s like a frat party.
You went to the Jersey Shore on Keeping Up With The Kardashians!
Kim and I went to Seaside. The only thing that New Jersey and the Hamptons have in common is that the houses are made of wood.
Are you totally done with PR?
I’ve been done with PR for years. It drives me crazy when people associate me with PR. It’s like calling me a doctor.
How’s the love life?
It’s good! I’m on and off again with this girl from Florida.
Did you know about the Caitlyn’s Vanity Fair cover beforehand?
I didn’t. I was with Kim when it came out and we were having lunch at ABC Kitchen. I was shocked! She’s gorgeous.
Kim is bigger than ever. Are you surprised?
No It feels amazing to be a part of the Kardashian machine. I’m a cartoon in her game, which is so cool.
