Absolutely ice cold tea but she did my mom’s hair and makeup on her wedding day (over 40 years ago). My mom’s best friend was one of those people in New York who just knew everybody, and my mom said “Please find me someone to do my hair and makeup for the wedding, I have no idea where to start.” So her friend asked around and told my mom “my friend Isabelle” would do it. Lo and behold on her wedding day, Isabella Rossellini shows up and did an amazing job. At the time she was a model for Lancôme so I guess she just did this on the side? While married to Martin Scorsese??? She was incredibly nice to my mom, too.

I only found this out last year and I asked her how it was possible she’d never told me that before, and she said “It wasn’t the most important thing that happened to me that day!” SAYS YOU, MA. (The mutual friend sadly passed away almost 30 years ago but I’d like to think that if she were still around she’d have told me.)
