These days, even internships at glamorous workplaces like magazines and fashion houses are so sought-after that you practically have to be a celebrity to get one. Ashley Olsen interned at Zac Posen while attending NYU, and sister Mary-Kate interned for photographer Annie Leibowitz. And you can’t forget about Sean Avery’s ‘internship’ at Vogue. And now another celebrity kid is taking a spot an actual journalism major would kill for: Frances Bean Cobain is interning at Rolling Stone for the summer. So how is Frances doing as an intern?
Page Six reports that Frances is not very popular with the other interns at Rolling Stone. They quote several ‘insiders’ who say “she doesn’t get coffee for anyone . . . calls in sick all the time and wears funny outfits.”
Are interns even allowed to call in sick?
I guess this is what happens when you allow not only a celebrity, but a 15-year old-celebrity, to be an intern. Maybe this is why Teen Vogue banned high school interns.
