Time to time, we’ve had some fun poking at the glorious legend that is Washington’s own Kelly Ann Collins, but, in the end, we always crave her quirky wit and classic allure. Graciously, the vivacious vixen recently sat down for an exclusive BHDC interview to fill us in on all things KAC. While she’s still got a mischievous glow that’ll never die, we were quite surprised when she decided to reveal a more serious side to her fans. Enjoy:

BHR: Several people have been asking me where you are, and I keep telling them that you’re busy workin’ it. Is that true?

KAC: I’m always on the go, as usual.

BHR: So, the old blog is on hiatus, but you’re toiling away at Revolution Health? What’s that about?

KAC: Club Rev is where it’s at … I update it daily. Check it out: https://www.revolutionhealth.com/blogs/kelly/. I’m still at STYLE mag, too:

BHR: Are we reading a censored KAC on the Rev blog?

KAC: You’re reading a different side of KAC at Club Rev. Did you know I used to be a hardcore news gal? I was with USATODAY.com for Columbine, Kosovo, the JFK, Jr., crash. (It was called USA Today Interactive back then, I was there during the rise of the dotcom.) I also used to work undercover as an investigative journalist, have run a few companies (two newspapers, PR firm and a Web development company) and have won several press association awards. There are many things you don’t know about me, my dear.

BHR: Oh, I always knew you are hardcore, but some people have an impression of you as not much more than a party girl - DC’s Lindsay Lohan. What would you say to them?

KAC: Hmm. I’d say they need to loosen up. I realize that life is short. Watching my grandmother — who was my best friend — die from cancer was completely painful. I feel sad that she is gone, but lucky to be healthy and surrounded by wonderful people. Believe it or not, I used to be pretty uptight. All business. My grandmother always told me I needed to let my hair down and have more fun. She was right. I was missing out. So now I try to help others as much as I can while living my life to its fullest, in her honor.

BHR: Well said, KAC. How did that rumor get started that you are mad at me? Are you mad at me?

KAC: No idea…I don’t have time for baby games. It probably had something to do with a conversation you had with Jessica Cutler that was posted on some blogs? Someone sent a link to me, but I didn’t have time to read the whole thing. Don’t believe everything you hear — or read. The blogosphere (and the WWW for that matter) can be a crazy place.

BHR: Oh, do I know it. Until we meet again, my dear, keep your chin up and one high heel in front of the other.
