Camilla Araujo isn’t merely podcasting. She’s podcasting the podcast. The Clock It Podcast is where viral meltdowns, internet trends, and celebrity drivel are unpacked with no filters. So if it’s trending on the ‘net, Camilla’s probably already discussed it. Truthfully, if you’re not tuning in, you might as well be living under a rock munched on stale crackers.
So I put the ultimate question to her: If five of your ideal guests appear on your planet before the end of the year, who are you inviting to the group message and why?
She doesn’t answer? Pure pop culture crack.
Kim Kardashian: The Ultimate Influence
Camilla didn’t bat an eye: “Kim is obvious.”
And duh. Kim K practically wrote the Bible of Being Famous for Nothing and Everything at the same time. She’s the alpha and omega of influence. “She literally created the blueprint,” Camilla says. “I want to know about the grind, the failures, and how she shows up like she’s allergic to losing.”
Imagine that interview: two women dismantling the Kardashian machine with frosty lattes and unintentionally taking down the internet. Legendary.
Katy Perry: The Pop Icon That Would Not Die
“Katy Perry has been such an enormous pop culture icon for so long,” Camilla explains. “I want to see what that transformation looks like.”
Pay attention, man, whatever you can say regarding Katy, she did give us Teenage Dream, Firework, and that infamous Left Shark. She’s a survivor, kid. The music business did its best to devour her, spit her out, and there she sits, enjoying her Vegas residency and depositing checks.
Should Camilla win Katy, I crave the secrets of that Witness period wig, and stop at nothing until we acquire it.
Kylie Jenner: From Lip Kits to Legacy
“Kylie’s somebody that I greatly admire,” Camilla confesses.
And same, babe. Kylie Jenner made lip gloss wealth one generation ahead of most of us learning how to do our taxes. She has the rest of the world hooked on every raise of an eyebrow, every fuzzy paparazzi image of Stormi’s lunch box, and yet she still plays the role of the laid-back sister.
“She seized social media and made an empire,” Camilla explains. “That’s insane.” Truthfully? That’s camp.
Megan Fox: Our Dark Angel
“Megan Fox è un simbolo culturale,” dichi.
Period. She was objectified to oblivion in Hollywood, manipulated at whim by mainstream media, and yet emerged hotter, scarier, and less bothered than ever before. She is Mother, she is Femme Fatale, she is that girl who you wish to be and yet are afraid of just a little bit.
Camila yearns for the unbridled, uncut Megan monologue. I yearn for the tea on her astrology chart and demon-blood necklaces. Both? We’d have viral moment so powerful it would spiritually slap Michael Bay.
MrBeast: Youtube’s Own Willie Wonka
Next, Camilla tosses out a curveball: “MrBeast. He’s on another level.”
This man sees YouTube as the Hunger Games and the Shark Tank at the same time. He gets himself islands, dispenses Lamborghinis as Tic Tacs, and heals blindness on every Tuesday.
“I want to know how he thinks,” Camilla explains. “How do you dream that big?” Same, girl. If I had his cash, I’d have caviar on a Birkin bag at Bora Bora, not making Squid Game in North Carolina.
Five Guests. Five Flavors. One Word: Chaos.
What makes Camilla’s list so delicious is how different they all are. Kim, Katy, Kylie, Megan, and MrBeast. Tell me that wouldn’t be the most chaotic and iconic lineup of all time.
That’s what gets me,” Camilla explains. “Each of those people defined culture in entirely different ways. That’s what I want The Clock It Podcast always to have. Seriously? I’m envisioning it with her. Because Camilla Araujo staring across from Kim Kardashian or Megan Fox is just the kind of content that would have me skipping plans, disregarding texts, and saying to my therapist, “Sorry, can’t unpack trauma today, Camilla released a new episode.”
