It helps to start the morning off by just talking about what everyone downloaded in the last 12 hours and if there’s any entertainment news it would be helpful to share.”ġ2:00 PM: “From 10 AM to midday I’m typically in the office. Talent ideation is such a huge part of our business. With the team we discuss any high-level celebrity entertainment news and then what’s on the action list for our clients. I mean we’re talking chicken breasts, rice, vegetables, like a full situation is happening.”ġ0:00 AM: “I’m in the office by 10 AM. It was really Janine, my chef, who got me eating properly and well-balanced meals. I know it’s kind of eye-rolling to say but I felt that I was at a point where I needed that intervention. I used to be really skinny-if you look at some of my Spin Crowd photos you can see that I was very skinny. It’s hysterical.”ĩ:00 AM: “I have a chef that’s been cooking for me for seven years. First thing she’ll say to me in the morning is ‘Can you believe Kim’s Contour Kit sold out in 14 minutes?’ You wouldn’t think that Marjorie knows what’s going on. She’s so funny-you wouldn’t think of Marjorie as a pop culture junkie. Marjorie and I do this every day Monday through Friday. I need to hear what the person is saying. We’re also old-school-we love landline to landline. Marjorie and I have been friends forever and we love our daily debriefs. In the past 24 hours have there been any entertainment news that would pertain to our clients? An up-and-coming star? A new endorsement that was announced? Any sort of news that would pertain to the programs that we’re working on, I would flag and then I would share in our staff meeting a little bit later in the day.”ħ:30 AM: “I have a standing phone call with one of my best friends, Marjorie Gubelmann. Normally, I would read through between three and four newspapers to see what’s going on in the world. Then I pick up the newspaper, I head back, and I work from home typically until 10:30-11 AM. I’ve been having the same drink for 10 years: a quad soy latte. I am able to go through emails, I am able to respond to things because no one else in New York City is awake.” 5:15 AM: “First thing I do when I wake up is I go to Starbucks. But between 5 AM and 8 AM it’s my most productive time. You know, if you ask any of my friends, they all tease me. When I was in high school, I used to be able to push it to 7 AM, but I’ve been waking up at 5 for the past ten years and I have grown to love it. Spoiler alert: There ’s a full “lunch ” at 9 am involved.ĥ:00 AM: “I am a scary-early riser. We wanted to know exactly what a day in the life of a high-profile publicist in the inner circle of the Kardashians really looks like, and Huck kindly shared. We’re seeing a lot of brands focus more of their energy and allocate more resources towards these up-and-coming digital stars who are really able to convert their fans into brand fans, which is something that is changing the way that we are doing business.” See what we mean? Most recently, he rebranded it into a full-fledged entertainment agency, Command Entertainment Group, which, he explains, “helps brands connect with celebrities and influencers, from strategy to activation to execution. By 2010, he was partner at Command PR (alongside Cheban) and acquired the entire business in 2012. You see, Huck landed in New York City right after graduating from Queen’s University in Canada to intern under Lizzie Grubman, before quickly moving up the ranks in Grubman and Cheban’s merged PR agency, Grubman/Cheban. Sure, while his OOO is hardly one us mere mortals can relate to, his 9-to-5 is real business. You’ve also seen him as a regular fixture on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and, if we’re going back, on E!’s PR-reality show, Spin Crowd, alongside friend and former business partner Jonathan Cheban. You’ve seen Simon Huck riding camel-back with Kourtney Kardashian between Egyptian pyramids, lounging on yachts with Kendall Jenner in the French Riviera, and elbow-to-elbow with Kim Kardashian at pretty much any notable event she’s attended.
