Joey Tierney: From Rags to Riches 05/02/2022

Joey Tierney: From Rags to Riches Joey Tierney is a f****** boss. Remember when your parents used to tell you to never judge a book by its cover? Well, Joey Tierney is the perfect example of that book. If you had told us that Joey's childhood was anything like we came to found out it was, we would've probably never believed you. After growing up in the system (yes, this blonde hair blue-eyed fashionista grew up in an orphanage) she forced the court system to let her travel to New York when she was a teenager thanks to a ticket a high school boyfriend surprised her with. After spending some time in Los Angeles, Joey got connected with someone in Britney Spear's crew, and was offered a job styling Britney's backup dancers on tour. She became Britney's wing woman, and went on from Britney to style celebrities like Paris Hilton, Seth Green, Emily VanCamp and more. Just because you grew up with a traumatic childhood doesn't mean your destiny is based on that. /episode/index/show/thisislifepodcast/id/22980185
