“Everybody Is Drunk as Fuck”: A Quick Cig With Alex Consani at Her 21st Birthday

WEDNESDAY 12:30 AM JULY 24, 2024 LOWER EAST SIDE

Last night, for the latest installment of Smoke Break, we lit up a skinny cig with the viral queen and supermodel Alex Consani at her 21st birthday bash. Downtown hotties and club kids pumped down to the basement at LES pub The Flower Shop for the “XXXtra fabulous”-themed soirée, where the open bar and a packed lineup of DJs had the girls feeling spicy and grown. Before hopping on a party bus to JFK for her Turks birthday trip, she stepped out to give us a fit check, share her goals for the year, and tell us why she isn’t trashing her fake ID just yet. Well, yes!

CHLOE SHAAR: Okay, let’s do a nasty little interview.

ALEX CONSANI: Let’s get nasty.

SHAAR: What day is it?

CONSANI: It’s my mother fucking birthday. It’s July 23rd, first day of Leo season, first day of Alex Consani being 21 years old. Having my first drink ever. Ooh!

SHAAR: What’s the drink?

CONSANI: A spicy margarita, boots. 

SHAAR: Okay, spicy.

CONSANI: Tequila.

SHAAR: That’s how you do it. How do you feel?

CONSANI: I’m here with all of my friends, we’re at The Flower Shop downtown right now, which is the vibe. Everybody here is drunk as fuck.

SHAAR: How do you feel being 21?

CONSANI: I feel good. I feel like nothing’s changed except now I can do it without a fake ID.

SHAAR: Is she in the trash or is she in the wallet?

CONSANI: I have two. That was an investment, so I’m trying to keep it.

PARTIER: Happy birthday, Alex!

CONSANI: Yes, thank you! I don’t know who that was but…

SHAAR: I don’t know either, but we lit. It’s New York. Everyone knows it’s your birthday. What are we wearing tonight?

CONSANI: So I’m in Gabriel Held Vintage. A vintage Versace top, I don’t know what the skirt is, but I’m wearing a crocodile Birk and latex new season Ferragamo.

SHAAR: She’s a fashion girl, for real.

CONSANI: I’m trying, girl. I mean. I could’ve come in my two-piece Madhappy pajamas. No shade. I got a lot. But tonight I’m trying to give a little more slut.

SHAAR: What is this year going to hold for you? What are you conquering?

CONSANI: This year is about seeing the girls that are here today, the people that inspire me and my muses, in the same position that I am, of not having to worry about the stupid things in life and being grateful and safe and happy.

SHAAR: It’s kind of a crazy week to turn 21.

CONSANI: It’s only Tuesday.

SHAAR: But the whole week has been giving… I’ll just say coconuts.

CONSANI: A lot of coconuts falling from the tree, and I’m one of them.

SHAAR: And you’re one of them.

CONSANI: I didn’t crack, though. These balls are still intact.

SHAAR: What else are you doing tonight?

CONSANI: Well, I mean, I’m just going to be outside. I’m going to Turks and Caicos with my closest friends.

SHAAR: My closest friends.

CONSANI: Bitch, get on that flight. But it boards at 5 a.m. 

SHAAR: Tomorrow?

CONSANI: Tonight.

SHAAR: Honey!

CONSANI: Right. There’s a party bus waiting outside with my suitcases on it. Party bus to JFK is the vibe.

SHAAR: We got to do a new ciggy. Wait, what are you smoking?

CONSANI: I’m smoking a Capri cigarette. It’s giving French, but we’re in New York City, so this is what we get. Oui.

SHAAR: Oui.

CONSANI: Point finale. Do you know what point finale means? It’s “period” in French.

SHAAR: Wait, point finale?

CONSANI: That’s what I ask when I be at fashion weeks. I’m like, “How do you say period in your language?”

SHAAR: Can you say it in any other languages?

CONSANI: They don’t say period in Italian because they’re fucking lame. 

[Recording pauses]

SHAAR: And we resume. New ciggy.

CONSANI: Exactly. New bitch, new cigarette. I’m so happy you came, girl. The bar’s open for another hour.

SHAAR: Oh, and I’m drinking for free.

CONSANI: That was the vibe. I was like, I can’t have the girls out here in the Lower East Side paying for drinks. Like, the baddest bitches are my friends and these bitches really just be getting free drinks. That’s what we do in our free time, go out and find ways to get free drinks. And if that’s Alex Consani’s 21st birthday party, then thank you Gotham.

SHAAR: And that’s it.

CONSANI: Thank you David Yurman. Thank you all for coming. Besos. I’ll see you inside.
