DuJour is the latest magazine to interview Melania Trump.
Melania Trump has done another interview with a glossy magazine -- this one with the luxury-lifestyle book DuJour - and again, the former model-turned-aspiring-first-lady managed to reveal very little in the nearly 5,000-word profile.
Wait, no, here's something! She doesn't like Starbucks!
"I drink coffee, but I don't drink Starbucks," she tells reporter Mickey Rapkin. "My son likes it, the what do you call it? The Frappuccino? He likes that."
This is what qualifies as a bombshell revelation when it comes to Melania Trump, who, as a candidate's wife has posed for Harpers Bazaar and given only a handful of interviews. But this evidence that the candidate's wife is out of touch with Venti-guzzling American is probably not much of a scandal-igniter, because did we really think that a Slovenian-born model and wife of a mogul who lives in a penthouse decorated in Louis XIV-by-way-of-Vegas style was just like us?
And later in the profile, there's another moment where Trump displays her one-percenter credo. As she's recalling her pre-Donald modeling days and her modest $2,500-a-month apartment, Rapkin asks how she decorated back then. "She thinks about this for a second before she finally remembers the name of the store. 'I went to Crate & Barrel,' she says. 'Does that still exist or no?'"
Otherwise, Trump sticks to the lines we've heard before - that she speaks her mind around her husband, that she stays very informed about politics even though she's rarely involved in the campaign. But she does weigh in - sort of - on a recent campaign-trail flap, when MSNBC host Chris Matthews was caught on a hot mic admiring her.
"I'm not only a beauty, I'm smart. I have brains. I'm intelligent," she says. "I would just say, men will be men."
