Josh Madden: Celebrity DJ & Stylist
Wednesday, February 2, 2011 at 12:30PM
Meet Josh Madden.
He's a music producer, remixer and DJ. He is also the co-founder of DCMA COLLECTIVE clothing line with brothers Benji and Joel (of Good Charlotte); and co-founder of West Hall Media, a new marketing company.
The Washington, D.C.-area native currently lives in NYC and styles Good Charlotte, The Static Jacks, Freelance Whales, Pierce Brosnan, Metro Station and White Tie Affair. He also works with the Kangol, Ben Sherman and House of Cassette clothing lines.
Lucky us, he's coming to our Nation's Capital this Friday night.
Even luckier, we recently had the chance to get to know him a little better in NYC -- and he did a Glittarazzi Q&A for us. ...
What cause(s) do you support?
"Well a couple years ago I met Nigel Barker and he invited me to be involved with his work with the Humane Society. I've become good buddies with him and all the HSUS people so I stay pretty involved with all causes related to ending animal cruelty. We've been all around the world, it's awesome!"
What was your favorite game as a child?
"I didn't play a lot of games, not really into video games and stuff ... always art and music. My brothers, sister and I had some epic Monopoly games that lasted days on end, those were rad."
Do you cook? If so, what's your favorite thing to make?
"I'm an amazing cook! I'm most proficient in the breakfast/brunch category ... I've worked in a bunch of restaurants and I worked construction so I'm a solid cook and I'm a legit handyman."
What is your favorite song to play right now?
"I like dropping The Knocks' 'Dancing with the DJ' just because I want everyone to hear it and I love those dudes. ... Also, Ducksauce stuff, Junior Sanchez tracks, Steve Aoki's stuff ... those are all buddies of mine so it feels good to see people bug out to their stuff. Alsooo ... RAD OMEN!!!
Who is your celeb crush?
"Hands down, Tina Fey. ... I'd really like to expound, for your entertainment, but it would get awkward so I'm gonna leave it at that."
What is your favorite thing to do in DC?
"My friend, Spike, has two restaurants right next to each other. ... I like to get a bunch of friends together and go to We, the Pizza then go out! Going to the 9:30 Club is always like being at home, I used to work there, I love it there."
Thank you, Josh, for this fab Q&A ... see you Friday!
