AFM: It’s no secret that you love Audrey Hepburn and that you look up to her as your idol. What about her and her career inspires you? 

LB: Well, first of all, I am a big fan of old movies, and I love studying the history of film. She is a star and the focal point in a lot of those movies such as “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” “Charades” and “Sabrina” and she was an icon at that time. To be able to watch her and there was no one like her at that time and a lot of actresses at the time were gaining a lot from her which is something that is pretty cool. She's an icon, and I look up to her a lot. Personally, her fashion and everything about her is something I’ve always idolized and I’ve always looked up to her. I think she’s amazing. 

AFM: I know you've had a busy day, and I don't want to keep you for too long so I have one more question for you. On Instagram, you state how you much you love "brunch and musicals.” Any favorite brunch spots you're excited about going to while you're back home for the Star-Studded Sunday event? 

LB: Oh—my—gosh, I honestly don't know. My mom will probably be better answering this than I am. There are a ton! I honestly can’t wait to probably try new places while I’m there. I don't know if I can think of any off the top of my head.

AFM: Yes, there are a ton of new and amazing brunch spots to try while you're in town, so no worries there. 

Landry: I don't know what it is, but I really love brunch so any place that serves good pancakes will be good for me.

Be sure to catch Landry at the Star-Studded Sunday event in Scottsdale on Sept. 10 and for her appearance in the third season of the Netflix Series, “Fuller House,” appearing Sept. 22!
