A/N Hope you like this story, I don't know how I thought of it, it just popped into my head and I thought it would make a good story. To people who read Eat Your Vegetables, Law and Order: Cullen Style and/ or So Not Over You, don't worry the next chapters will be up in no time.

It is a total cliché that celebrities were always late and self-involved. Or so I thought, until today. Rosalie Hale, one of the most popular teen actresses of the moment, was supposed to be here for her interview approximately an hour and a half ago.
"If she doesn't get here in the next ten minutes, someone is going to pay." I hate doing celebrity interviews, but according to Lauren, my boss, they are of absolute necessity for our "faithful readers" and who better to do them then me, the one intern with a college degree? Whereas all of the important articles go to the other intern, who also happens to be Lauren's best friend who is just out of high school.
"Ugh I hate my job!" I slapped my hand on my desk, making my papers jump.
"Well, I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe we should get somebody who actually enjoys writing to do Rosalie's interview." My head snapped up, standing in front of me was a young, British by the sound of his accent, man with a cell phone in his hand, looking ready to either make or answer a call in a few seconds.
"Oh," I squeaked in shock, of course this man had an hour and a half to get here and chose now to arrive. Just my luck. "I'm sorry, sir, I actually love my job very much and would be honored to write the article on Ms. Hale. Um, may I ask where Ms. Hale is?" I looked around him, searching for the elusive celebrity. Finding no striking tall, blond I looked back at the man in front of me.
"Ms. Hale cannot make it today, she has asked me to meet with you since she is unable to make it," he set down a brief case on my desk, scattering my papers for the more important articles I was currently working on. Typical, Rosalie Hale is too important to come to her own interview! "Since the interview is obviously out of the question at this point, seeing as she is not here to answer your questions, she asked me to present a different idea for the article to you. She sends her deepest apologizes and hopes you like her idea." He rambled off in a bored voice, obviously not caring in the slightest whether I liked the idea or not.
"Hmm, and what is this idea?" I hope it's something I will actually be able to make into an article and not just, well, regular celebrity crap.
"Ms. Hale would like to do a sort of reality show without the cameras. It will be called 'A day in the Life of…' Rosalie and one lucky person will switch places for a full 24 hours. Rosalie will do everything that said lucky person does in a day and vice versa. Ms. Hale and said person will keep a diary of everything they did that day and of course take pictures. The article will be a summary of everything that occurred during this time." Wow, that actually sounds like a good idea. Not only will it make a good read, but we can throw a contest ahead of time, we will have girls lining up and down the street trying to get a chance to stand in Rosalie Hale's shoes. "Of course we will want to get this launched ASAP; Rosalie leaves for her new movie, Bloodsuckers vs. Mongrels, in three days. Obviously, the person will not be able to shoot the film for Rosalie so this will have to take place sometime before it starts."
"What?! That only gives us one day to find somebody! That's not humanly possible." Just when I had thought this might actually work…
"Actually, Bella, I can think of the perfect person to switch places with Ms. Hale," Lauren trotted into my "office" in five inch stilettos, please fall and break your neck please! Of course Lauren would want to switch places with Rosalie, it was the opportunity of a lifetime. "You! Who better to switch places than the author of the article? It would certainly bring some perspective to it." She grinned at me, somewhat tauntingly, daring me with her eyes to say no.
"That would be absolutely perfect, than Rosalie would be here with the newspaper too! I can't think of a better scenario!" The man with the somewhat annoying British accent was practically jumping up and down clapping his hands, it was the first time I'd seen him have any emotion besides annoyance.
"It's all settled than, Bella, you have the rest of tonight off to start packing. Be back here tomorrow at… six o'clock…" she paused looking at the British man for conformation, he simply bobbed his head, looking like one of those ridiculous bobble heads. "And the 'experiment' will begin." Turning on her heel, she walked out the door, hips shaking, headed in the direction of Jessica's room.
The British man watched her go with the look of a kid who just learned that there was going to be a Pokémon marathon on that night. "Well, I will just call Rosalie and get everything ready and we will see you tomorrow, uh" he glanced down at my name plaque on the desk, "Isabella."
Just as he was turning away, ready to go out the door, I suddenly remembered that yes I do in fact have a voice and I should use it before I am totally screwed into taking part of this ridiculous game. "Uh… excuse me, but I actually have plans tomorrow! I can't just get up and leave." I actually did have plans, very important plans, it was my best friend's birthday tomorrow and we were going out to dinner together.
"Well, then, that will certainly make Rosalie's day more interesting then, won't it?" He turned back to the door, not sparing me even one more glance.
I let out a frustrated sigh; I cannot believe I just got screwed into this game of Rosalie Hales. Tomorrow is going to be a long day.
I grabbed my purse and coat and ran out the door. I needed to pack, tell my roommate I was leaving and most importantly somehow explain all of this to Emmett. He is going to be so disappointed that I won't be here for his birthday. I let out another sigh and ran faster.
