Why Do Chloe Sevigny and Peaches Geldof Hate Each Other?

Chloe Sevigny recently did an interview with Playboy where she dissed socialite Peaches Geldof for being largely useless, and now Peaches is fighting back on Twitter and hinting that Chloe’s beef with her is over something more personal.

Here’s what Chloe said about Peaches in the interview:

PLAYBOY: In a 1994 Jay McInerney New Yorker article you were crowned the “It girl” and “the coolest girl in the world.” Did having style help or hurt?

SEVIGNY: I guess it helped more than anything else. I’m glad I grew up during the last vestige of cool, in the 1990s, when everything wasn’t blogged and on the Interwebs, when things were more on the downlow and underground. I guess I am stylish, but I would rather have people come up and say “I really liked your performance in this or that” than “I really like the way you dress.” That irks me. Anyway, the term It girl gets used too loosely.

PLAYBOY: How do you mean?

SEVIGNY: Today the term is used to describe, say, Peaches Geldof—a girl who doesn’t do anything but is just sort of around. The original It girl was the 1920s movie star Clara Bow; then, in the 1960s, with Edie Sedgwick and Warhol, It girls turned into socialites, ladies of leisure—people who had “it” just for being “fabulous.” But Edie was just a rich drug addict, and when I got called the It girl everyone thought I was that too. I looked like a junkie because it was the 1990s and grunge was the fashion. But I felt I was doing stuff, not just being a socialite.

A little mean, but whatever. Peaches should be used to those kind of remarks by now, and if she’s not, then she should probably find something better to do with her time beside date Eli Roth and have her photo taken, right? But instead of taking the high road, Peaches turned to her Twitter and wrote Chloe a public note:

Innnnnnnnnnteresting. So Peaches is claiming that Chloe’s issue has nothing to do with that whole “being useless” thing I mentioned earlier. It’s over someone or something with the initials MM. Micky Mouse? Michael Moore? Is it me, Molly McAleer? God, I hope so.

These two totally hang around similar circles and have most likely shared everything from men to designer dresses. The fact that there’s personal weirdness between the two of them comes as no surprise…So who/what do we think this mysterious MM is?
