How Just Like Us Is Zooey Deschanel?
Zooey Deschanel proves she’s just like Us with her love for the holidays.
In the newest issue of Us Weekly, the New Girl alum, 44, exclusively shares that the last thing she ordered online was “Halloween costumes for my kids.” However, a group-costume theme is not in the cards for her family of four. (Deschanel shares her kids Elsie, 9, and Charlie, 7, with her ex-husband Jacob Pechenik.)
“They have their own opinions about what they want to be, and they won’t let me [interfere],” she explains, adding that she and her fiancé, Jonathan Scott, have “very different ideas about what a Halloween costume should be.”
She continues: “He goes really big and I go for humor. … So, we’re all being different things, but all what we enjoy, we love Halloween.”
While Deschanel doesn’t get a say in her family’s Halloween looks, she lent her creativity to help Vera Bradley launch their 2024 Winter/Holiday collection, which launched earlier this month.
“What’s cool about Vera Bradley is that they have all these beautiful, very high-end bags that are lovely velvet things that feel very fancy and special,” she tells Us. “And they also have really great practical everyday bags and backpacks and little pouches that you can organize stuff in, like travel things. Toiletry bags, I mean, they have so many things. So it is a really great place to shop for a lot of different holidays.”

Us: When was the last time you did laundry?
Deschanel: I do laundry all the time. I do my own stain removal. I’m obsessed with stain removal.
Us: What’s the one task that you tend to put off?
Deschanel: I hate unloading the dishwasher. Doesn’t everybody? It’s the worst. I don’t mind loading it. Loading is fine. Running it is fine. But if it’s clean and it’s in there, I’ll disappear. Jonathan usually will end up doing that.
Zooey Deschanel loves “being cozy” and watching movies on Christmas, but her 2003 hit Elf is not one of them. “I don’t watch myself in anything,” Deschanel, 44, exclusively told Us Weekly while promoting her partnership with Vera Bradley for its Winter/Holiday collection. “I feel like that might be narcissistic of me.” The actress revealed […]
Us: What movie do you watch during the holidays — Elf?
Deschanel: Meet Me in St. Louis is a favorite of mine. I don’t watch myself in anything. I feel like that might be narcissistic. I think Jonathan used to watch Elf every year before we met, but if someone has me on a TV, I’m probably running asway.
Us: What board games do you like to play?
Deschanel: I love Monopoly and Balderdash. I love playing games, but I’m not competitive. I find it really weird when people are competitive about games.
Us: What’s your favorite song to sing in the shower?
Deschanel: I don’t sing in the shower. I sing outside the shower.
Us: What was the last show that you streamed?
Deschanel: [The HBO MAX docuseries] Chimp Crazy. I did fall asleep. That’s my problem. Chimp Crazy — check it out. It’s really weird.

Us: Who is your favorite Real Housewives star?
Deschanel: My girl Crystal [Kung Minkoff] isn’t on Beverly Hills anymore, but she’s my friend, so she was my favorite. … I mean there’s so many icons. Beverly Hills, I mean, I loved the days when Kyle [Richards] and Lisa Vanderpump were on together. I know that they’re not friends anymore, but I love watching those two together.
