Hey, cutie. Just wanted to let you know that this story originally ran in our June issue, so if you like what you see, you should probably snag a hard copy ASAP. Bye!


You probably know Carly Rae Jepsen best from that little song called "Call Me Maybe" that was on every single playlist you made in 2012, but in the seven years since then, she's been creating bops like "Party for One" and "Boy Problems."

In honor of her fourth album Dedicated (out today!), and because we're Cosmopolitan, we caught up with the singer to ask her about what she keeps in her nightstand.

My overall nightstand vibe:

Messy-like the scene in Friends where Monica has that one embarrassing closet full of random stuff.

The most unusual items in there rn:

Massage oil and a ball for working out kinks in my back.

What's on top:

Candles, reading glasses, and Weleda Renewing Night Cream.

I probs wouldn't want my mom to find...

If I didn't want my mom to find it, I probably shouldn't write it in a magazine!

Sleep masks-yay or nay?

On the plane, definite yay. For home life, nay.

What about snacks?

I did find some Cheetos in there the other day.

Books by the bed:

I like to flip through either poetry or old period pieces. Anything that helps me get out of my own head for a second before going to sleep. Leonard Cohen's Book of Longing has probably been there the longest.

What I steal from my partner's nightstand:

His is pretty empty.

My alarm sitch:

It's set to a Dev Hynes song called "With Him." It's a gentle way to start the morning instead of the usual "beep beep beep."
