Thanks to her partnership with Ryan Murphy, Emma Roberts has emerged as one of the ultimate on-screen mean girls. However, in her real life, Roberts is far less likely to make you cry, unless it’s tears of jealousy for her enviable style. Fortunately, for the month of December, Roberts has partnered with Covet Fashion as its first Covet Host. Starting today and into the month of January, you’ll be able to play as Emma Roberts in the app, styling her for a day in her life.

Yahoo Celebrity spoke to Roberts about her own personal style, that “surprise b*tch” meme, and, of course, we begged her to give us spoilers about the upcoming finale of Scream Queens.

Yahoo Celebrity: Tell me a little bit about this partnership with Covet Fashion.

Emma Roberts: Basically I’m Covet’s host for the month of December, and people can go on the app and dress me for all different kinds of occasions. It’s basically, they get to see a day in the life and also get to see my style and they get to pick from different pieces that I love and put them together on me the way they want to for different events. It’s anything from me getting coffee to me going to a red carpet event.

So if there’s a photo of you getting coffee and someone says, “Oh I love those shorts,” can they then find out how to get them?

ER: Yeah, exactly. Covet has so many brands, I think like over 150 brands on their app, and so you can pick from all different kinds of designers and brands and casual or dressy and also kind of get to see what I like to wear to all these different things so it’s a lot of fun.

As you’re doing this Covet gig this month, do you think that there is a particular style or piece that is going to be showing up on there a lot?

ER: For me, I love wearing jeans and t-shirts, and so they can kind of accessorize on that, like there’s a leather jacket that I love and, since I change my hair so much, there’s a really amazing side braid and then there’s short hair and then there’s longer hair, so it’s really fun, you can kind of play with the evolution of my style on there. You get to see what I like but put your own twist on it, which I think is what style is all about, really, is kind of taking from other people and then putting your own flair to it. The other day I was in a fitting and I put on this faux fur jacket and I was like, “I love it, but I feel like Chanel [her Scream Queens character], get it off me.“ And they were like, “OK, noted, no faux fur until the end of the year.” I was just like, “I can’t right now, I’m not ready.”

With social media, we’re in a new era of celebrity with stars being closer to their fans than ever, how do you maintain a healthy balance?

ER: I think it’s so cool that I can interact with my fans so immediately through Instgram, Twitter, and now with Covet. For me, I try to just use it for fun and for positive stuff. You know I definitely see negativity but I try not to look at it for that. That’s why something like Covet, it’s like if people want to interact with me and they like my style and they want to be a part of it, it’s because they want to, there’s not really a negative aspect to it which I like. For example, being on Scream Queens, I can literally be watching an episode live and see people’s reactions live on Twitter and I think in that regard it’s so cool because I work so hard on the show and so to get to see people, how much they love it, and they’re always talking about the fashion and the comedy, and asking really fun questions. So in that regard, it is really a cool time to be in this industry and get to be a part of it all.
