The 27-year-old daughter of Caroline Kennedy and Edwin Schlossberg co-launched End Times Girls Club with her friend Mara Nelson-Greenberg, and the six-episode web series from Above Average was actually inspired by Rose's time at New York University
'It came up as a response to seeing the way that New York responded to Hurricane Sandy, and how people were grossly underprepared — specifically, girls in damsel in distress mode,' she told Mashable of the venture.

Doomsday: Rose and Mara play the roles of Bee and Lara, respectively, two vloggers who are teaching female viewers how to survive the apocalypse
'I thought it would be interesting to create this world where girls have to be survivalists without compromising their cute factor.'
In the short webisodes, Rose and Mara play the roles of Bee and Lara, respectively, two vloggers who are teaching viewers how to do everything from a 'fun new way to start a fire after the apocalypse' to making mascara using nothing but 'ashes and plain old auto grease'.
'I am not a huge fan of make-up myself, but there are real benefits to looking good post-doomsday,' Rose's character says in the clip entitled Apocalypse Makeover. 'For example you will want people to invite you into their bunker.'
Rose, who is the eldest grandchild of Jacqueline and former US President John F. Kennedy, has her grandmother's same brunette locks, delicate smile, wide set eyes, and slender frame.
Political dynasty: Rose can be seen sitting in between her brother Jack and her father Edwin at a ceremony to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the visit of President John F Kennedy in New Ross, Ireland, in 2103
However, the web series sees her donning messy ponytails, casual T-shirts, jeans, and a pair of baggy camouflage pants, which is a far cry from Jackie O's classic style.
The web series is a part of the online comedy distributor Above Average Productions, which is the digital sector of Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels' company Broadway Video.
'We are big comedy fans, and I think Broadway Video has the best record in the comedy world for making stuff,' Rose told Mashable. 'It's an environment that enables creators, so it’s been a great fit.'
The brunette beauty, who was named after JFK's mother, was close to her grandmother andwas only a month shy of her sixth birthday when the former First Lady died of lymphoma.
Formal event: Although she often keeps a low profile, Rose attended the 2014 Kennedy Center Honors in Washington, D.C. with her younger sister Tatiana

Rose was also left devastated by the loss of her uncle John F. Kennedy Jr. in 1999 after the airplane he was flying crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.
After she graduated from the The Brearley School, an all-girls private school in New York City's Upper East Side, Rose attended Harvard University, where she studied English and film.
Although Rose comes from a political dynasty, her grandmother Jackie was a patron of the arts and a lover of literature, spending her later years working as a book editor in New York City.
However, unlike her siblings, who both attended Yale, she has remained out of the spotlight in recent years and attends few public events.
Historic legacy: Rose is the oldest grandchild of Jackie and John F. Kennedy. The Kennedy's are pictured with their children Caroline and John in 1963
Despite her new web series, Rose barely has a presence on social media, which may be the result of Gawker publishing some of her private photos when she was a freshman in college.
While Rose's 25-year-old sister Tatiana is a writer for the New York Times, her 23-year-old brother Jack is following in his family's footsteps and looking to pursue a career in politics.
Although she has skipped many of the high profile events honoring her grandfather, Rose joined her sister at the 2014 Kennedy Center Honors.
The brunette beauty, who was dubbed 'Jackie 2.0' by the New York Post in 2010, donned a classic knee-length black dress and heels for the event, but it was her poufy brunette bob, delicate facial features, and red lacquered lips that made her look like a spitting image of her grandmother that night.
What a great post. She does keep a low profile and she is very pretty. I don't think she looks that much like Jackie but does have that petite look and is more feminine than her large lunky sister. They are all high achievers in that family and it is great to see another up and coming Kennedy headed for politics.
ReplyDeleteYou know Caroline is only 58 but she looks about 75. Great job PIC. I really enjoyed it.
Luv PIC
Thank you ever so much .
DeleteIn Rose early years at Harvard University she was a bit of a wild child , the Gawker published some of her private photos and she dripped out the public eye.
Rose has the square cheek bone like Jackie and Rose is also a brunette .
None of the Kennedy women age well , take a look at Maria , Arnold's wife . She looks like she was run over by a beer truck .
Thank you
Love PIC
