Celebrilarity

Dita Von Teese graces the new cover of Inked magazine. She looks stunning as usual. The cover says: The Notorious Dita Von Teese. Just one question: Why Inked magazine does interviews with celebrities who barely have any tattoos?

We’ve lost yet another great 20th century icon. Without women like Bettie Page, who dared to be different all those decades ago, there would be no pinup or burlesque revival. I’ll never forget the first time I saw her unforgettable and unusual pinup image. She had a special way of combining erotic fetishism and pinup playfulness with a little wink of the eye. She certainly inspired me.

I wanted to do the young Hollywood hipster cool chick look, so I wore a blond wig, skinny jeans, and chic gold Christian Louboutin sandals. I had on a little T-shirt and a Louis Vuitton neck wrap, and I had my friend do my makeup exactly the way he does it for Victoria Beckham and all those celebrities who love beige lipstick. I was all bronzed-I felt like I had on, like, 50 layers of base-with more makeup on than I normally do. It was disgusting. I couldn’t wait to get it off. I spent the whole night completely incognito-some of my friends didn’t recognize me at first. Paparazzi were waving me out of pictures. People were like, “Who’s this girl not wearing a costume? She’s a real asshole.” It was genius. I’m going to do it every Halloween. I’m already planning which normal girl I’m going to be next year.
