About Bettie:
I remembered her image vaguely from magazines and such seen
years ago but it was only last year when I got into Bettie in
a serious way. It seems such an integral part of me now that
I cannot recall how or why I came to so eagerly search for all
those Bettie Page web sites on the school computer everyday.
But I know that I fell instantly and helplessly in love. Bettie's
appeal, for me, is hard to pin down to one thing - those cute
expressions, genuine smile, perfect poses, outfits, her exuberance,
that she was a strong and independent woman in the 1950's, that
she never regretted her career, that body, the hair... I can't
collect my thoughts enough to start! My obsession quickly escalated.
I was scouring for pictures everywhere, phoning places selling
vintage porn, getting back issues of magazines. Soon I had bought
Life of a Pin-Up Legend, cut a fringe and grew my black hair
long. Although I am still a novice in the world of Bettie fandom
I feel like a true fan now. Seeing Bettie makes me happy; I
can't help smiling and squealing with excitement when I see
my favourite pictures.
