They are Amber and Nisha from the UK, they are dj's who also work for a vintage clothing company and who dress up for their radio show and put all sorts of cool pinup-type pictures on their myspace

 

Their youtube link for the song "Black Cat"

 

And their page for the Q radio show (scroll down to see brilliant pics and find out more about them, they're so good!)

I just love her.

 

The other day Mzee posted a link to a clip from In The Good Old Summertime, and it reminded me of how awesome she was at her peak:

V for Vendetta

V for Vendetta monologue (as recited by V)

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villian by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengence; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."

Love this. I keep wanting to take burlesque classes... I've already posted photos of some of my friends' Vaudeville/carnival themed wedding before, so now I'll post photos of someone else I know instead:

 

The lovely Dizzy Von Damn!

Love it - the setting, the clothes, the hair/makeup, the tatts, the kinky gear. :thumb_yello: Is she a model or a performer? If the latter is there somewhere to see her performances?

She's a burlesque performer. :-) She does these really great funny performances, and puts in lots of work on her costumes: like she was one to Weezer's "The Sweater Song" where she knits herself out of a sweater, and a cute

where she's a robot, and so on. But she lives in LA and so you can't see her perform unless you go there. :wink2:
