Bettie Page Died...

[qteasydanil]

 ...even though we all knew she never took any pictures of herself as a old woman, you still want to believe that the Bettie in the pinups still looked like that. le sigh.

And wow. She's dead, meaning her persona as the freaky chick next door will now and forever remain a fantasy. That is poorly duplicated by hipsters with bad tattoos.

Oh man.

She's going to be remembered for a number of reasons, good, bad and otherwise, and that's exactly the way she wanted it. As for being poorly duplicated by hipsters with bad tattoos, that comes with the territory of being an icon. Often imitated, never duplicated.
