| Bettie's
fame comes from her pinup-style modeling days in the 1950s, and
she has had quite the resurgence during the past couple of decades.
And now, into the new millenium, Bettie's beauty continues to shines
through as an endless bright flame. She has a certain je ne c'est
qua that captures the attention of the passerby. Either you love
those startling blue eyes & dark fringe of hair above them,
or you are indifferent. Here at Bettie_Buddies, we positively adore
everything about Bettie Page - and we'll do our buddie-best to spread
the word about this photographic goddess of days-gone-by. In the
collage above you can see how photogenic Bettie was, and how she
revealed different sides of herself - sultry, sassy, submissive,
sexy, etc.
Bettie
quit the pinup biz in 1957, and became quickly became a mystery
woman! Does anyone actually know the truth about what became of
her? Who knows. There are books written about Bettie, trying to
unravel the mystery of her existence. One thing we know for sure
is that she's alive and well, living in California. Currently,
there is a licensing company managing the rights to use her image
so that she's looked after financially. This company is called
CMG Worldwide.
Make sure you buy licensed merchandise (like Dark
Horse, Fashion
Victim, etc.) - then we know for sure that money is being
sent to Bettie for usage of her image.
Bettie's photos have inspired many artists, the most famous probably
being Olivia and Dave Stevens. For a great online gallery of both
photos & artwork, visit the Official site, BettiePage.com.
You can also find a bio on Bettie there, as well as an online
