Hello Kitty 
Jag Off

JGF: Hey its amazing of you to take the time to do this interview and a honor being a big fan of yours. Anyways can you tell us about a few of your favorite tattoos?

Antietam: I am in love with my hello kitty tattoo...i mean who the hell doesn't love that damn cat! she is the universal sign of happiness and my twin sister i am pretty sure. i got her when i was 21..which was 7 years ago..and she is the largest piece i have on my arms!

my other favorite tatoo is a candy heart with the word jagoff in it. my husband and i both have the word tattooed on us. it's a pittsburgh slang for asshole i guess...used in a sentence..don't be a jagoff!! hahah joe and i got them a few days before we moved to california together, so we would always remember the city where we met.

JGF: i love the hello kitty tattoo you have its very awesome and i love the story behind it. i started a play off that design i'll show you it when its done i'm sure you'll like it. i saw the jagoff tattoo before but i had no idea what it meant until now i love that haha and the story behind that as well. can you tell us how you got into modeling?

Antietam: I got into modeling when i was 18...10 years ago...wow. i feel old..hahah anyways i wanted to be a tromette of the month. i am obsessed with horror flicks and it kinda just blew up from there....i did bondage and fetish and horror for a few years, then i did the suicide girls thing...now i am on godsgirls and zivity. i love modeling and i have no plans to quit anytime soon. haha good thing i look super young, i think i still have at least another 5 good years!

JGF: that's gnarly!!! I think that is a big reason why I am such a big fan of your work aside from the tattoos. That you have an obsession with horror flicks, and that it shows in your work making your work unique and amazing!! I agree with you looking young and you do. You look much younger than your actual age and I would say you have much longer than just 5 years, but with that said.. do you have any plans after modeling? also did you have tattoos when you started modeling?

Antietam: well at some point i would like to get into styling for photographers and doing hair and makeup for shoots. I have also kicked around the idea of opening a salon and boutique or a production company. i have had my tattoos the entire time i have been modeling and i have plans to keep getting more!

JGF: that's very amazing! i can see you doing that for sure! while we are still on tattoos do you have any plans or ideas for your next few tattoos yet?

Antietam: yes!! hahah i am going to finish out my arms with cute little asain cartoons and a portrait of moo! then doing some horse shoes on the tops of my hands..i also wanna do the other side of my neck and my shoulders...hahah i have designs all picked out but you will have to just wait and see what they are!

JGF: that's awesome!! i can't wait to see the progress i'll hook you up with some tattoo works if we ever run into each other for sure!! are there any thanks you want to throw out there before we wrap this interview up?

Antietam: i just wanna thank my amazing and talented tattoo artisit and one of the best friends i could ever have shannon daley! I also wanna say thanks to all of my friends and fans hahah if there are any out there♥ i am so grateful for all the love and continued support...also to nikki andria and my husband joe..you guys are my california family and i couldn't do it here without you♥
