What’s Your Go-To Pose?
When someone aims a camera at you, you have to ACT FAST! What do you do when the shutter’s on YOU? Peace sign? Duckface? Maybe Duck-and-run-for-cover? Put your hand in your hair and look down at the ground? Looking back at photos from my college years, it’s clear that I thought my best look was…

Change Inside & Out
Changing the outside doesn’t change the inside. I tell my parents this when they cluck over my tattoos. I want to say, “I’m still your daughter!” Just with more colorful packaging.

How I Got My Halloween Costume For Free
Pre-tour selfie on Halloween Eve! Look at that grin! It’s been a week since Halloween and I just don’t know how to go on. Really.

What Was Your Childhood Nickname?
Every adult who was ever a child has a story of how they got a stupid nickname. I wanna hear yours. When I was a teenager, my baby brother (we’re nine years apart!) called me “Castle-head” because I was tall and easy to spot in a crowd. Touchy tall teenagers do not like being called…

She says young girls want to be…

Loathe as I am to even grant this video more views than it already has, I watched it yesterday through my fingers, with all the lights on, covering my mouth in advance of the vomit I felt rising in my throat. It’s less than six minutes long, but it’s the scariest horror movie you’re going…
