Dita Von Teese before she became the queen of burlesque

she stole the Dita Parlo thing from Madonna, who used it in Sex back in 1992...the same year dita started her career

I don't care about her hair colour, but she really does look fab without makeup. I wouldn't wear it if I had her even skin tone.

I love that Dita does her own makeup and costuming...she's got a great business sense, lots of passion for burlesque, and works hard. Really. I gotta give anyone props for following their dreams and making it work. Don't get the whole Marilyn Manson thing though.

she was so pretty before.

She was beautiful then, and she's beautiful now.

I guess we can be rest assured she won't be going back to blonde any time soon.

Dita is fortunate enough to be beautiful as both a brunette and blonde.

I wish she would be more adventurous with her looks, though.

She's pretty! I've always enjoyed watching her. I think it's cool that she does pointe. She does a great birdcage routine as well. Watch her Champange Act here! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbYcI5svK0g It's lopsided, so you have to watch it with your head tilt.

Respect and Playboy shouldn't even be in the same sentence. Plus, I'd hope any father would be embarrassed to know that all of his buddies were ogling his daughter naked, fuck it sounds like her dad was doing some ogling himself.

^Yeah my Dad would hate me to be in Playboy!

Hmm I think most decent fathers wouldn't want that for their daughter.

^^But she was only taking the route her sister had taken, too!
I love Dita, but I think that she's been trying too hard. The glamour models she imitates had a very natural sexiness. Dita is too made up, and she is starting to come across as very fake.
She should go ack to her roots. (And I don't really mean her hair color, she looks great brunette--I'm a natural blonde but feel much sexier as a fake brunette).

I love what she does, and patiently wait for new pictures of her and her "getups". So what if she's reincarnating an old act, it's beautiful, why not?
She was pretty as a blonde, and is pretty as a brunette. I applaud her for sticking with the vintage pinup look, but it's got to be expensive!
