Interview Bites with Frankie Tease: Masuimi Max at Viva Las Vegas 15



As I wound my way around the Viva Las Vegas 15 car show Saturday April 5, 2012 (Las Vegas Orleans Hotel) I approached the Pin-Up Girl Clothing Boutique Model Lounge, where Masuimi Max and other amazing models were available for photos and autographs with fans. The line wound around the pink and white tent, because this woman has both men and women fans all over the world who admire her. I jumped in and fought off her fans long enough to get a very brief audio interview, and this is what the international fetish pin-up model, who looks haute in latex, had to say about the Viva Las Vegas 15 Rockabilly Weekender, and her long love affair with the camera.

FT: What is your favorite part about Viva Las Vegas?
MM: The people. Everyone is so excited. They're here to have fun. They're not here for any drama. They're here to dress up, listen to good music, meet people, and have fun. That's what life is really about.
FT: I've seen you do Burlesque in Portland, but how long have you been into the rockabilly scene?
MM: Let's see, I was 18 in 1996. My first photo shoot was with Mamie Van Doren by Julie Stray, so I've been in this a while.
FT: So Mamie is one of your inspirations? 
MM: Yes. Mamie Van Doren, Betty Page of course. The art of Olivia is what turned me on to these people. I lived a very sheltered life, my parents were very religious.
FT: All the suppressed girls have the fun later in life.Thanx for chatting with me Masuimi Max.

Tidbits and Teasers: Tempest Storm the Film, iHeartRadio, Justin TImberlake 20/20 Experience, Melody Sweets in NYC

Tempest Sotrm "Burlesque Queen" On Kickstarter thru Oct. 9 A new film documentary by Director Nimisha Nukerji is due to be released in 2014 about 84 year old burlesque star and Life-long Stripper Tempest Storm . During 2013, the film project is seeking the help of devoted burlesque fans of the Legendary Stage Performer and Model Tempest Storm on Kickstarter (through Oct. 9,2012). Friend to Bettie Page and Marilyn Monroe, mistress to both Elvis and JFK, betrayed at the height of her career by MGM for falling in love with a black man, it's safe to say we don't have stars like Tempest in this day and age. Recognized by Oprah Winfrey for her documentary "65_RedRoses" Director Nimisha Nukerji has a knack for telling stories and has brought those skills to one of America's favorite characters and sex symbols. Tempest Storm shares the camera with Dita Von Teese (Strip Strip Hooray), Melody Sweets (Absinthe), and Lou Lou D'Vil (2013 Queen...

My First Vegas Show Preview Will Be of a Protest, Not a Show...

I've written a small synopsis and it is a bit lengthy but pretty interesting, and you should go ahead and read it so you can explain it to your neighbor, because this is going to be very large news.
