About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
~I wish I had been a goth in the 80's and a raver in the 90's. Unfortunately I was too young for either, so I'm spending the noughties attempting to be a strange amalgamation of the two.~
Violet Magenta is my modelling/performance name. My real name is Becky. You're welcome to call me either, though.
I'm an alternative model and I cover the styles of Goth/CyberGoth/Fetish/Burlesque/Pin-Up. I am also a Cyberlesque performer, which is traditional burlesque striptease with a futuristic/cyber twist. However, if you are interested in booking me as a model or performer, or just want to check out what I do, please visit my modelling profile in my top friends.
When I'm not posing for photographers or strutting my stuff onstage, I'm studying for an English Studies degree at Teesside Uni. I'm in my second year and I actually really enjoy it. I get to read books and ramble on about them, how good is that?!
I'm generally a friendly person and I'm very easy to get to know, so if you fancy a chat, just send a message.
*love and sparkles*
