Di solito siamo abituati a sentire il nome di Bettie Boop, ma non è di lei che stiamo parlando. Bettie Page è stata una delle prime e famose pin up della storia. Da lei hanno preso ispirazione personaggi come Dita Von Tease, Bernie Dexter e infinite altre. La sua immagine ha ispirato i pensieri di fumettisti, registi e fotografi di tutto il mondo.



Nata a Los Angeles il 22 aprile 1923 e scomparsa l’11 dicembre 2008, Bettie era una valida studentessa ispirata dalle arti drammatiche e teatrali nelle quali si laureò nel ‘43. La sua carriera inizia però come modella mentre è alla ricerca di una parte come attrice. Passò gran parte delle sue giornate degli anni ‘50 in studi fotografici posando spesso nuda. Quasi per caso si trovò a lavorare con il fotografo Irving Klaw che la riprese in contesti bondage o sadomaso e da quel momento tutti la conobbero come la più importante modella di quel genere. Lei stessa successivamente mandò alcune foto a Playboy e il nostro caro Hugh Hefner se ne innamorò a tal punto da tirarla fuori dai guai quando fu accusata di bancarotta.



La sua carriera però finisce qui e sui motivi dell’abbandono si sono fatte decine di ipotesi. Nel 1976 riaffiorò la sua immagine grazie ad un libro “A Nostalgic Look at Bettie Page” che fece maturare un nuovo interesse da parte dei fan. Per sette anni una rivista inizio a collezionare aneddoti e rivelazioni sulla modella, stimolando le donne dell’epoca ad asssomigliare sempre più al mito di Bettie, che nel frattempo, dalla sua casa a Los Angeles assistiva incredula a questo ritrovato successo. L’autore della rivista però fu costretto a chiudere la serie di articoli quando si rese conto che durante un’intervista Bettie non aveva nulla di nuovo da raccontare….



Due film biografici raccontano di lei: uno del 1994 “Bettie Page: Dark Angel” e il più famoso “The notorious Bettie Page” dove il personaggio di Bettie viene interpretato dalla splendida Gretchen Mol.

Ringraziamo e ricordiamo l’angelo nero con questo video e il trailer del film del 2005 dopo il salto!
