Gia Carangi

[abul]

it's extremely sad to see her every time, i start thinking about how life is cruel
and i also thought that the f*ng ugly version of gia, cindy crawford, got all the succes that was meant to be hers

 

[Lamia]

I'm just thinking how successful and famous she would be if she continued to life.She was really the IT girl,pure beauty,great body,pure sexyness.

If Gia had continued to model... she would have been gorgeous, she would have been famous, an icon, a sex symbol... but happy? It seems unlikely. It's sad, but as they say, some just ain't cut out for show business. I include myself in that category. I would never want to be a celebrity. The idea of being in such a hyperreality scares me. I don't see how anyone can be healthy in such an environment.

Still, in a selfish and very callous way, of course I wish she had been able to model FOR US more. Her photographs were incredible. I shall post more from my collection asap!

if she continued to model, she'd be very unhappy. i totally agree with you stam.

Just to let you all know I'm VERY seriously considering starting an online " Release Gia" petition to try and encourage more photographers etc. to release some of their unseen Gia images to the public.

HOWEVER, I would need a massive amount on help doing this as I have no idea how to even create a webpage! I'm a total technophobe!

If you want to be part of it, please PM me! xXxXx

 

[iluvjeisa]

Sure thing - it needs to be done!!!!!

 

[Stamoholic]

^ Yay!! I've just sent you a PM, and I'll get in touch right away with anyone else who wants to be a part of this!

xXx
