22The Cat’s Meow

Hi Lexy Lu! Tell us a bit about yourself! 23The Cat’s Meow
I am 29 years old. I live in Cambridge in the UK. I
have been modelling since November 2014.

What do you think makes you stand out from other
models?
I suppose it is my curves. My hip to waist ratio is
quite extreme; with a 12 inch difference un-corseted
and over 16 inch difference corseted. I am big busted
too; so this adds to the hourglass effect.

What would you say is your biggest accomplishment
to date?
Building up a great following and getting to know
some great photographers; has been quite an accom-
plishment. Also getting published and getting The
Cat's Meow featured girl spot have felt pretty amaz-
ing!

Do you have a degree?
I have a degree in English Literature and a Psycho-
therapy Diploma.

It's a typical Saturday night, what can you be found
doing?
I have been attending burlesque dance classes on al-
ternate Saturdays; so you would find me shaking my
thing there or cooking up a storm at home.

What are your hobbies?
I do enjoy singing and dancing, plus I am quite the
bookworm.

What makes you happy?
Spending time with family, laughing, dancing and
drinking tea.

What makes you sad?
Witnessing suffering.

What are some of your quirks?
I am quite a night owl and always reluctant to sleep,
and I can drink tea by the gallon.
Who do you think is your biggest cheerleader?
It definitely used to be my Mum; now she has passed
away I think I have taken over. Cheering myself,
yay!

Where can we see more of your work?

Photos by: Rocky Knoll PhotographyBorn January 3rd 1990, who knew such a beauty would know so much pain? What does a young girl do when all she knows is the
words "ugly, worthless, pain"? Does she just give up? NO, she becomes a beautiful storm. Amazing to look at, and when you get

close you are enveloped in her gorgeous winds.

So, Miss Beautiful Chaos what motivated you to get into modeling?
I have always wanted to model since I was a little girl, playing with makeup and striking poses in the
mirror, but I always felt like an “ugly duckling” due to the taunts of hateful words from kids,
family etc. I believed I wasn’t worthy of the word “beautiful”. My low self-esteem led me down
a road of looking for love and acceptance in all the wrong places, but one day it hit me
instead of looking for acceptance and love from everybody else I need to give it to myself.
So I took the steps needed to fix my depression and self-esteem and I came out a DIVA!
Haha! I wanted to show those who have been picked on, abused, hurt, etc. that it
doesn’t need to hold you down. If you believe you are beautiful then the camera will
always see your beauty.

Who is Miss Beautiful Chaos outside of modeling?
Outside of modeling I am a mommy, goofball, Hairstylist/MUA, and horror
movie lover. It’s so funny how people see your social networks and think
you are wild & crazy. But in reality I am just a tattooed mommy when I
am not shooting. You will see me with my boys most of the time, and
maybe once in a blue moon I go out for a girl’s night. But other than
that I am just cracking jokes, watching movies, and playing
with makeup.

I see your hair is always changing in your pictures; do you style
your own hair?
I do style my own, I am in love with wigs they are so fun. You get
to change your hair every day without damage. It’s like being a
different person every day. One day I have short hair, the next
pink hair or a Mohawk. I have worn wigs for a while now so I
have learned how to make them look natural. Most people can’t
tell that they are fake. This is rule #1 of wig wear lol

Grew up in SoCal, but Colorado is
where I call home.

Alongside modeling for over 20
years, international publications
and television work, I work full
time in the cultivation industry
getting my hands dirty in soil
working with plants! I have a love
for nature and the process of life
and growing.

I am a mother first and foremost
to a beautiful teenage daughter!
She carries my heart!

I am determined, independent and
have a huge heart!

Tattoos... I am fascinated with the
art/tattoo culture and have a deep
respect for the artists I collect
from. I travel and work tattoo
conventions in my spare time. I
have been blessed with meeting
and making friends with some of
the biggest names in the industry.
I have been collecting for about 10
years although I have been getting
tattooed since 98'.

Music lover to the core and would
choose a live show over any other
kind of night out! Hardcore, Punk,
Metal, Hip-Hop, 80's Retro/Pop, is
where it’s at!

My first car was an 83' Monte

my younger self. Many of my feelings are My DeviantART:
vague and I cannot easily verbalize how I www.chronicbetchface.deviantart.com
experience life, so drawing and My Facebook page:
photography are a natural language for me. www.facebook.com/chronicbetchface
I am self-taught in all that I do -excluding
my short experience in the darkroom for
film photography- for I have found this
form of education to be an admirable art in
itself. It is not compulsory, but self-
initiated. A lot of people like to ask me
what each piece means, but my portrait is
my response. I think the role of the artist is
to affect people, whether positively or
negatively; to make us think. The fact that
there are those who try to stop or censor
what some of our work says justifies what
we do.

Q&A:
Tell us a little bit about yourself. How old
are you? Where are you from?
I am 21 years old, but mentally I feel much
older. I'm originally from East County in
San Diego, California, but as of 2012, I
reside in Santa Barbara County, California.

How long have you been modeling?
I've been modeling and creating self-
portraits since 2010, but more consistently
since 2012. It's been a vast source of
artistic expression for me.

What would you say is your biggest
accomplishment to date?
My biggest accomplishment is knowing
how many ladies and gents I've been able
to inspire... whether artistically or making
them feel more comfortable in their own
skin... it's the best feeling I could ever
experience.

Where do you hope to be in 5 years? 39The Cat’s Meow
Continuing to inspire or make any positive
difference in someone’s life. It is such a
profound feeling to know you can help
someone feel better about themselves and
be far more confident with who they are
and all that they do.
