Q: Talking about your look... I've noticed lots of tattoos on your body. When did you get your first tattoo, what was it?
A: Tramp stamp on my lower back of a butterfly, my first lover and love bought if for me. I thought I was so cool. I also got my star sign tattooed on my hip that is now covered with a star. Me and my girlfriends in our private catholic school girl uniforms rocked up for a tattoo at this little place in my home town of Noosa in Australia.

Q: What about the other tattoos you have? Guide me a bit into your inked madness!
