Plastic Bat - Hey Xarah thank you so much for agreeing on having an interview with me!!! You have some awesome things under your name such as appearing on music videos ... posing in Amf corsets “

Im a huge fan of Amf”
Please tell us more about you and about more of the things yo’ve done ?

Xarah von den Vielenregen – Oh, I worked with really great designers, for example as you said with Louis from AMF, with bands for example Terminal Choice, And One, Two Witches, Riefenstahl, Desir Marie…

I’ve done a lot performances and fashion shows - a really great show was last year for Pretty Pervy, that was a crazy and really funny thing… If you are interested about more things I’ve done, just visit my homepage..

PB - Touring with Two Witches that must have been quite an experience
Whats the most memorable thing out of that experience ?

Xarah – oh, I have to say, everything on that tour was an exciting, new and wonderful experience. It was my first tour with a band ever and also my first trip to Russia.

The most memorable things are: traveling a lot by train, having a really great and enthusiastic audience and a lot of fun…

PB - are you have a poster shop but your items are only available to a few places ,when will we “in South – Africa “be able to get our hands on sum of those ??

Xarah – that’s right….I have to arrange something like this for a worldwide use…At the moment you only can personally order posters from me…

PB - I read that you have a huge wardrobe ... what items are your favorite and whats the most important ?

Xarah – my favourite things are corsets, high heels and latex…But I really love all kind of accessories, for example flowers, bows, fake hair and all that stuff…

PB - How did you get started in the model scene?

Xarah – That is really funny, it never was planned. I loved it to make photos with a good friend only for fun…Later, I began to discover my preference for high heels and I got more and more.

So I decided to make more “professional” pics with them…I looked out for some photographers for a shooting…That was the beginning…

PB - Any advise for people who want to be a model and be successful?

Xarah – do what you really want and be yourself…

PB - Where do you see yourself in the future?

Xarah – I really don’t know, but this is exactly the most fascinating thing…This year is and will be my year…

PB - The goth scene has a lot of politics so does the modeling scene...do
You deal with a lot of bitchyness? And whats your view on it ?

Xarah – I think there is a lot of bitchiness..but I have no problem with it…Most models I know and be around with, are really cool and easy going…

PB - You must get allot of fan mail …sum nice sum bad ..some requests !
Whats the weirdest you ever got ?

Xarah – …most mails are really positive and charming, but of course there are some really weird things…Every model could tell you about this I think…

For example I got something like murder threat, questions about prices for a night, mails from people, whose friends were collecting my pics and telling that I was their ex-girlfriend

and so on…But a really weird mail I remember was from a guy who wanted to sponsor my life if I would live my life only for “fashion”:, no parties, a strict diet, no sex, changing my look according to his wishes and be perfect in every way…
