Bianca
Life is a cabaret! Anyone in doubt needs to meet Bianca!
With the ability to alter her appearance on a whim, Miss Bianca would be the perfect agent for a secret bureau of time travelers that the government may or may not have its hand in operating. Bianca could enter a Dead Boys gig at CBGB's in 1978, change in a washroom stall that doubles as a clandestine device for navigating the time-space continuum with a quick tap of the flush handle, and then go on to co-star with Louise Brooks in a silent film when she arrives in 1926 Hollywood a few hours later. Nary an eyebrow would arch at blatant anachronisms or fashion blunders, because there wouldn't be any. Bianca's attention to detail would rival that of any other agent in the bureau; she'd be the envy of her peers and the object of lust for many across the millennia of human history.
"Ah-hah!" Bianca says to this speculation, "but they couldn't have me! I'm married to a genius of a beautiful man and I wouldn't have it any other way! Even though I might blurt out the occasional 'rock me, Amadeus!' in 18th Century Vienna, it would only be for a cheap giggle!"
We can imagine she'd not only have Beethoven rolling over, but jumping through hoops, as well!
A 21st Century "It" girl, Bianca has been a model since age sixteen. A drastic fear of going under the knife assures that her beauty is -- and will remain -- as natural as the day she was born, and she's constantly working to enrich herself. She's currently being trained in classical ballet, but can equally appreciate the frantic grace of The Charleston, the sensual electricity of between-the-wars cabaret dancing, and Elvira's gravity-defying, pasty-twirling talents at the conclusion of her movie.
She may disagree, but we thank goodness that Bianca lives in the here-and-now instead of the distant Victorian and Jazz Ages from where she draws so much inspiration. In a time when style is so often sacrificed for the modern convenience of bland fashion, we need her to remind us that the beauty of the past is worth preserving, especially with the eclectic hindsight available only from living in the modern day. Another advantage to having her alive and well in 2003 is that we can look forward to seeing what she's got in store for us, whether it be future modeling shoots, lyric-writing, drawing, painting, or dancing! Keep an eye on Bianca's unpredictable exploits through her website or by joining the discourse on her message board, because this dame's bound to keep us guessing for years to come!
