Introduction
On a fabulously wasted date in the legendary Hotel Chelsea in New York, my gorgeous little punkette Vivid and I are carelessly playing out the greatest love affair of punk rock history. Take a Cheap Holiday In Other People's Misery, a violent love story and a murder mystery!...
On October 12th 1978 Nancy Spungen, the girlfriend of the punk icon Sid Vicious, was found dead in the room 100.
Did Sid kill Nancy? Eh, who cares, darling, Vive le Punk!
VIVID SAYS: Those tiles are stained still... and under the sink is carved "Manko + Vivid". A little ghost remind of us hidden, but present, always. Will you go there? Could you find it? Like little puzzle pieces of a punk past.
While we curled up in the room, a door swung open on us, without a visible hand. I like to think it was Nancy, stopping in to say "oi"
Punk's not dead.

SuicideGirls… became famous for embracing beauty in every shape and form — meaning bodies covered in tattoos, having bright-colored hair, and being outside of traditional beauty norms were celebrated. The name comes from the idea that women who commit “social suicide” by being different come together.
A nation wide art-sleaze phenomenon.
It’s like a punk rock Vogue…with artful nude photos of women.
Fifteen years ago, a small-but-passionate community that celebrated beauty in alternative, pinup-style photography was born. It was called SuicideGirls.
They’re the girls next door - but more colorful and with better record collections.
SuicideGirls respond… in the best way possible.
The meeting place for people interested in alternative lifestyles.
SuicideGirls is as much about community as it is about naked photos of tattooed women.
SuicideGirls is redefining concepts of beauty across the globe.
