Dita Von Teese

"Everybody asked me, 'Can I wear black?' I said: 'Of course you can wear black. Whose wedding do you think you're going to?" -Dita Von Teese, about the plans for her and Marilyn Mansons wedding.

She calls herself an international burlesque star, she is never seen without her black hair pinned to look like a 1940's pin-up poster-girl, with matching blood-red lips. She wears black latex suits to black-tie dinners. She's written more than one fetish book, been married to Marilyn Manson and is now the face of the MAC Viva Glam VI campaign.

Really her birth name is Heather Renée Sweet, and was born on September 28, 1972.
