A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Like a living doll…

…and ironically, her IAM name is ‘dolly‘.

    She looks like that in real life? SCARY.

    To Abby, I’m guessing her ‘unique’ outlook on life is to be ‘different’ (which so happens to be the majority of peoples these days, making them the same) and a ‘no rules’ kind of girl (‘its ok to be a slut’).

    She looks like SUCH an attention seeking tryhard.
    If you’re gonna pull the flossy dolly look, at least do it properly.

    i agree with tess.

    grace, your piercings all compliment each other very nicely, and you do look just like a living doll especially in this pic.

    everyone else, get over yourself and you self-esteem problems.

    thankyou to everyone who’s said lovely things about me!

    i have to direct something at pearl, though – what exactly is it about me that screams ‘slut’? you seem to assume that i think being promiscuous is a-okay. in fact you’ve assumed a lot, and you’re wrong in all that you said. it’s not wise to be so quick to judge.

    Zar, guess what. She is that pretty in real life. Pearl, how on earth do you get all that from one picture? Get a life. Jealousy is making people say harsh things, isn’t it?

    I just saw this and read all the comments sure if people dont have anything nice to say they should keep their mouth shut but if she has to get all her little friends and people that have seen her in real life to ‘fight back’ for her maybe she should’ve waited till she could handle the real world?

    Anyway the medusa looks great on her its my fave

    Wow, I think she’s gorgeous, and not just because I love pink hair. And robot-looking people.

    Absolutely gorgeous, and the sadly insecure whiners complaining go fuck right off.

    She is not perfect. . .but that is exactly what makes “Dolly” so indrecibly, intriguing. I know i have never met or seen another that looks as unique as she does. She obviously embraces the real characteristics in her face, and i say the way she keeps herself .ie. make up hair etc shows that she is not afraid to express who she is, on the inside, on the outside. Those snarky and insecure comments left by those select few obviously need to re-evaluate their statements for only those who know her personally can be the judge of things. Now for the photo itself, you have the perfect face to pierce, the contours of your brow and cheek. Your medusa accentuates your top lip, allowing it to look full. The symmetry is brilliant, it looks balanced and immaculate, you pull all of your piercings off really well.
