Exclusive Tattooed Chicks Interview With Sabina Kelley

Sabina Kelley





Firstly tell us a bit about yourself
My name is Sabina Kelley. I was born in Ventura, Ca. My birthdate is March 5th. I own a tattoo shop in Las Vegas, called Staytrue Tattoo. I'm an International Pinup Model and Burlesque dancer. Modeling is my full time job. I'm happily married and have two beautiful kids. A boy who is 3 and a girl who is 5. I also have two dogs.

What made you get into modeling?
I started off as a professional dancer. I was in a ballet company for a few years and then ended up being a Las Vegas showgirl, in Jublilee at Ballys Hotel. Being a Showgirl required many photoshoots and appearances, so I found something I was really good at, and liked besides just dancing. I was already a rockabilly girl before I began modeling. One day I was asked to Model for the cover of CK Deluxe, and I did. Everything snowballed from there, and now I am what I am today.

Do you enjoy the process of getting tattooed?
No, I don't think anyone does. I like it when it is done though.

Talk us through some of your tattoos and the reason behind them
All of my tattoos have meanings and are very personal to me. I don't explain them to anyone. If you know me, you know what they mean. I personally design each tattoo with the tattoo artist. So, everything is original. My left arm is all traditional tattoos. (Pinup, Spiderweb, Skull in a Rose, Cupie Doll, Black Widow, Pirate Ship, Cherries, Flowers, Anchor, Bombshell, My Husband, Daughter, and Son's name) My rate arm is all Japanese style. (Geisha, Black Panther, Cherry Blossoms, and a Lotus) The back of my neck is a dead swallow in a horseshoe with the number 13.

Sabina Kelley Do you have any plans for more tattoos?
Definetly, I don't think I will ever stop getting tattooed. I just take it slow, so I don't regret anything that I get.

What's it like being a sex symbol?
It's kind of funny to me, because I don't see myself as a sex symbol. It's cool though, that people look at me that way. I really like it when I get emails from fans saying how much I inspire them to be an individual and have their own unique look and have a family and be a model to. That makes me feel good. I like being a positive influence.
Aside from modeling and burlesque what other interests do you have?
Lowriders, Bowling, Tattoos, Traveling, Going to the Ballet

You have a very unique style, have you taken any influences from anyone or is it all your own?
It is my own style. I love the 40's/50's look such as Bettie Page, but then I give it my own twist.

What does the future hold for you in regards to work and family?
As far as work, I take it as it comes. I will just keep fulfilling my dreams and do everything and anything I ever want to do. As far as family, I eventually would like to have another baby someday. Kids are the best!
