She started her career on the catwalks of Toontown but soon her ambition and talent grew bigger than any animated frame could probably capture. Attracted by the glitz and glam of Paris and Milan she made her big step into the real world, where she was welcomed with open arms. She's at the beginning of her career and there is no denying her inimitable sense of style. Let me introduce to you the Ultimate Elegance of Genetic Perfection: Baboes.
Flabbergasted I entered the dressing room while she gently swung her head in my direction. Her staggering eyes, like bright shiny emeralds, gave me a hearty welcome. "Take a seat"; a calm voice and a gracious hand directed me to the seat in front of her. "That human astonishment really turns me on, it makes me feel even more alive!" Relying on that, I recovered my state of mind and launched my first question, knowing that 5 minutes was all I got.
Who is your icon?
"Linda Evangelista!" she enthuses, "She is fashion
from head to toe and she will never lose her appeal, she could be
my sister...older sister..." she corrects, "there's a
big advantage in being a toon-model. I don't have to be content
with natural laws like she has to, I've always been almost twenty
and I always will be."
But what about Jessica Rabbit?
"...what about her? She is a charming lady, very sexy, but
a rabbits-playmate...she serves a complete different audience, don't
you think. Besides all that she's a toon herself".
Be a toon, be bold, be bright , in these days of media mania
to be a toon is the measure of success...
"That's a typical human point of view, which I feel grateful
for. Let's be realistic, it made my career possible. It opened new
dimensions for all the toons who have great ambitions in the real-world
, it is a break-through in cartoon-emancipation...I love that...
and I truly admire all those living breathing cartoonesque personalities
who worship toon-status."
What does it mean to be a cartoon?
"It means I'm capable of amazingly complex features, all the
while remaining appealingly simple... I must admit, I haven't shown
all the spectacular features yet, but it's just a matter of time....
it also means to have a limitless wardrobe."
What about feelings, love, is there a boyfriend?
"Who wants to know?" A naughty sparkle raises her vivid
eyes and like a professional she resumes " I do have feelings.
It's a misconception to think that cartoons don't have feelings.
I'm immune to catwalk-catastrophes, I can handle impossible high
stiletto-heels like a graceful flamingo or bounce back elastic when
I run into a mirror...which I do on purpose from time to time, the
audience loves that...but behind the surface hides a lot of female
sensitivity and desires."
Her big well-shaped head slightly enlarges and I notice that I might have touched a tender spot here...
"Holy Mickey..." she yells while she perked up from her
seat..."I almost forgot... Time for my salad."
What do you mean? You're on a diet?
"Yes, the out-line diet program...3D is hot, 2D is not, I'm
on a diet to reduce these out-lines".
And while she delicately picks at her salad, her dog and mental coach, Pollo, brings me back to reality..."your last question, please...".
Can you tip our visitors on how to expose themselves as a cartoon?
"Watch me, watch Betty Boop and all the others! Don't focus
on the breasts, silicone your head and make it gigantic!".
Deeply impressed I left the lady whose endless charms no-one can deny. When I looked back over my shoulder to catch a final glimpse of this new-born icon, her red bob twirls to a giant Kelley-roll...even this world might not be big enough for this red-ambition!
