Popular pinup model and “James Girl” Inanna Deity was one of the ladies featured in my first article on the models of renowned pinup photographer Mike James. In this recent, exclusive, and candid interview with her, Inanna reveals she’s much more than a pinup model. She discloses her “day job” because, as she puts it; “I think it’s important to convey the message that models aren’t all starving artists,” which she feels is a powerful message to women on both ends of the spectrum. She goes on to say that “women who want to explore their potentials can do so, whether that’s from a successful professional perspective, wanting to tap into their artistic side, or those who are entertainers of some sort and want to tap into their intellectual side.” Currently writing her autobiography, Inanna has a particularly adventuresome shoot with Mike James planned for later this year. Hear about that and much more by just pressing play, below. Photo and outfit at left by Sebastian Cauchos.
