Interview With Acid Candy
by Steve DIY

Acid Candy and I bumped into each other on the net and after cgeking out her wicked site this is one woman who had to be featured in Punk Globe. Nuff Said! Here's what Acid Candy had to say for herself.

Punk Globe: First off how did you come up with the name Acid Candy?

Corruption of today's society..the young people are given the sweet things in life in stead of having to earn them (the candy part) because of this its corrupting them into thinking they can have everything and nothing has value or meaning or morals (the acid part)

Punk Globe: You started modelling at the age of 19 so what inspired you to get in to it?

I wanted to learn more about photography. I figured if I got into modeling I could learn from the photographers I've worked with and so far I've learned a lot

Punk Globe: I notice you've had children so did this cause any problems when it came to modeling or have you done some cool shots like Demi Moore did when she was pregnant?

Actually yes.. the photo you picked for your page is from one of my maternity shoots lol. Having kids doesn't interfere with my work. sometimes i even bring them to shoots. My oldest is got into child modeling and pageants.

Ha! Yeah I forgot I put that picture in my profile space:-)

Punk Globe: You've worked with a fair few people but what has been your favourite shoot so far?

Shooting in the haunted Lemp Brewery in St Louis. I have a thing for shooting in odd, abandoned, haunted, places. I've also shot inside of an abandoned mental institution..that was cool too.

Punk Globe: I know you have limits when doing photography so have you had any photographers try and push those limits?

That's the thing with photographers.. if they are good they will ask you what you are willing to do BEFORE shooting you. That way they can get photo ideas worked out ahead of time. Sometimes you will get a sleaze ball or two try to get you to do things you aren't comfortable. When that happens..paid or not.. i automatically leave the set. Thankfully that has only happened to me once.

Punk Globe: You're in to the Goth scene so what are your fave bands?

 I have a shitload of bands I like. HIM, Otep, Poison the well, Lamb of God, Lacuna Coil, Marylin Manson, ect. My all time favorite when it comes to music is Rob Zombie.. I'm a huge fan of all his en devours.

Punk Globe: Acid Candy You're also an artist so what do you like to do most draw or paint?

 I draw portraits a lot. Mainly of my children. Sometimes other people. I don't really have a lot of my work online because I don't have time to scan them all and get them up.

Punk Globe: So how do you manage to fit in the time for modelling, the web site designing and bringing up kids?

LoL not much of a problem really. I love my kids, they come first. I do these things on the side. My husband helps out a lot too.

Punk Globe: When you have spare time what do you like to do with yourself?

That is usually when i do shoots, or web design..

Punk Globe: Anything you'd like to add?

I plan on someday ruling the world!

And who says Goths don't have a sense of humour? Thanks to Acid Candy for taking time out to the interview. You want to check this lady out - She has some great pictures and the her site is very informative.
