I've always wondered what kind of parents would let their 15-16 year old daughter do what she did. There was no pretense of "modeling" with her website. There was always boob jiggling and butt shaking, even in the early days. Before she was of legal age she was doing wet t-shirt videos, had a tattoo, nipple piercings, and the like. This was before she had braces, so she was probably a sophomore in high school. I'm sure the parents took a cut.
That had to be strange. I remember when there were photos on her old website of her driving a car with a magnetic sign advertising her website. So, figure 16 or 17. Advertising her cheesecake and wet t-shirt website.
I've mentioned before that I know someone who went to high school with her. Everybody in high school knew. EVERYBODY. Teachers, students---all the girls gave the "Spring Hill Models" a ration of crap once they found out.
I imagine her high school years weren't easy. No boy from a decent family was going to be allowed to date her---that, I assume, is why she ended up married to the guy who met his maker in a meth house. That also explains the series of abusive loser guys.
I know she tried to capitalize on her looks by working at Hooters---but that ended when guys were looking at her site while she was working. Management had to let her go
I guarantee you she regrets being "Christina Model". It is weird she chose to move back to her hometown after being away for years.
I'm not a "white knight". I would have no problem watching new material, if she ever chose to put it out. But I imagine her decisions still haunt her to this day, especially since she has moved back to her hometown. She likely runs into people who know who she it all the time. And it's gotta be awkward because people aren't cool.
Yes, you're right on nearly everything, and the additional detail on some of those points isn't worth expanding on here.
She's fortunate to have close supportive friends who know her background, yet offer her support, unconditionally, because of the good person she is.
I hold the same questions you raise in the first paragraph, and can only add she has a good relationship with her parents. To me it's an odd situation, but I'm glad she can deal with it to her own satisfaction.
Clearly her formative years where different to many other young kids. Wealth and fame would have had an impact on her choices, but she didn't stray far, as her first marriage was to a school sweatheart. Like many, she likey married too young to my knowledge, but so have many others. She was strong enough to know the need to get out of the marriage early. It's all so easy to be critical of her choices, but she's no more guilty than anyone else, as I think she made them with all good intention, and without malice.
I know enough about her to put her hands above many other females that have a higher education or social standing. She's a strong indepenant character, who can command loyalty from those close to her. As to her frailties, she has support from her friends, and it's none of anyone else's business.
She has made friends with some former members of the website, but they are few, and they rarely make comments in public.
They are always supportive of her.
There are also those who can't differenciate between how she was running a business that required being "friendly" to all members, and what is required of real friendship. I know a number of previous members who she can rely on, and some who take every opportunity to stab her in the back, while still claiming to be her friend. To those, they should show her some respect, and accept she is now married with children, and that's now her priority.
Despite what people may say, she was part of a team who ran a very successful business. It was a team effort, even if some didn't like all the team players. They made a very good living out of persuading people to part with money, lots of it, in return for entertainment.
Some can't get over the fact it was a business, and not a charity.
We all have opinions on how that business was run, and likey have ideas on how it could have been improved. Those opinions don't really count for much now, as they didn't back then.
Everyone was given the free will to follow the business as presented, or move on to other sites.
Bottom line is she gave good entertainment, and clearly most of the members appreciated it.
OldChristinaFan I don't think she'd have any issues with meeting you in the local area, in the knowledge you're aware of her previous website exposure. You've shown great respect for her in your comments here, and I know she'd always appreciate your support.
I appreciate your knowledge and comments also. Thx.
