Oprah, Her Magic Mirror & ArtfulPussy
Alexa here. About seven years ago, I watched Oprah tell women to get out a mirror and examine themselves “down there”. I first examined myself at about 12 and knew what I looked like “down there”. Inquiring minds want to know. Shortly after the Oprah show, I unintentionally launched an extraordinary journey into myself. In a moment of rage and anguish over devasting comments from a man I dated...

Did I mention that I loathed myself? Sorry PR, lady. This is bad copy, but it’s the truth … one that shocked me to my core.
My gift as a journalist and speaker is an uncanny ability to channel my own inner experience outward. I never stay inside myself for long, once I’ve learned a new life lesson.
In the coming years, both my work and inner self marched forward to my late July...

An Orgasmic Range of Genitalia
On the one hand, I’m such a worldly, sophisticated woman … but clearly not on the subject of female anatomy, or — more specifically — vulva beauty and originality. Editing the photos of BuzzNoirBabes, I’ve become truly astonished or the extraordinary variations in vulvas. In three months, I haven’t seen two pussys that could be confused with each other. I...

Learning To Love My Own Sexual Anatomy
The erotic photos and free galleries of ArtfulPussy will have great appeal to most men and bi or gay women.
I don’t expect straight women to hang out on BuzzNoirBabes, although I invite them to do so. But I hope that all women enjoy ArtfulPussy.
Born in my own mind and imagination, ArtfulPussy is a deeply sensual expose of my own vision of female eroticism.
Alexa Cushing is a straight...

I’ve asked myself a hundred times if I can justify launching ArtfulPussy as an act of anything more than commercial exploitation of the female anatomy. After all, I quickly noticed that the men of BuzzNoirBabes, love the pussy shots. The click thru rates are the highest on those photos.
The answer is “yes”; I am totally calm in my own mind, that ArtfulPussy celebrates the beauty...

Waves of Thoughts
My relationship with water is very intimate … dreamy, probing, profound.
My assistant sent these last three water photos in her inspiration research — my creativity food — and she triggered many memories about Alexa and water.
As you surely understand, water is deeply sensual to me. It calms me, giving me power.

I adore Venice … so much so that I once slept there until noon. I was so confused when I woke up, I thought I had died and was in another place in the universe. This was a private trip with my partner … the train from Zurich through the Alps to Venice and the sea.
Brushing my hair, still amazed that I had slept until noon, I heard a familiar song outside. What the heck!! Flinging open...
Anne and the Sea in South Beach
Seeing this photo on Black Eiffel triggered memories of my August 2007 walk along the water in South Beach. It was my first visit, to close the deal with the web guys in Fla. I was so excited, walking in the water that morning … dreaming of my new Noir business. I shared my thoughts with readers of my online journal:
From Alexa’s private journal:
“Turning East to face the crashing waves, I tied the elements of my trip together. I admit to facing Her Majesty in my sexy, black Tao Las Vegas t-shirt. The breeze lifted my short skirt even higher, but there was no one to look … and I didn’t care if they did.
Experiencing this awesome beauty, her magnificent, sovereign force, I connected with...
New Research Confirms "Blond Ambition Benefits" Go...
Not only do blonds have more fun. We just might enjoy better orgasms. New research confirms that blonds feel more confident and sexually assertive.
Clairol’s research showed that the blond boost didn’t fizzle out in orgasmic bliss but commanded a premium in the boardroom as well. Blonds reported being more likely to ask for a raise, challenge their boss or stand firm when confronted by a coworker. Don’t assume that blonds are a high-maintenance pain in the derriere. In fact, they self-assessed themselves as women seeking...
Many years ago my hairdresser looked at me and said “Alexa, you are not a brunette. You’re serious enough already; I think you should become a blond.” I made the decision to radically change my appearance in about 60 seconds, and without calling my fiancé. “You’re sure,” I asked Jacob, critically appraising myself in the mirror.
“Absolutely,” he answered. “You are a blond without a doubt. It’s in your genes. This brunette hair is an unfortunate accident on you. It represses your spirit. “ Jacob was right. A return to my pre-blond life has never been an option for me. Reading the results of the Clairol research, it’s clear that blonds enjoy a life plate full of oysters.

Men, Women, Gorgeous Female Anatomy
I’m not offended that men click-thru to the delicious pink, labia and vulva closeups on BuzzNoirBabes at 5-times the frequency of other photos. Personally, I find many of the photos totally gorgeous and very erotic.
Women say this focus on body parts reduces them somehow. I think it beautifies us. I don’t think it’s fair to men, to suggest that appreciating the erotic gorgeosity...

Alexa on MySpace
Stumbling into the work of artist John Stezaker on FFFFound! reminds me of the Alexa photos on my new MySpace page. It remain a work in progress, just a few days old, but we’re using a technique of Photoshopping elements of my life into my actual photos.
Revealing and real, without telling the whole story. I like the strategy … as I unfold in this psychologically challenging process.
