A Tale of Glitz & Glamour — №5
As Kitty walked the city streets, she thought back to her old life — before lavish apartments, before catered meals, before cars picked her up when Lawrence sent them her way.
Her brother had spit on her the day she left.
Her sister had cried.
Her mother and father hadn’t given their approval. They had been church-going folk — the kind to think show business was the way of the devil.
In truth, they hadn’t been far off — not that she would ever say the words to them even if they spoke to her again.
But that was in the past.
A Tale of Glitz & Glamour was inspired by Taylor Swift’s twelfth album The Life of a Showgirl. The main character is inspired by Taylor Swift’s showgirl character Kitty Finley. Out of copyright concerns, I have added my own embellishments to make the character my own, but each piece was inspired by one of Swift’s songs on the album.
