Who are you and where are you from? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jeanne Killjoy from South Jersey\/Philadelphia area <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. How did you discover cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>In middle school, my friends and I would dress up like video game and anime characters for fun. I didn&#8217;t start going to conventions until 2010 though.Since then I&#8217;ve done somewhere between 25-30 characters and even started making some of my own costumes, which I&#8217;m really proud of. I hope to continue making my own costumes as I go on with cosplaying. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. I really love your Rogue cosplay. What made you choose her? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rogue has always been my favorite comic book character. As a kid I grew up watching the animated series. I probably liked her back then due to the hair and accent to be honest, but as I grew up I loved how her character developed and even found myself relating to her. I put her off for awhile because I was worried I wouldn&#8217;t do the character justice, but I&#8217;m glad I did it. I&#8217;ve since improved the costume and plan on doing three other versions of her in 2013. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. I know you have cosplayed other comic characters, which one was your favorite? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rogue is definitely my favorite. After Rogue, I would have to say my FemGambit was my next favorite.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/interview-with-jeanne-killjoy\/554063_10100199563420364_2029305780_n\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13765\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13765\" title=\"554063_10100199563420364_2029305780_n\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/554063_10100199563420364_2029305780_n-e1358794884372.jpg?resize=660%2C994\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"994\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. What other genres do you cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I&#8217;ve done everything from comics, videogames, anime, manga, and TV. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>6. What is your favorite way to show off a new costume? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Photoshoots are always a great way to show off the new costumes, especially when I can make it look like I&#8217;m in the setting of the character. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Do you do other modeling besides cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I do. I&#8217;ve done more alternative genres, but I love doing high fashion and runway modeling as well. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>8. What are your plans for the future? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Cosplay-wise, I have some comic, TV, and anime themed cosplays lined up for 2013. Outside of cosplay, I&#8217;m going to start training in January to do professional wrestling. I&#8217;ve been a fan of wrestling since I was a kid and it&#8217;s been a dream of mine to do it, so I&#8217;m doing everything I can to make it happen. I&#8217;ve been going to school for TV and film, so it will be a nice change from what I&#8217;ve been used to for the past few years. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Where can my readers see more examples of your work? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I have a cosplay\/modeling page on facebook! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/jeannekilljoy\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.facebook.com\/jeannekilljoy<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>10. If you had to pick one genre to cosplay, which one is your favorite? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>That&#8217;s such a hard question! I would have to go with comics.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/interview-with-jeanne-killjoy\/1705fbfinal\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13766\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13766\" title=\"1705fbfinal\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/1705fbfinal-e1358795044199.jpg?resize=660%2C990\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"990\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Its Monday and that means its time for an exciting interview with a talented cosplayer.\u00a0 Today&#8217;s interview focuses on the always beautiful Jeanne Killjoy.\u00a0 Show &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":13767,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,95],"tags":[2114,1007,1034],"class_list":["post-13763","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-cosplay","tag-cosplay","tag-derf","tag-interview","latest_post"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/i-Sbnxdj3-L-Copy.jpg?fit=660%2C452&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p35LLI-3zZ","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13763","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13763"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13763\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13774,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13763\/revisions\/13774"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13763"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13763"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13763"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
