"I just find people so interesting"





Edie Sedgewick, Warhol's muse. One of the first iconic skinny bitches, along with Twiggy.

Wikipedia on Sedgewicks death:
"(...)After the fashion show, she attended a party and was supposedly attacked by a drunken guest who called her a heroin addict. Sedgwick phoned Post, who arrived at the party and, seeing that she was disturbed by the accusations, took her back to their apartment around one in the morning. According to John Pierce in "Edie - an American Biography", she came on to him at the party and complained about her marriage to Post. On the way home, Sedgwick expressed thoughts of uncertainty about their marriage. Before they both fell asleep, Post gave Sedgwick the medication that had been prescribed for her. According to Post, Sedgwick started to fall asleep very quickly, and her breathing was, "bad – it sounded like there was a big hole in her lungs," but he attributed that to her heavy smoking habit and went to sleep.

When Post awoke the following morning, Edie Sedgwick was dead."
