I wasn't sure how I would introduce myself with this blog because I have so many things going on. I thought "What best describes GATA?" The answer is simple: MOTHERHOOD. With everything that I love to do, nothing beats being a mother....of 10 CHILDREN! Life was crazy when I decided to seriously immerse myself in acting, comicbook modeling and alternative fashion, but if you infuse 10 children being peppered throughout..it equals interesting.
I truly enjoy motherhood. I had been faced most of my adult life with people telling me that I could never follow my dreams as an entertainer and have a family at the same time. It just DOESN'T work. Well, although I'm not super famous of anything of the like, I beg to differ. I can support my family doing what I LOVE. So, what do I do? Well, that's a mouthful! I'm an actress (Bachelor Party in the Bungalow of the Damned, Step Up 3D, Bikini Bloodbath Christmas etc)
My acting name is my REAL name; Monique GATA Dupree. My alter ego is Tha Original Gata; the name I go by... I'm also an alternative model, producer, comicbook model, wrestling valet, vocalist for Negro Childe & store owner http://www.liz.storenvy.comhttp://www.harajukugata.storenvy.com. I'm pretty much considered a weirdo, different, crazy, wild and so many other names. I just love to entertain & be true to who I am! I wear cat ears because I feel comfy in them. I love wearing furry things. But most of all, I LOVE hanging out with my babies...the little ones, the adult children and all inbetween. This is just a small glimpse into my life and the happy craziness in it. I hope you will enjoy what's to come!
