DJ Wannabeastar, DJ/Performer/Musician

Rumor has it that when DJ Wannabeastar shows up at a fashion show in Amsterdam, alarms go off, and security comes rushing to the door.
That is, if the show has fur in it. Jojanneke Wannabestar (as she’s known to most), the underground pole-dancing DJ/performer, has been on a mission to create, in her own words “a counter offensive” against the fur lobby. And it’s working; her voice is being used in PSAs by the Dutch WSPA* affiliate Fur for Animals (Bont voor Dieren), and she has put a fantastically simple campaign together which allows for Amsterdam Fashion Week participants to simply declare themselves fur free during the shows (NY, please take note).
