Glamour Girl Grand Champion Announced

After 4 months and almost 500 entries, we have our Grand Champion!!  Let’s all congratulate our 2021 Grand Champion, Kelli Perry!  Kelli blew away our judges with her three entry photos and after beating out some very stiff competition in the Cougar category, rode that victory to Grand Champion.  We sat down to congratulate Kelli and interview her for Eye Candy.  Let’s go!

Kelli, congratulations on being named this year’s Glamour Girl Grand Champion.  How does it feel to be named our top Glamour Girl of 2021

Being selected as this year’s Grand Champion is truly an honor and very humbling. There are so  many beautiful girls that have entered and every one of them deserve to be chosen, but I realize there  can be only one. My hope is that by being chosen, it will serve to inspire other girls to enter, while having fun doing it, and feel that passion to win!

Tell us how you go about choosing your outfits and how you choose what photos to submit.

Choosing my outfits and photos is no easy task! The look I create must dovetail with the setting I  am in along with the message I want to send with my poses, outfits and facial expressions. I choose  outfits that will exude femininity and compliment my look in pictures. I believe my photos truly express the  joy and fun I have with my feminine side in typical lifestyle settings, not forgetting to mix it up with a little  pizzazz!. My hope is that by doing this, I can create the persona for other girls to emulate, and express femininity in THEIR own way, a way that can be used to be happy, complete, and inspire others to do the same!

What advice would you give girls entering the contest next year?

My advice for girls who want to enter the contest is to BE YOURSELF. That is the “secret sauce” that is sometimes taken for granted, but will shine through the most. Viewers will KNOW it just by your pose, your outfit, and most of all, your SMILE. In a nutshell, as I have told so many over the years, be sexy, classy, and fabulous!

Any final words for your fellow girls? Our readers and judges?

For those girls who have entered the contest, THANK YOU! You have taken a bold step towards the next level of expressing your femininity in pictures using friendly competition. You will be a better and more complete person for it…I sure am! Readers, please enjoy what you see, because we do it for YOU.  And finally, the judges. I would not want your job for anything! Having to choose from SO MANY beautiful

Let’s start our main interview by letting our readers know where you are from?

I live in Elk Grove, California. As a kid, our family moved around a lot because of my father’s  employment, but always within the state. I enjoy California!

When did you first start dressing and how did it come about?

I started dressing when I was about eight years old. My mom’s and sister’s undergarments and  pantyhose got more use than they knew about! I also dressed in their dresses and swimsuits. I found all  of these to be exhilarating in look and feel, and putting them on revealed my feminine side I never knew I  had, and it was quite enjoyable and refreshing at the same time. The mystique I experienced by wearing  these garments, dresses, heels, etc. was indescribable. You girls KNOW what I mean!

How did you come up with your Femme name?

My favorite actress is Jaclyn Smith, and her name on the “Charlie’s Angels” television show was  Kelli (with an i). I am very proud of that “i” and consider that “i” on the end of my name to be a little “wink” to people I meet haha.

How often do you dress?

I dress just about every weekend, and sometimes during the week. It really depends on what I  have going on. I have two jobs (one to pay the bills and the other strictly to fund Kelli!), so getting out  during the week is only on an occasional basis. When I go out on the weekend I am usually with friends,  but sometimes I go to the local pub and meet up with my bartender friend and others to chat. All have  been truly supportive, and I enjoy doing it!

Are you married/in a relationship? If yes, are you able to share your female self with your  partner?

I am divorced and not currently in a relationship, but one never knows who is right around that corner!

What are some of your favorite outfits/fashions?

I only have 3 sentences to answer this question? Not nearly enough! Haha. I very much enjoy dresses of all kinds, from florals to lace to sequins for that “special” occasion (which I believe every  opportunity to dress and go out is a “special” occasion), usually short and low cut in the front. I do wear  jeans every now and then, but prefer dresses with open toed heels. I like blue, red and black dresses, and usually go with a nude colored heel to make my legs look longer.

Stockings or pantyhose?

I am mostly a bare leg girl (I think it looks and feels chic), but I actually started out wearing both stockings and pantyhose (not at the same time haha) for most of my start-up days. Like I mentioned before, the mystique I felt by looking at and feeling them on was mesmerizing. Presently, pantyhose with my Hooters outfit and stockings and garters for those special moments!

Heels or flats?  

Heels! Heels! Oh, did I say heels?? Oh yes, I am blessed with a girl size foot, and wear nothing  shorter than a 4 inch heel. Most of my heels are 5”, and I feel quite comfortable wearing them. Another level of mystique I described earlier is putting a pair of sexy heels on and sashaying my hips ever so gently and taking those short, coy, steps…sexy girl style ooh la la!

Favorite places to go when dressed?

This girl LOVES dancing, and she will pick the BEST dance venue to show off her moves! I also like fine restaurants, wine tasting, broadway shows, and the finer venues, BUT, I love the beach and laying out in my finest bikini as well!

Go to accessories for a night out

I guess that really depends on the occasion, but I have been known to sport bling, bling and more bling! Gold accessories are my favorite, but rhinestones certainly get the nod every now and then. And of course, mani and pedi nails MUST match, along with purse and shoes!

Who is/are your female role model(s) and why?

I like RuPaul, for obvious reasons, but for me she is the essence of someone expressing her female side through the lens of experience, and she shares those experiences which she has learned from through her TV show, videos, blogs, etc. I admire her courage, boldness, and self confidence because it’s who she really is deep down inside and is who I want to be as well. I love what she has famously said, “We are all born naked, everything else is drag!”. Ru embraces her “girl” to a point where  you just want to be like her (full of inspiration and completeness), and I think she does that on purpose!

I also admire Cassandra Cass, obviously for her extreme beauty, poise, and femininity, but also  her boldness and humor. She has so much fun!!

Every time I go out I try to exude all of these qualities expressed by my role models. I make it a  policy of mine to introduce myself to someone I have not met before.. I LOVE meeting new people and  putting them at ease with a girl like me. Frankly I have not had one bad experience…all have been  welcoming, supportive and fun!

Tell us some fun facts about yourself. What are your hobbies (either when dressed or not), likes, things you do in your spare time, or anything else you would like to share.

Hobbies?? Well, shopping of COURSE! I LOVE window shopping, trying on cute dresses and  heels, and being helped by those darling department store hostesses! I also do a little painting (canvas,  not walls, haha), and I enjoy TRAVEL. I go to many places across the country as Kelli, have flown as Kelli several times, and enjoy seeing new things across this great country of ours!

Another hobby I have (if you can call it that because I REALLY enjoy doing it) is creating events that give girls the opportunity to come out and express their girl side. I hold many local events in and around the Sacramento area, and have an annual event held in Las Vegas each year called TG Rocktober in October, which started out as a gathering of just 12 girls but has mushroomed 6 years later  to over 150 girls annually. I have also coordinated the Thursday night Rockstar Bus Tour event at Viva Wildside in Las Vegas held in May. Again, I LOVE inspiring others to express their girl realness!

Any stories you would like to share about yourself and your journey?

I make it a policy of mine to introduce myself to someone I have not met before EVERY time I go out, at a restaurant, club, winery, or even on an airplane. I LOVE meeting new people and putting them at ease with a girl like me. Frankly I have not had one bad experience…all have been very welcoming and curious, which does not bother me in the least. One of the best stories I like to tell is the time I was flying to Vegas. This was just one of the times I flew as Kelli. I met two girls (they were best friends) sitting next  to me on a plane and we had the BEST time chatting! They wanted to know all about me and my evolution of being a trans woman. I shared that my story of being this way really isn’t an option and simply COMPLETES my life. They were intrigued. I truly believe they appreciated the fact that I was so open. To this day we remain in contact and they have come to some of the gatherings I have put on. It’s quite  satisfying to me that through my journeys and events, maybe, just maybe, someone understands just a little more than they did before!

I am very public. I enjoy every time I go out I try to exude all of these qualities through my friendships and new acquaintances.

If you have social media, what is the best way for others to follow you?

I am on Facebook, Instagram, Kik, and Only Fans, but the best way would be on Facebook

If you would like to send a message to your fellow girls out there or a closing statement.

Of course! Your world will come ALIVE if you share your world with others! There are so many people out there who not only want to express their “girlness” such as I and many others have done, but  also people who want to understand it, and what it means to express one’s feminine side. Be BOLD, have FUN with it, and most importantly, LIVE YOUR PASSION!

Well said Kelli.  Such great words to live by!  Thank you so much for this interview and congratulations on being the 2021 Glamour Girl Grand Champion!
