This is the story of Dawn Marie and Circlek. This is my personal adventure with one of my closest friends.

I had heard of Dawn Marie from Izzicam's chatroom. This was in January of 2000. She would come in and everyone would chat with her. The picture to the left is the first picture I ever took of her. I was photographing Fantasm 2K for Xcitement Magazine and I really only knew a few people. I recognized her from her website and wanted to take a picture of her and her friend, Wes Wilson. I basically knew she was this famous cam girl, which is why I wanted to put her in the magazine (which I did).

After Fantasm, I still would see her around the chatroom, I would chat with her every now and then, but still had not really gotten to know her one on one. I was still taking pictures for the magazine and still meeting lots of fun and interesting people that Dawn and I ended up being intertwined with.

Everyone would tell me how sweet Dawn was and how everyone loved her. I knew she was too famous to ever want to be friends with me, so I never bothered to persue it any further.

"There are two types of people in the world, those that think they are the most popular people in the world and everyone hates it for it, and those that ARE the most popular people in the world, but never lets that go to their head." - Dawn Marie
