The real Belle De Jour Blog  
Wow.... I must say I am proud of myself for finding this blog XD I know, it probably isn't very difficult since all I had to do was search on google, but hell, it'll give me something to read :) I had no idea it was on blogspot.... I think I might actually have one of those....

http://belledejour-uk.blogspot.com/

Posting the link so I can find it again mainly, and to share with any of my friends who may not have seen it before (though it is quite possible that I'm just extremely slow... lol)

Yeah... My emotion says Flirty.... So? ;)

I check it all the time. I have the first book, too. Has she posted anything new?

The last post seems to be from January 17 2008, so not in awhile. I remember finding it a few months back but then losing the link. I've never read the books, but I've heard the blog is the same, is it? I'm interesting in reading the blog to see how close ITV kept to the truth.

The blog was made into two books--pretty much word for word.


The second is harder to come by.



Belle has NEVER revealed who she is. She met Billie during Billie's research for the first series. But she has never revealed who Belle is and no one else has ever found out.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 12:50 am (UTC)
I remember watching an interview with Billie when she spoke about meeting with Belle :) From what I've read of the blog thus far, I must say Belle sounds like quite the fun person to have as a friend lol ^_^ I think it adds to the mystique of the blog/books if she doesn't reveal who she is. She's intangible, a fantasy and if a face can be matched with that, we as readers would lose something.

Prostitution is legal in London, right?

The only way I'd be able to get the books would be through Amazon uk or the first one here in the US (available under a different title I think...) I tried to find it in a local library but I'd have to request it. Hard to come by is an understatement... Her blog says she's writing fiction novels now too XD

Streetwalking no. Escort yes.


The first book I got thru Amazon.

The second is harder to come by--but that'll change soon I think.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:13 am (UTC)
Hopefully :) I'd like to be able to get my hands on the proper novel version so I don't need to be by a computer to read it ^_^
Timeladywitch: kendra[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 01:23 am (UTC)
Amazon-- just do a search for Belle De Jour in books category.

you'll find it.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:46 am (UTC)
Oh! yeah they have it! XD Now I just have to order it without my parents badgering me... >_> lol
Timeladywitch: call girl[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:11 am (UTC)
badgering you?

For what?
Vicki: Never Leave You[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:16 am (UTC)
I just ordered a ton of stuff on my dad's credit card XD I'll probably have to wait for the bill to blow over... lol
Timeladywitch: stimi 2[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:18 am (UTC)
ah! I seeeee.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:22 am (UTC)
I'll probably be job hunting this summer so I can actually pay for things... ^_^;
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:13 am (UTC)
That makes sense. I was guessing it had to be legal because in the US, she'd be arrested in most areas.
Timeladywitch[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 01:19 am (UTC)
It's only legal if you go through an agency.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:47 am (UTC)
Is that in the US too?
Timeladywitch: fallen angel[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:09 am (UTC)
no. Definitely not.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:12 am (UTC)
That's what I thought lol I thought it was legal in some parts of Nevada though (then again, I haven't been there since I was 10 XD)
Timeladywitch: fallen angel[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:13 am (UTC)
Only in Nevada is it legal through a house. nowhere else.
Timeladywitch: call girl[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 12:31 am (UTC)
Hmm. Does look like it.


It's a blast to read! :)
Timeladywitch: call girl[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 12:45 am (UTC)
I meant: does not look like it.(typo)
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:14 am (UTC)
When was the first post? The farthest back I can get is 2003. Are those the oldest entries?
Timeladywitch: laughing.[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 01:24 am (UTC)
I believe so, yes. I think it's when she started the blog.
Timeladywitch[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 01:28 am (UTC)
Hey slightly off subject, I can only comment on this post. Can't on your LJ.


Is there a glitch?


The wierd thing is that a can only comment to you on my friends page.


Wierd.
Timeladywitch: doctor donna[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 01:39 am (UTC)
Anyway--I can find you the link on Amazon if you want.
Vicki: Billie[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:43 am (UTC)
That's strange... must be a glitch. Most of my posts aren't f-locked anyway, but that shouldn't even matter because we're friends... I'll check that.
Vicki: Doctor!!![info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 01:45 am (UTC)
From what I see, the 'post comment' link is working...
Timeladywitch: rose[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:10 am (UTC)
yeah, but I can only do it through my friends page to you. Maybe it's only at work.
Vicki: Never Leave You[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:14 am (UTC)
That's very strange.... It might be a blocking thing that the company is doing. At school an evil program called Websense blocks everything and I swear one day it will create a paradox and block itself XD
Timeladywitch: bloodybaby[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:16 am (UTC)
no. I have no problems on other friend's lj's. Might be a glitch.


Grr.
Vicki: Doctor!!![info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:18 am (UTC)
LJ has quite a few glitches as of late. I had to report a malfunction in the email notification coding as the email wouldn't tell me what community/ friend had actually had a new post so the notifications were pointless for about a month... They did fix it though eventually.
Timeladywitch: stimi 3[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:20 am (UTC)
Myspace is worse.
Vicki: Fantastic[info]kimori1024 on May 22nd, 2008 02:22 am (UTC)
I had a myspace onces but I think it died... lol
Timeladywitch: fallen angel[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:36 pm (UTC)
I chk mine but don't post much--just link it to artwork.
Timeladywitch: doctor donna[info]gothcat1969 on May 22nd, 2008 02:09 am (UTC)
Okay. No worries. :)
