Photos with Legendary Photographer at Chelsea Hotel

12/6/2015

Even though I lived in the penthouse of the Chelsea Hotel for 3 years, I never got this iconic shot. So lucky that the stars aligned last week and I was able to make this dream come true with legendary photographer, Tony Notarberardino! This one was just taken with my iPhone, no retouches - can't wait to see the pro shots! Below is one a friend sent me after spotting it on Twitter - I literally stopped traffic! #ChelseaHotel #HotelChelsea #balcony #shot #photoshoot #iconic #legendary #MissAmelia #lingerie #showgirl #burlesque #sign #rooftop #penthouse #NewYorkCity #Chelsea #portrait #model #blackandwhite

When you say Penthouse, do you mean the Pyramid? I lived in the Pyramid in 1979/80 with the gay rock star Jobriath.

Very cool! I'd love to hear more about your experience sometime!
I recently saw this video of Jobriath in the pyramid - https://youtu.be/3c5kMO-xs_M
My husband lived in the pyramid 1983-2007, and I was there 2004-2007.
Thanks for getting in touch!

I'd love to hear if the layout of the Pyramid changed since I was there.

Sadly, it has been empty with all the new construction, I hope they don't remove the character of such a special place.
