GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ That Gal That Danced On The Jags In The Whitesnake Video Has Passed Away

Posted by: Todd Simpson May 13 2021, 03:30 AM

Sadly, Tawny Kitaen (you remember her from starring roles in 2 whitesnake videos and bit parts in various movies. She was also on two album covers for the band RATT as she was the girlfriend of the blonde guitar player in Ratt before she left him for David Coverdale of Whitesnake after David Geffen told her how much money he'd spent to promote Whitesnake)

She had so much plastic surgery it was hard to recognize her in the end. We don't know her cause of death. She was an iconic beauty in the 80s.

Yeah I saw that, she was stunning in the 80's unfortunately shell fell into the surgery trap.

I think the song Kitten's Got Claws was written about her, may be wrong on that though.

I think that song was about her They divorced only 2 years after they married. Just as whitesnake was on the decline. She was amazingly pretty in the 80s and did a lot of modelling work. You nailed it on the surgery trap. she had so much plastic surgery that she looked like a different person as she got older.
She kept have face lifts to prevent her age from showing and it had a very bad long term
impact sadly. for a woman whose career was based on her looks, she just couldn't
let it go and age naturally.
