Homeless teen turned pin-up mannequin exhibits abdomen after ‘chopping off’ enormous tattoo
A model who overcame homelessness has showed off her new-look stomach after “cutting off” part of her huge abdominal tattoo.
Content creator Bianca Blakley dresses as a pin-up and regularly wows her 11.6million TikTok fans with her sexy outfits. The 26-year-old previously told the Daily Star her career choice is a way of dealing with her dark past.
One of six children, Bianca’s childhood was tumultuous. Not only was she bullied in school but her parents eventually divorced and her older brother died of brain cancer. “I was a foster kid in the system for many years and I was homeless for a brief period. I was a teen mum who worked two jobs, I had no family to support me,” she said.

Bianca, who goes by the username PinupPixieTM on social media, has recently undergone surgery to remove excess skin around her tummy. Doing so forced the partial removal of her incredible ink work, which she has now detailed on Instagram.
In a before and after video, Bianca began by posing prior to the procedure, lifting her top to reveal her all of her multi-floral etching. The clip then cuts to the model in a revealing lime green two-piece.
She pulled down her shorts to reveal the extent of the procedure, with a neat scar clearly visible across the bottom of her waist – chopping the lower regions of her tattoo. She simply captioned the clip: “An example of how much skin was cut off.”
Some followers asked why she opted for the surgery. One said: “I don’t understand why this was done, can someone please explain?” Another said: “It looks so similar. She didn’t have a lot of excess skin.”
But, someone else explained: “The amount of tattoo gone shows how much skin was loose so that’s why she wanted it gone. It must have bothered her and wanted it more defined and tight to show her shape better.”
