"Dallas Morning News" Article (October 8, 2006)
From 2003 to 2005, she played Jami Deadly, star of "Deadly Cinema" on the University of North Texas' cable television station, NTTV.
As a bubblegum-pink version of horror movie host "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark", Jami Deadly lived in a cemetery with her friends, including a severed head, wacky neighborhood zombie and her boyfriend, a werewolf.
Her on-air wardrobe included a polka-dot bikini, pink beret and "Leave It To Beaver"-style dresses.
Now the bad-movie tribute series has its own cult following, and Ms. Edwards has appeared as Jami Deadly in magazines and horror movie conventions.
Although it might seem a strange combination – Marilyn impersonator and B-movie maven – Ms. Edwards sees a connection.
"I always cheer on the underdog," she said. "I like to understand the creatures that are most misunderstood, the ones people haven't given a chance."
