My First Car was a 1998 Ford Contour that I spray-painted pink in my driveway. That was the start of what became an obsession — I've since owned around 20 cars, ranging from old police cruisers and hearses to multiple bright-pink Range Rovers.
In 2021, my love for motorcycles nearly cost me my life. Riding my Harley-Davidson Street Bob, I was T-boned in an accident so bad that the nurses told me I shouldn't have survived. I woke up in the hospital with a broken leg and a shattered kneecap. That crash changed me. I realized I had been given a second chance — someone, somewhere, was watching over me.
By 2023, I was ready to push forward harder than ever. That year, I was part of a film with Bam Margera (Gull Lake Vice Two) and appeared in music videos with several artists, including the rock-rap legends HED (P.E). I also did some modeling, exploring creative outlets that showed me how far I could stretch my brand.
Then came 2024 — the year everything accelerated. I bought my BMW i8, and only a few months later, I made a "big girl purchase": my Lamborghini Gallardo. That car wasn't just a vehicle. It was a symbol. A turning point. It opened doors and proved to me — and everyone watching — that I wasn't afraid to invest in myself. Around the same time, I stopped drinking, lost 45 pounds, and started putting myself first. That journey wasn't always easy. People took advantage of me. I lost friends. But I learned from my mistakes, and I kept going.
Then in June 2025, my life changed in two major ways. Just three weeks before my first-ever car show, Gears and Garters, my dad faced life- threatening medical conditions and passed away. Losing him was one of the hardest things I've ever endured. But in the middle of my grief, something shifted. I felt like he was right there beside me, guiding me. During that time, doors began to open, and my imagination flourished in ways it never had before. Part of me believes my dad helped me unlock that — that he gave me the push to open my mind and see my future differently. And when the day of my car show came, I knew he was there with me, proud.
That show wasn't just an event — it was a turning point. I blended my two passions, cars and performance, and saw how powerful my vision really was. Around the same time, I launched my merchandise line — bold, retro tattoo-inspired designs that mix racing culture with humor about life and relationships. From T-shirts to air fresheners to posters, everything I create is an extension of my personality: flashy, funny, sarcastic, and unapologetically me.
Today, I've built a six-figure career as a premium-level exotic dancer, entertainer, and entrepreneur. My shows are never ordinary - I love to bring humor and surprise, sometimes dancing to songs like "Ghostbusters” or “Puttin' on the Ritz.” I thrive on entertaining people in ways they don't expect. Between my cars, my performances, my brand, and my three wiener dogs at home, my world is a mix of grit and glamour.
How It All
Started
Hi, I'm Katie Landis — though most people know me as the girl with the pink Lamborghini.
Before the cars, the shows, and the brand, I was just a girl growing up without much. I wasn't from a wealthy household. My mom was a janitor, and my dad refinished furniture with his own company, Eagle Restorations. Both of them were gearheads at heart, with a special love for motorcycles — a passion they passed on to me.
Growing up, I didn't have many friends. I was often made fun of and never really fit in. Maybe that was the best thing that ever happened to me, because it forced me to carve my own lane.
What sets me apart isn't just what I do — it's how I got here. I wasn't handed anything. I've been doubted, underestimated, and told I'd never make it. But I never gave up. From spray-painting my first car pink to driving a Lamborghini, from a near-fatal accident to losing my dad, from heartbreak to resilience, my story is proof that vision, grit, and determination can take you anywhere. So welcome to my world - fast cars, real talk, raw humor, and unapologetic self-expression. Stick around. I promise it's going to be entertaining.
