I looked for pictures but it would appear there is a porn star with the same name  :o

Here's a site about the singer:

I'm pretty sure she recorded a duet with Lemmy once...

I love that picture of Jim nd the Flying V, i have it as my wallpaper on my work computer.  

as for costumes...can you pull off a pat benatar? (there are a few fun looks you can work as her)  or can you grow a lions mane, toss on a "visit bermuda" shirt and go as Jim?
