In a new interview with First Coast News, MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki 
Sixx was asked about the amputee with spike prosthetic legs who was 
featured as the centerfold in his second book "This Is Gonna Hurt: 
Music, Photography, And Life Through The Distorted Lens Of Nikki 
Sixx".  

He said: "I took out an ad for an adult amputee and met Amy. I wanted 
to build spiked legs for somebody. The idea was to put her in a 
fantasy situation. When I met Amy, it was unbelievable. I mean, she's 
such an inspirational person, losing both her legs to viral 
meningitis when she was 19 years old, and what she's done with her 
life since. I wasn't just looking for someone to shoot who had no 
legs. I had the idea for these spiked prosthetics. They were really   
sharp, impossible to stand on. We made her a wig, too.
