Wiki Biography / Profile Background
Introduction :
Twiggy Tallant is helping shatter folklores that the automotive repair industry is a man’s world and is doing it with her own style, personality, and feminine mystique.
Personal Life : Parents, Family and Education
- Born on June 4, 1988, Twiggy is originally from Toronto, Canada & was initially working as a stripper in Toronto.
- She says the ‘tough skin’ she had to develop as a stripper has come in handy working in the garage around all guys. Twiggy is not embarrassed at all about stripping, and most people in Las Vegas (where she is an actress) are familiar with people making money on their looks, so she feels she doesn’t get a lot of grief from colleagues.
- The talented lady spent some time living abroad in England as well.
Career, Job, Salary and Net Worth :
- Tallant first became interested in cars while modeling with them for a Toronto event. She says she is not a ‘love at first sight’ kind of girl, but that’s what happened the first time she saw a ‘Rat Rod.’ She “just kept staring at it” and “completely stopped caring about my job, just wanting to know everything about the car.”
- Soon, she began to take some automotive courses and learn her way around the garage, never dreaming she would become a TV celebrity for her work as a mechanic. Later, she even graduated from the welding program at George Brown College.
- Twiggy first started in April 2014, at the Welder’s Up repair shop, learning the trade as a mechanic’s apprentice on the Vegas Rat Rod show.
- Twiggy is thankful for the opportunities that the Rat Rod team gave her, their patience and shadowing opportunities, and their support as she learned the art of welding.
- She has since become an owner of Steel Town Garage after seasons on the Discovery Channel show Vegas Rat Rods as the only female.
- Tallant also went on to appear at the Motorama show in her hometown and was thrilled at the fan base that turned out to support her. She has become an expert at metal fabrication and welding and is enjoying her prospects with her own garage back in Toronto.
- Twiggy is a big supporter of women in trades, using her celebrity status to encourage students to pursue classically male industries. Her community group, Hair Up, Hustle Hard is all about supporting young women as they enter and sustain their roles in these industries.
