The architect Frank Lloyd Wright is credited with the quote, “Tip the world over on its side and everything loose will land in Los Angeles.” While that observation may have been true during Wright’s lifetime, in the 21st century we are witnessing a very different dynamic.
The term “Escape from LA” is no longer just the title of an unnecessary sequel to a great dystopian action movie. Escaping LA, and California in general, is an urgent strategy for many residents of the now-tarnished Golden State.
When even flamboyant celebrities are abandoning the entertainment capital of the world for the good life in a red state, it’s a sign the prestige of California is gone.
Reality TV star and tattoo artist Katherine von Drachenberg, better known as Kat Von D, recently joined the exodus from LA after buying a house in Indiana.
Von D became famous after starring in two TLC reality shows about the counterculture of tattoo art: “Miami Ink,” which premiered in 2005, and her own spinoff, “LA Ink,” which ran from 2007 to 2011.

She looks like someone who might fit right into a stereotypical dystopian environment. Her style exemplifies the goth subculture, a look that entertainment site CBR describes as “dark and bold makeup, black clothing and flashy jewelry.”

But looks can be deceiving. Von D is a wife, mother, entrepreneur, singer and children’s book author who must have wanted a better life for her family. That required leaving California.

“We’re planning on getting out of LA 100 percent,” she recently told Fox News.
Von D and her husband put their California home up for sale for $11 million, according to the outlet.
In December 2020, she revealed they bought a 12,000-square-foot, 35-room mansion in Vevay, Indiana.
“We fell in love with the town and the nature,” Von D said.
Maybe looks aren’t too deceiving;…
