http://milakeliving.com/archives/2011/LakeLivingWeb1-2011.pdf Page 12: Pinked-up Ypsi Girl shows her conser vative side By James David Dickson Tayna Brown is a cult hero to viewers of Ann Arbor’s public access network. In the early-to-mid 90s she was “Safety Girl” – blonde, long of leg, big on personality. In 2009, more than a decade after her controversial, local sex-in-the-city “ish”, alter ego left the local airwaves, Brown re-emerged as the “Ypsi Girl,” a pink-wigged socialite who overturns the gems in Ypsilanti for her Ann Arbor viewership.
[edit] In the news
- Nearly a decade after Brown's no-holds-barred public access sex education program "Getting Curious With Safety Girl," left the local airwaves, she has recast herself as "Ypsi Girl", a pink-wig-and-black-tutu-wearing woman about town determined to change the perception of Ypsilanti, one CTN viewer at a time.

- In a women’s bathroom down the hall from Ann Arbor’s Community Television Network office, Safety Girl is dressing for her December show. She puts on a Santa Girl outfit — a bright red dress with white frills, thigh-high black boots, fishnet stockings, a dog collar, chains hanging off her black belt, and a red hat with feathers dangling down her back.
- "I hope I don’t make you uncomfortable or anything," she says with uncharacteristic modesty. I look up from my notebook, and she’s topless, struggling to put on a corset. "I’ll just keep asking questions," I say.
