[[Nick Zedd]] wrote in his autobiography, ''[[Totem of the Depraved]]'', that she relocated to Minneapolis, before moving back to New York City after a short romance with German musician [[Blixa Bargeld]] of [[Einstürzende Neubauten]] and [[Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds]]. She resumed her film career in 2005, appearing in the Mike Etoll film ''Sewer Baby.''
