Antenia Mae Dupree began life on Earth in Talladega Springs when a traveling race car auctioneer accidentally overlapped with the town’s once-a-decade meteor shower. Folks say she slipped on the oil spill outside The Wipe Power Garage (the only place to get your wipers fixed south of the Mason Dixon Line, looked up at the falling stars, and decided right then to “angle herself toward the heavens.”

Her early years were split between the Twin Swallows Deluxe Drive-In (where she was a carhop who only brought static burgers) and the Knights of Columbus bingo hall (where she filled out her own cards with Martian numerology).

Antenia’s modeling career started humbly, posing for the Nascar Sponsors “Turn Left” ad campaign. When Pillow Sins scouts spotted her performing interpretive dance at the Rotary Club Fish Fry (where her act was described as “a cross between clogging and crop-dusting”), she was ushered into stardom.

She starred in such soft-focus classics as Moon Maidens of Muscle Shoals (1982), Static Between Us (1984), and the cult Thigville midnight movie, ET Phoned, Homie (1986).

By the early 90s, Antenia had drifted from the scene, resurfacing only for the occasional UFO Conference in Muscle Shoals, where she sold autographed rabbit ears and homemade static cling sheets.

To this day, locals swear if you tilt your radio dial just right, you can still hear her sigh across the AM band.
