Jessica — Feet Model

Backstage at the pole dance club I worked at, one of the regulars always asked the girls for barefoot selfies. I was maybe 23 and at first I laughed it off. Then I realized he was tipping very well for them and I started paying attention.

Hair pulling and light choking. I'm strong in my work - I throw my own body around a pole all night - so in bed I love letting someone take that strength and use it back on me. The rougher, the better.

My favorite pedicure is bright red or bold black - something that reads from the stage. The most memorable compliment: a fan told me my small wrinkled soles look like they belong to someone who knows exactly how to use her body. My favorite shoes are clear stripper platforms and strappy black stilettos.

Usually barefoot or in lace stockings. I spend half my life on a pole with no shoes so my feet feel best uncovered.

No, never. After a night of performing my feet have a very real scent and I actually find it hot. The intensity of it feels like proof of what I just did on stage.

The soles have gotten tough from years on the pole floor, but my toes are still extremely sensitive. Sucking on them is a fast way to get a real reaction out of me.

I feel admired the way I feel on stage - like the whole focus is on me and I don't have to do anything to earn it. It's a nice contrast to the work I do the rest of the time.

Yes, surprisingly ticklish between the toes. Everywhere else I can stay in control.

After a long shift on the pole my bare soles are dirty, deeply wrinkled and warm. There's a strong natural scent from dancing barefoot for hours, and the skin is slightly flushed.

Post-show requests - fans who want the sweaty barefoot content right after I step off the pole, before I wash anything. Honestly, those are some of my favorite videos to film.

I would film a backstage video straight after a pole set - camera low, me sitting on a dressing room chair in a tiny lace outfit, stretching my dirty bare soles toward the lens while I catch my breath.
