VNExpress-Oct 11
Ngoc Duong live-streams for at least two hours a day, and sometimes attracts thousands of viewers by striking sexy poses and gets nude on occasion. “Users can watch for free for 20 seconds. Then they have to pay an entrance fee of VND10,000-15,000 ($0.42-0.63) to get into a live stream room. I pose sexily to entice them to pay me more money in the form of gifts in the app. If they pay enough, I take off my clothes. “My record is 4,000 viewers in my room at the same time.” Showing off their bodies and getting nude on live streams has become a way for many people like Duong to earn good money. With cyberspace becoming fertile ground for prostitution, live streams have become a popular channel offering titillating content. Many apps hire attractive women to live-stream erotic content, which they sell. There is even a list of the top 20 apps of this kind, but most of them are not available on Google Play or AppStore. Users have to search for them on Google and download them from unknown websites.The apps have hundreds, even thousands, of Vietnamese women as also peers from other Asian countries like Japan and Korea ready to strip for paying customers. Women working for this app, called “idols”, earn money by showing off their bodies and with sex talk. Duong said she was doing the job because the money is good. She does not think her identity will be revealed because she too wears a face mask while live-streaming. “I am young and single, and so I am free to do this. I am willing to meet viewers’ requests if they pay. The only thing I cannot do is take off my mask because I am a freshman (at a university). I think I will do this until I graduate. If I quit now, I don’t think I can get such a well-paid job again.” Read more at: https://e.vnexpress.net/news/trend/live-streaming-fetches-handsome-income-for-women-who-dare-to-bare-4514971.html
