  • Emily Bellerose from Australia is heating things up!

    Emily Bellerose from Australia is heating things up!

    Things are heating up down under even though it is winter in Australia as we feature the sexy Emily Bellerose from Sydney. Enjoy reading Emily’s responses in this fun interview and admire her beauty at every angle in this hot feature!

    SimplySxy: Hi Emily, it’s a great pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Emily: Hello! Aw it’s a pleasure for me to be featured on SimplySxy, so thank you! I’m very bad at introductions but my name is Emily Bellerose, I’m a huge animal lover (especially ducks) and I’m from Sydney, Australia. I’m nineteen but I look twenty-nine haha, and I am absolutely obsessed with puns!

    2

    SimplySxy: Where did your interest in modelling come from and begin?

    Emily: Growing up, I’ve always wanted to be something that was either in the entertainment business or someone who was in the spotlight. It went from wanting to be an actress, a singer and eventually a runway model.. until I realised that I was nowhere near meeting the height requirements. I decided to try out import modelling because it seemed so fun and confidence boosting and now I love it and hope that I can eventually model for a living!

    3

    SimplySxy: Can you tell us 3 fun facts about yourself?

    Emily: Hmm, well this may seem a little odd and weird to a lot of people but I’m actually double jointed in my entire body! I can do weird things like body skips, rotate my hand 360 degrees and so much more. People get so grossed out though, but it’s fun to show off my wacky skill. As I mentioned before, I’m a huge animal lover and love ducks so much that I actually don’t eat them at all! Not to say I haven’t eaten them before but when I got to the age of around ten, I had a moment of realisation and just stopped eating them completely. And last but not least, my blood type is AB which is one of the rarest blood types, and the blood type with the weirdest personality apparently!

    4

    SimplySxy: Do you have a fitness regime to staying in such fabulous shape?

    Emily: Once upon a time, I used to hit the gym quite often but after my membership expired I’ve just been working out at home. I generally just do some squats and abdominal workouts but I do love vegetables so that keeps me quite healthy. Broccoli is my favourite!

    5

    SimplySxy: What is the naughtiest thing you have ever done and not regret?

    Emily: Haha! I’m very much a good girl so I don’t think I’ve done anything too naughty? Especially since I’m still only nineteen but in the past I’ve done silly things like get piercings behind my parent’s backs and then get kicked out of the house but nothing that a normal teen hasn’t done!

    6

    SimplySxy: Have you experienced any bad pickup lines from guys before?

    Emily: I’ve had occasions where guys have tried to convince me to eat with them or scare me by appearing out of nowhere but surprisingly no! I do know a funny anti-pickup line that actually happened though… Here in Sydney, our phone numbers begin with 04 so one time my friend witnessed a guy ask a girl for her number. She told him 042… Sexy for you, and just walked off! I’ve yet to try that haha!

    7

    SimplySxy: Are you more of a lingerie or bikini girl?

    Emily: I think I’m more of a lingerie girl because there are so many more styles of lingerie. Lingerie makes me feel more classy and fancy than a bikini does but there is always a time and a place for whatever it is you’re wearing and as long as you’re wearing it with confidence, then that’s all that matters.

    8

    SimplySxy: Which is your favourite body part?

    Emily: Legs!! You can never go wrong with a pair of long legs in a skirt, shorts and even a pair of jeans. I think a pair of legs are attractive in a more subtle way compared to a pair of boobs or a nice ass and that’s what makes them extra nice.

    9

    SimplySxy: Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions on SimplySxy, Emily. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?

    Emily: It was my pleasure! Many people define “sexy” in different ways but I don’t think sexy should be defined specifically to a certain look or body type. To me, “sexy” is to have confidence shine through and to have a lovable personality to go with it! “Sexy” shouldn’t be wearing revealing clothes or even lingerie because people can look “sexy” even covered up in the winter. So I think that to be sexy is to be someone with confidence and personality; looks are only a bonus!

  • When Lesbians Marry Gay Men – ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival

    When Lesbians Marry Gay Men – ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival

    On its third day of event, ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival (ShPFF) brought to the audience a hefty discussion around marriage equality, with the support of Consulate General of Switzerland in Shanghai. The ‘Documenting Marriage’ panelists were filmmaker Yuan Yuan, Swiss Consul General Sacha Steiner and Scott Chang, who made headlines last year after marrying his British boyfriend in Beijing, China.

    Screening were Chinese documentary Our Marriages: When Lesbians Marry Gay Men and Swiss docu-drama The Circle. The Taste of Memory – Their Tomato was also screened as part of ShPFF’s support for local filmmaking talents.

    Our Marriages: When Lesbians Marry Gay Men follows two lesbian couples in their twenties, who founded an online forum for contract marriages. An unusual and often hilarious observation piece, the films exposes the audience the complicated reality of contract marriage in China. The director, Yuan Yuan, opened up the discussion by pointing out marriage as a cultural phenomenon is more of a performance than an institution of actual meanings.

    mmexport1434643496402

    Scott Chang shared his personal experiences of marriage, offering that he liked the tradition and valued it as an expression of love. The figure of 60million gay men in China being married to heterosexual women startled him, he said.

    Sacha Steiner, who opened the evening with a powerful proclamation of support for LGBTQ globally, and a reminder of the places were equality is far from achieved, spoke about his decision to bring Teddy Award winning The circle to Shanghai.

    The Circle is the story of the first legally married same-sex couple in Switzerland. Through recreated scenes from the early involvement in magazine and ball circuit ‘Der Kries’, they share how their love and lives have grown in the face of adversity.

    ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival will continue with glamor until Sunday, June 21st, featuring a series of screenings, panel discussions, and a filmmaking workshop, attempting to shed a rainbow of acceptance and love to the rainy season of the city. More information and a downloadable digital program can be found at www.shpride.com/films.

    SimplySxy: Hi Erin, thanks for taking the time to answer our questions. How did you start out into modelling?

    Erin: I have always wanted to become a model. I never thought it was possible though. When I was younger I got asked to do a shoot with a local photographer and from there I just kept shooting. Here I am now with over ten publications which is more than I ever thought was possible.

  • Tilly Mc Reese is one hot Irish babe

    Tilly Mc Reese is one hot Irish babe

    Meet Tilly McReese, Ireland’s one and only Playboy model in all her sexy glory!

    SimplySxy: Hi Tilly, thanks for taking your time to answer our questions! Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from.

    Tilly: Thank you for having me! I grew up in south west Ireland in county Limerick. Straight after university (I did a BA in Applied Languages), I went on a working vacation to New York and fell in love with America and its people. At the same time, I played piano in a bar in Times Square but I fell into another form of entertainment shortly thereafter when my partner and I moved to Virginia.

    SimplySxy: How did your career in modelling begin?

    Tilly: It was after a chance encounter with a very talented photographer named Ryan Kerns that my career in modeling began. After our initial shoot, he gave me pointers and showed me the pictures, so I could learn from my own moves what worked and didn’t work for my body and face. Then, he introduced me to Pepper Kester, who took me under her wing, basically! It was an exciting, whirlwind start to the best career I could imagine. I am forever indebted to those two.

    1

    SimplySxy: Which genre of modelling do you enjoy most?

    Tilly: My favorite genre of modeling is adult modeling. Aside from the larger pay cheque, it is wonderfully whimsical. We always joke on set that the plot doesn’t matter, so ad lib as much as you like and if the words you speak sound totally corny (and sometimes pun-laden), even better! It’s fantasy. None of the viewers should be criticizing the plot (or lack thereof) as they are pleasuring themselves, realistically. I’, also impressed by the way a scene partner and I will cooperate during scenes in a way that is so slick, it’s not noticed by viewers. I’ve helped models out of skinny jeans, held their hair to the side as they go down on me (so their face is seen)..I’ve even gently removed off a model’s false eyelashes once, since they were falling off on both sides. They are all very deliberate moves but if you do them in a sexy way (like with the jeans) or hide them altogether (as in the eyelashes) it goes unnoticed.

    SimplySxy: How was the experience shooting for Playboy like?

    Tilly: Shooting for Playboy was a really, really fun experience. The location was really beautiful and laid back. It was a villa in the country outside of LA with a rustic, open plan design and a lovely garden. Holly Randall was a joy to work with and I loved watching her and my makeup artist Ricardo Ferrise doing their thing. I had a great crew behind me that day.

    3

    SimplySxy: The naughtiest thing you have done is?

    Tilly: Had sex on a rooftop of an apartment block in Brooklyn, New York. The skyline at sunrise was so romantic.

    SimplySxy: Has there been an embarrassing moment in your life that actually seems funny now?

    Tilly: My brother once came across a video that was definitely not for his eyes, as he was flicking through pictures on my laptop. I was there with him and my heart stopped but he kept moving and eventually, I was able to laugh at it.

    2

    SimplySxy: What are the types of lingerie you simply can’t do without in your wardrobe?

    Tilly: When it comes to lingerie, I love silk and lace…luxurious materials. I have a bra and panty set by Agent Provocateur that I’m quite attached to. I also like teddies, especially for shoots.

  • Iridescence, love, glamor – ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival

    Iridescence, love, glamor – ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival

    Iridescence, love, glamor – ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival (ShPFF) launched its opening on Sunday 14th June at one of the city’s most historic theatres, The Pearl. Organized entirely by volunteers, ShanghaiPRIDE is able to bring a part of its cultural traditions to a whole new level in its 7th year with the launch of ShPFF. With an immensely diverse audience crowd from within and outside of China and the attendance of industry professionals, the opening night was a huge success.11220913_749452805178268_4275903106542681009_n

    Cheng Peipei, the renowned mainland-born Hong Kong actress, also made her way back to her hometown in support of the first public screening of her work Lilting in China. The spotlight was shared by short film A Straight Journey: Days and Nights in Their Kingdom, winner of Best Film in the ShPFF  2015 short film competition. The directors were in attendance, Beijing duo masamojo.

    A Straight Journey: Days and Nights in Their Kingdom represents the strongest voice in this year’s short film competition of ShPFF and takes home two major awards: Best Film Award and Queer Vision Award. It is ShPFF’s mission as well as challenge to support and provide a platform for emerging Chinese filmmakers in queer cinema worldwide. As part of that commitment, ShPFF will send masamojo’s film to Iris Prize (UK) for a chance to win £30,000 in production funds.1907532_749452531844962_732573035012238867_n

    The night also announced a complete list of award winning short movies, all of which will be screened free to the public throughout the week at different venues of the city.

    During the screening of Lilting, Cheng Peipei sat at the balcony as the audience below dived into the melancholy of her character in the film. The crowd broke into waves of applause as Peipei walked up to the stage afterwards for a Q&A. When asked about the theme of the work, Cheng Peipei expressed that the Lilting had transcend the mere discussion of sexuality and self-identity, but rather touched the core of all barriers among people, which is a lack of communication and the refusal to accept love. The response largely resonated with ShPRIDE’s theme for the year: Love is Our Future.
