A former corporate tech worker says she left a “comfortable” but sexless relationship after discovering ultra-exclusive sex parties via an online search later earning thousands performing
Bella Nicole was once the picture of corporate stability, navigating the high-pressure professional environment of corporate tech. By night, she returned to a comfortable, monogamous relationship that looked perfect on paper.
Beneath the surface, however, she was suffocating in a sexless dynamic that felt more like living with a roommate than a partner. “I stayed in that relationship way too long because it was comfortable,” Bella admitted.
“We were best friends, but it slowly turned into a roommate situation; he just wasn’t that interested in sex.” She continued: “I kept thinking, ‘He’s a guy, I’m a woman who wants it, he’ll change.’
“But you can’t change people, and you definitely can’t ask them to change like that.” The turning point came from something as ordinary as a Google search.
Restless and searching for a spark, she began looking for something that made her feel alive. “I actually found the first lead on Yelp, of all places,” she laughs.
“I was looking up strip clubs to hang out with some friends and stumbled onto a promotional page for this exclusive underground event.” She further revealed: “I watched a promo video on their website and remember being so drawn to this scene of a few beautiful people having sex on a table in front of an audience.
“I was like, ‘Holy s***, I want that. I hadn’t experienced that exhibitionism at that level before, but I knew immediately it was something I wanted to do.”
The entry into this world was far from a simple guest list. To even be considered for these events, Bella (@heybellanicole) underwent a fairly rigorous screening process to become a live performer.
She recalled: “They obviously had to make sure that I looked the part physically. Part of that screening process before they even let you show up is: ‘send us your Instagram, send us some sexy pictures.’
“They can be in a bikini, just so we can see what your body looks like.” Despite her corporate background, Bella admits she entered the audition with a mix of nerves and a desire to be accepted.
She said: “I remember thinking in my head, ‘Oh my god, I really hope they let me in,’ which in retrospect, now that I’m older is the craziest thing for a 21-year-old female to ever think about. They asked a few questions like, ‘how did you find us?’ and ‘why do you want to do this?’
“I didn’t really think about why I specifically wanted to join and definitely didn’t rehearse an answer to that question. So I told them the honest truth, that I wanted to explore my sexuality and this looked like a really fun way to do so.”
While the world she was entering was populated by seasoned professionals, Bella was an anomaly. She admitted: “For the most part, nearly all of the performers were sex workers.
“They were doing it for the money or in hopes of finding a potential sugar daddy. I was one of the only people with a corporate job, everyone else either had a sugar daddy or worked as an escort.
“That was simply how they made their income. They were the nicest people I’ve ever met, honestly.
“So much nicer than corporate.” Her first audition took place in a Beverly Hills mansion filled with hundreds of flickering candles, bathed in a dark, mysterious vibe.
It was here that she was offered her first role as a “human table”. She recalled: “The position involved being blindfolded fully naked, on all fours in heels, at the entrance.
“I had a tray on my back with 20 flutes of champagne. I wasn’t allowed to move or speak for an hour while the absolute elite of LA walked in.
“These weren’t just random people; these were doctors, high-profile attorneys, and A-list celebrities. I realised then that I loved it when people stared at me.” She further shared: “I spent years cultivating the persona of the composed corporate powerhouse, but there is an irony in realising that standing fully exposed, vulnerable and stripped of the suit, commanded a level of raw authority no boardroom ever could.
“It wasn’t about being an object; it was about being the most powerful presence in the room without saying a single word. I liked hearing that they were turned on by seeing me in that position, and I enjoyed the fact that couples were there and getting turned on and being able to be intimate with each other.”
These parties, which cost couples between $5,000 and $10,000 (£4,000 to £7000) to attend, are incredibly private and exclusive. Phones are confiscated at the door, and the mansions are stripped of standard furniture, replaced with custom pieces designed specifically for the night.
“At every sex party at midnight, there’s a big show,” Bella said. “Before midnight, everybody’s a bit uptight, they’re just trying to drink and get situated because most people are pretty nervous.
“Watching people have sex is what really kicks the party off.” She explained: “I remember my first performance on a swing-like structure in the centre of the living room.
“It went from level 0 to 100 in seconds. I was performing high-concept acts in front of a 100-person crowd.
“The air in the room would literally change; you could feel the tension and the curiosity peaking. It was my first non-vanilla experience, and I was obsessed.
“I knew right then that I could never just go back to my normal life.”
Bella added: “I realised I loved the performative aspect of it. I was nervous, but also really turned on.
“I was having so much fun turning people on and just being so sexual. I knew then that this was something I definitely wanted to pursue.”
She said: “It’s like you don’t know what you don’t know. I’d been watching [adult movies] from a young age, but ironically, due to my lack of search terms, the internet never brought me to the crazy stuff.
“It was very vanilla. My partners probably never even considered that I might be interested in experimenting or trying new things.”
For a long time, Bella held onto her corporate job, carefully balancing two vastly different identities without letting either slip. But as she immersed herself deeper into the world of sex parties, her sexuality began to expand in ways she hadn’t imagined—until she ultimately made the move to [use a popular adult content platform] full-time.
For the world’s most famous faces, these parties represent the only space on earth where they aren’t being watched by a lens. Bella said: “That was obviously a big reason why celebrities would come, when you think about it, there are very few public or semi-private spaces where you aren’t allowed to have a phone out.
“People at the highest levels, actors, singers, comedians, all of the above, come there. You have to enter with a mask, but that’s so cheesy, people take it off almost immediately.
“Seeing a celebrity never really did much for me, but it was fascinating to see them in this environment.” Bella continues to frequent these exclusive circles.
