For two years the former Emily Born was making headlines. I interviewed her in 2014 soon after she decided to retire from modeling, but took down the interview per request of Kate Ballas herself. Kate told me one day she will open up about her story.
I was in touch with her every now and then. I actually had an idea of shooting with Kate on her terms and I was willing to go to the States or hire a photographer she could trust to launch a project that fans, me and more important Kate would be happy about. Unfortunately, internet fans took advantage of the anonymity and bullied her online. This did not help her entertain the idea of modeling again, so she quit. Finally, last month Kate Ballas wrote her story.

On her personal blog Kate tells-it-all. From how she did her first photoshoot to what led to her decision to never pose topless again. You can read the whole story on Kate’s blog. However, below I will show some fragments and comment on them. I think you all should read this, because this will give you more light of how things go behind the scenes.

Kate was contacted by a”Jack” who referred her to “George”, a not so good photographer who happened to take pictures of girls and ask them to take off their clothes. Kate lied to her family and went to meet up with this virtual unknown at an secluded area. Fortunately for Kate, the guy was not a serial killer; however, there are many wackos who pretend to be professionals and use social media to contact pretty girls to abuse them or worse.
The photos were posted on Model Mayhem and Kate’s internet fame went up. “George” offered money to give oral sex to Kate, but she refused.
She then was contacted by a guy, “Ken”, who wanted to take photos of her and sell them to a website that “nobody knows” (Note: I know what you are thinking, but I will not be able to answer your questions). Kate felt good with herself and got excited about money coming in. She then realized she went viral and she was everywhere. Her family and friends started feeling uncomfortable. She decided to have a last shoot with “Ken” and it was then when he insinuated to have sex with her. Nothing happened, but she felt really uncomfortable. After that her family found out and her world crashed down. She dropped out of college and was depressed. It took her months to find herself again and regroup. Now she has put her stuff together and is modeling -non topless- and seems to be in good terms with the ones that love her.
Note: While Kate does not bash the girls who decide to pose nude or go beyond, I think that family and buzz affect immensely what someone can do or refrain to do. It’s unfortunate that Kate was lied to. By any circumstance a photographer or producer shouldn’t lie to a girl. Even worse, by no circumstance any photographer or producer should try to harass models or pornstars. I guess you may know now why you have not seen some girls again and why they do not want to pose for other sites.
This is an excerpt from My interview with Kate
BoobsRealm.com: Sharing beautiful parts of the human body as breasts has nothing wrong for many. So many supermodels have posed topless or full nude and they are seen as celebrities, but when a bosomy natural lady poses nude people tend to criticize. Do you think society is some sort of hypocrite towards nude?
Kate Ballas: I think that for some people, being nude is completely taboo and shouldn’t be embraced. If society was different and more open minded, me being topless wouldn’t be the end of the world. I definitely think that there is hypocrisy with being nude. It’s okay that kim kardashian has a sex tape out, but every one flips out when the innocent girl next door takes some topless photos? It blows my mind.
While I respect Kate’s decision and point of view, I think there is no shame in posing nude or do porn. What matters is that all parts involve know all the details and read the fine prints as well as family is either informed or talked to be supportive.
Fans can complain or rant, but if you look back you can see that many fans did not pay the respect they should and hid on the internet to be offensive and act as complete jerks.
Kate Ballas was one of the best busty models I have seen in recent years. I think she could have been great on Pinupfiles. As I stated not long ago, I knew she could have been a star since the first time I saw her many years ago. Unfortunately for us Kate is gone, but I, on behalf of the loyal BoobsRealm.com fans, wish her the best in her future endeavours.
Kate did not want her topless photos online, so I removed them. I know you can find them anywhere, but I told Kate I was not going to publish her topless photos.
