The Doll Life’s reality star Audra says the nudes in her new coffee table photography book Ultra Happy Alarm are tasteful art, not “fetish porn.”
The season premiere of MyxTV’s The Doll Life, “Audra Has a Dirty Secret,” sees the kawaii model being accused of doing “fetish porn.”
“Nothing could be farther from the truth,” reads the press statement. “Of course it was a competitive model who engaged in this anti-feminist body-shaming. The kind of nude photography Audra does professional modeling for is the sort you would find in coffee table books.
Audra recently launched Kickstarter program for her hardcover coffee table book Ultra Happy Alarm, which will be published by Blue Blood press. The book include the colorful illustration Audra does for clothing brands, video games, rave flyers, and her friends. It will also include her personal photos of her stylish kawaii adventures in the US and Japan.
The Ultra Happy Alarm coffee table book will contain nude photography showcasing Audra’s “bubbly fun personality and whimsical personal style,” according to the press statement.
“When she chooses photographers to do professional modeling for, Audra works with people like Clix, Forrest Black, and Amelia G, all of whom are best known for how active they are in the electronic dance music, goth-industrial, and other music subcultures. Because her work involves her own artistic expression, Audra is drawn to projects involving alternative fashion, stuffed animal plushes, and a lot of desserts. All sweet, just like Audra herself is.”
Audra is a fashion model Dolldelight as well as many Harajuku-inspired clothing designers. She has also appeared on the Fickle Wish livestream. She was also a reporter for NHK television’s Kawaii International.
Blue Blood publishes beautifully produced, innovatively designed, artistically photographed, distinctively illustrated, intelligently-written, subculture publications, which challenge the status quo.
