GATINEAU, Canada – A 22 year-old performer’s plans to engage in an eight-hour sex session with 25 men who’ve paid for the privilege has incensed the mayor of a small town near the Canadian capital.
Mayor Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin indicated she believes performer Zoé Zebra’s reason for the gangbang — to raise funds for breast implants — sends the wrong message to young women and girls.
“We want an image of healthy women,” Pedneaud-Jobin told Le Droit newspaper. “We don’t want young girls to have an obsession with a certain body shape that is not accessible in many cases, and the values driven by this event are contrary to all of that.”
Zebra partnered with Quebec-based production company AD4X to organize and promote what they are calling Boule-O-Thon [Ball-O-Thon in English]. The event will take place in a trailer parked beside the Club 77 gentlemen’s cabaret on Gatineau’s Main Street. Participating men will be charged $15 and must agree to be filmed.
Because the event will produce an adult film, it does not constitute prostitution under Canadian law and therefore is entirely legal, according to AD4X spokesman André de la Seine.
“The city can disagree with the events that we are doing,” de la Seine told the Ottawa Citizen newspaper. “People can dislike strip clubs, or dislike massage parlors, but we’re abiding by provincial and federal laws.”
Although the mayor disapproves, she admits that as long as local ordinances are followed, there is nothing her city can do to prevent the spectacle.
Zebra said she is eager to embark on the adventure.
“It’s my choice, and I’m not ashamed of that,” she said. “My mother is proud of me. She is happy that I’m doing what I love.”
