"I've been a camgirl for 16 years and make GBP1k a day"[1]

A camgirl says she makes GBP1k a day granting weird requests to men - and even gets her daughter involved. Char Borley, 41, has been in the sex industry since she was 18 - starting as a Playboy model before turning to OnlyFans and webcamming. She says being a camgirl is a 24/7 job - and she receives a lot of strange requests from punters, like "breaking wind into the camera", laughing at them and calling them "naughty boys".

Even her daughter, Tia, 23, occasionally gets involved by humiliating Char's clients who ask for it - and is proud of her "empowering" mum. She estimated she makes GBP1k a day and has used it to put her daughter through private school and university, as well as buy a brand new Audi Q3 and business class holidays. A lot of Char's punters have watched her content for 16 years - and many have bought her expensive gifts, she says.

One of them spent GBP18k on three holidays for her - all in the same month. While another spent GBP6k on a trip to Bali, and flew her out business class. They lavish her in designer handbags - spending, on average, GBP5k per bag - which she sells and donates to dog charities.

Char, from Suffolk, said: "Webcamming and streaming is so liberating for me - I've done it most of my career. "It's so convenient - you can do it from anywhere, work your own hours - it's fun. "It's given me so many different opportunities - I can provide for my family and give them everything I never had, I've been able to send Tia to private school and put her through uni. "She's got her degree in computer science from the University of Essex - and she doesn't have any debts. I've paid them all off. "But the niches are very wide-ranging - I've even had men as young as 18 and as old as 76 asking to call me 'mummy!" Char realised at 16 she didn't want to follow a traditional career path, so she began modelling for school uniform catalogues part-time - and was "bullied rotten" for it in school. As soon as she hit 18, she began glamour modelling - and was quickly scouted by Playboy and Page Three.

She said: "It was freeing - I was really shy when I was at school, and I found modelling clothes very boring. "Glamour modelling was very exciting and fun - it was entertainment for myself, I didn't just have to stand rigid while photographers were snapping pictures." Char switched from glamour modelling to webcamming in 2007 - and started receiving a mix of requests. "I didn't want to just sit there and make it feel forced - I know how to talk to people," she added. "It's important for fans to know you're a real person - and if they really want you, they'll pay the price. "My highest-paying niche by far is 'mummy' - one of my clients pays GBP6k out-of-pocket just for me to chat with him and treat him like a naughty boy. "A lot of men really like to be told off. This one guy told me he was broadcasting our call on his TV screen - I told him he was bad, and he ripped the entire TV out of the wall just to please me. "He said, 'I don't deserve the TV - I'll never do it again!" A number of Char's fans ask to be humiliated - and often send her photos wearing women's lingerie. Tia often gets involved by sending voicenotes laughing at the photos and mocking the men - something she says was her idea originally.

Tia said: "I didn't really have reservations at first, it was just a thing that mum did. "But we'd sit together in the bedroom, watching TV sometimes while these photos were coming through and we'd basically just laugh down the phone. "I decided to join in because it is funny, it's pathetic and it's opened my eyes up to how men can be. "If anything, I've learnt a lot about how different the world can be by mum doing it. It was really easy to get involved because it just happened by accident. "Most of the time, I'll laugh and just tell them how pathetic they are." But some fans' requests have nothing to do with being dominated - with one repeatedly asking Char to eat cheese and onion sandwiches. She said: "Farting is huge at the moment.

Some guys like me to just sit there and eat a lot of cheese and onion sandwiches, in the hope it'll make me windy. "They love all of that stuff - it's very voyeuristic, they like watching women doing un-womanly things. "There's also something called IgnoreCam - where they'll dial me, and I'll pick up as if I have no idea who they are. "I'll say things along the lines of - 'what the f**k do you want?' and just sit there, ignoring them. They really seem to get off on that." She often makes GBP50k a month with webcamming - but inflation has meant her salary has taken a dip - with her lowest earnings this year being GBP12k in one month. But the job can be demanding - and Char admits she rarely gets a break, having different alarms set up for seven different time zones.

She said: "I have to be available in the morning for my UK-based clients. I'll have a cup of tea in between calls, before going to bed at 12pm. "At 3pm, I wake up - spend an hour on my hair and makeup, then at 4pm it's time for the US shift. "My fans know I have to get some sleep - but they're spread out across the UK, US, Dubai and Australia. If I get a call at 3am, I know I probably need to answer it. "I'm not just someone they call to get them off - I'm a therapist and a friend, too.

Some of these men have been with me for 16 years - a lot of them talk to me about their life troubles. "One guy even told me about his close relative, who'd recently died.

He didn't want me to do anything but sit, and look pretty, and listen. "It's definitely not a parasocial relationship - yes it's behind a screen, but there's a lot of care there."
