(Los Angeles, CA / June 9, 2022) — Popular Canadian model, sex educator and content creator GoAskAlex takes center stage in the latest episode of 60 Second Docs, where she is featured in the short video, “Model with a Disability”.
In this engaging first-person profile, Alex briefly explains her daily life as the adult industry’s first and only model and performer with an ostomy – in 2019, she underwent life-altering surgery to treat her ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease – which now necessitates the use of an external abdominal pouch.
“I was doing live webcam streaming for almost a decade, but I got a little bit burned out,” muses Alex of her unconventional career that, while gratifying and pleasurable, was also incredibly demanding and often difficult to maintain on a regular basis.
“I have persistent health issues, so now I do subscription-based work; I am self-employed and an independent creator… my work, it’s a very full-time job, but it’s all entirely what I feel like doing and what I’m interested in doing.”
ABOUT GOASKALEX:
GoAskAlex is an adult model, onscreen performer and sex educator with the distinction of being the industry’s first-ever ostomate since receiving a life-changing surgery in 2019: “my small intestine was diverted out through my abdomen, and I now wear a permanent medical device.”
The auburn-haired British Columbia, Canada native – who launched her adult career in 2014 as a webcam model and online companion – has since taken the opportunity to use her high-profile platform to advocate for disabled and underrepresented bodies in adult media.
She has since been featured in
XBIZ Magazine, posing for the cover as the trade publication’s first-ever model with an ostomy, as well as Hustler E-Magazine to promote her inspiring Disabled Sex Workers Calendar. She also won 2020’s XBIZ Cam Award for Best Inked Model and 2021’s XBIZ Best Cam Model.
