The story of a college student with an unusual way to pay her bills, this is some good Lifetime entertainment that talks about the reality of working as a cam girl. A woman named Alice (played by Antonia Liskova) makes the decision to use her looks to make money online as a cam girl and recruits two friends to help her. They start by setting up an account on a cam site and get to work trying to attract regular viewers, encourage new ones, and keep the whales coming back for more.
It turns out that it’s not as easy as it looks to be a cam girl. These girls have to pay for the equipment, rent their rooms, and then there are the expenses of the site that takes half of whatever tips are left. Then they have to buy the lingerie and toys, and pay attention to their public chats and private messages from viewers. They also have to think about their kinks and what kind of shows they want to do.
There is a lot of pressure to maintain a top spot. Viewers will leave the show if they are not satisfied or entertained. Eventually, they will even stop tipping entirely. There is also a lot of pressure to add new things to the show to keep it fresh.
While there is a lot of talk about how fake these kinds of videos are, it’s still quite interesting to see what goes on in the rooms and the relationships between cam girls. Madeline Brewer is a real star and it’s great to see her on screen in something that doesn’t feel like a documentary.
