Models lured to sick 'Porta-Potty' Dubai parties by men lavishing them with gifts

Dubai is known for its glitzy lifestyle that draws hundreds of social media influencers and reality TV stars - but inside, there's a dark secret that has sparked concern for the welfare of women travelling to the popular tourism hotspot. Models have been lured to sick 'Porta-Potty' parties by men lavishing them with gifts as we look at inside Dubai's dark underbelly. These twisted gatherings - reportedly organised by wealthy men - lure young models and influencers with promises of tens of thousands of pounds, luxury gifts, and lavish hotel stays, reports the Mirror. ‌ But behind the glitz lies a horrifying truth, including acts of extreme sexual degradation, physical abuse, and potential legal peril for the women involved. An influencer sparked concern on TikTok after sharing extravagant gifts bought for her by a stranger she met at the gym on Wednesday. ‌ Jade, who goes by @outplayedbyjade online, is originally from France but travelled to Dubai as she documented her trip online. In her video, she explained how she had been leaving the gym when workers approached her with a gift from someone she had met on the treadmill. "I didn't think much of it," she explained in the video. A worker handed her a bouquet of flowers and chocolate from the man she had struck up a conversation with. Flattered, she texted the number he had left with the gift to thank him, after which she then received a call from a shop assistant at the luxury jewellery designer store Van Cleef & Arpels. "I'm a very curious girl, so I make my way over to the shop," she explained. "This assistant pulls out a beautiful bracelet and a matching necklace." All together, the gifts were worth around £3,000. And while Jade was over the moon with her gifts, fans were quick to warn the influencer that he was a "professional" and to "be careful" amid reports of men recruiting women for " Porta-Parties" in Dubai. ‌ There was no information to confirm the intentions of the man spoiling Jade. Maria Kovalchuk, a 20-year-old Ukrainian adult model, who was reportedly left for dead after attending one of the Porta-Potty parties. Maria vanished after telling her mother she'd been invited to stay overnight with two men claiming to be modelling agents. She never made her flight to Thailand. ‌ Ten days later, on March 19, she was found dumped at the roadside in Dubai, suffering from a shattered spine, broken limbs, and severe internal injuries. Maria has undergone multiple surgeries, and her family, now at her bedside, are desperate for answers. It's thought she is still recovering from her injuries. ‌ Dubai Police confirmed that Maria is receiving medical care, but claimed she 'entered a restricted construction site alone and fell from a height'. A statement many find hard to accept, given the disturbing rumours swirling around her disappearance. Russian lawyer Katya Gordon, who has followed the case closely, bluntly alleged: "Model Maria Kovalchuk was found dying on the side of the road in the UAE after a party. The scandal with the Porta Potty parties has been raging for over a year." Gordon and others allege that Maria may have been forced to take part in a sex act involving human faeces - a central theme of these "Porta-Potty" events, where humiliation and abuse are part of the package. ‌ These parties reportedly involve women being paid vast sums of money to perform grotesque acts involving bodily fluids, degradation and pain. Viral videos have helped expose this shadowy world, but the abuse is largely hidden by Dubai's shiny reputation and strict censorship laws. And the women involved in these parties could even find themselves prosecuted. Radha Stirling, CEO of Detained in Dubai, has warned that women involved in these parties - even against their will - could face charges of adultery or indecency, especially if married men are present. ‌ "Sex outside marriage has been legalised in Dubai, but organisers have exploited this. Women think they're attending a private party - instead, they're thrown into horrific, dangerous situations with real legal risk," Stirling said. Maria's mother told Ukrainian media: "She has no documents, no phone, nothing. She's had three operations. She can't speak. We were told she went to a party, but the promoter claims he never saw her. We're terrified of what really happened."

Zara McDermott cuddles up to Louis Tomlinson's sister at Glastonbury as romance gets family seal of approval

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ZARA McDermott has been snapped cuddling up to Louis Tomlinson's sister in a new seal of approval of her blossoming relationship with Louis. The 28-year-old has been dating the former One Direction star, 33, since March this year, with the pair looking loved up at Glastonbury Festival across this weekend. 5 Zara was seen cuddling up to Lottie in a sweet pic from Glasto Credit: instagram/@lottietomlinson 5 Lottie also shared sweet pics with brother Louis Credit: instagram/@lottietomlinson 5 Louis and Zara have ditched VIP to camp out with revellers Credit: The Sun Lottie Tomlinson, Louis's make-up artist sister, is also enjoying the revelry with fiancé Lewis Burton, and shared pictures from day one of the festival on Instagram this morning. Among the pics, Lottie is seen sharing a hug with Louis and Lewis in the Worthy Farm field, while another showed Lottie and Zara sharing a hug in front of one of the Glastonbury stages. Zara posed with a canned water in her hand in a baggy blue top, jean shorts and a baseball cap, wrapping one of her arms around Lottie's back. Lottie did the same to cuddle into Zara, posing in a white pencil-strapped top and a pair of jeans. Followers quickly shared their love of the photo collection, particularly how well Zara seems to be fitting in with the Tomlinson family. 'YOU AND ZARA ALWAYS GONNA BE THE GIRLS OF THE MOMENT' wrote one. 'YA'LL WE GOT A ZARA AND LOTTIE PIC,' noted a surprised second. A third wrote: 'Lottie and zara is the most Powerful duo EVER 😍, girls you stunning' 'Nice when your siblings and partners get along so well.😍😍' said a fourth. Zara and Louis have shunned the VIP treatment for the event, and have been seen camping out with the rest of the revellers in a small tent. Louis Tomlinson and Zara McDermott look loved up as they are spotted on holiday in Costa Rica "They looked like they were having a ball together and Louis was really affectionate towards Zara and was making sure she had everything she needed. "She was stroking his back and had a massive smile on her face,' a source said. While Louis is used to appearing on stage, it was actually Zara that was making an appearance at this year's festival, joining a panel at the Information Tent on Friday to discuss her documentary filmmaking. Louis was seen proudly looking on from the sidelines as she spoke. The couple have become more public with their relationship in the past few weeks, after getting to know each other while Zara filmed a documentary with Louis's sisters. Splitting with Sam Thompson in January after a five-year relationship, Zara kept her new romance quiet in the early weeks, with Louis also known to keep his private life away from the limelight. However, they have since made their relationship more well-known, enjoying a loved-up holiday to Costa Rica together, and Zara joining Louis in Los Angeles. 5 Lottie is at the festival with fiancé Lewis Burton Credit: instagram/@lottietomlinson

Watch: Glastonbury crowd chant ‘death to the IDF'

Is this year's Glastonbury line-up the worst ever? There's Kneecap, of course: those tough-talking IRA cheerleaders who simply LOVE revelling in the imagery of terrorist violence, right up until the point it risks costing a British state grant – or actually serving some jail time. But it seems they now have some fierce competition in the moron stakes from Bob Vylan, an English punk duo. Their music (predictably) focuses on being black in the UK and how terribly tough it is to live in one of the most prosperous, peaceful and established democracies on Earth. So with all their penetrating insight and profoundly original thought, it is no surprise that they brought their Socratic wit to the Glastonbury stage today when they entertained the crowd with their musings on the Middle East. 'Death, death to the IDF' and 'From the river to the sea' were just some of the duo's chants as they gyrated around the stage. Already it has got Tory MPs asking why the BBC chose to broadcast the performance, while others are citing it as proof of Glasto's problems with Jews. Lisa Nandy has certainly come out blazing, with her spokesman telling the Telegraph: The Culture Secretary has spoken to the BBC director-general to seek an urgent explanation about what due diligence it carried out ahead of the Bob Vylan performance, and welcomes the decision not to re-broadcast it on BBC iPlayer. So much for all that talk about love eh?
