Mum defends buying daughter Magic Mike lap dance for her 18th birthday

A mother has spoken out after facing backlash for planning to buy her daughter a Magic Mike lap dance for her 18th birthday.

OnlyFans model Carla Bellucci has been subject to intense criticism throughout her career resulting in her and her family having to move to the countryside because of the extremity of the trolling - the family having experienced death threats.

The 41-year-old has since opened up about the the backlash she's faced for agreeing to pay for - and take - her daughter, Tanisha, to Magic Mike Live for her 18th birthday to receive a lap dance.

Bellucci explained she thinks some of the 'grilling' she's faced for paying for her daughter to visit Magic Mike Live is simply because 'it's [her]' - the OnlyFans model having been heavily criticised in the past for life choices such as getting a nose job on the NHS.

However, she reassured the Daily Star: "I’ve explained to [Tanisha] how heavy these shows are and they are pretty dirty but sometimes in life you have to see something for yourself.

"She is just obsessed with it and we are going to a bl**dy strip show together. People will come in for me but if that is what she wants then so be it even though it’s a bit random.

"I don’t know if she has been inspired by the film and she’s thinking whoever the guy is will look like Channing Tatum or something. It’s not really my thing but it’s her 18th birthday."

Rather than banning her daughter from going to these sorts of events and risking her sneaking off and doing it anyway, Bellucci voiced the opinion she thinks its safer to just go with Tanisha.

"At least she’s open about it with me," she added.

The pair are also more like 'best friends' because Bellucci had her daughter so young and so have 'always had that relationship'.

Bellucci has also faced backlash for having open conversations with Tanisha about her starting an OnlyFans once she turns 18.

The mum previously said she'd rather her daughter use OnlyFans opposed to having to rely on men.

However, Bellucci has told Tanisha she should 'think hard about the decision because it does stay with you', like how she 'will forever be known as the mum on OnlyFans'.

Despite her parenting style attracting a fair share of criticism, Bellucci resolved: "[My children] are good kids.

"Anyone who meets them is probably surprised because they expect them to be hooligans or something.

"But they are good kids and whatever I do in life I am always open with them and I do teach them morals."
