LOS ANGELES — The girls from Studio 20 are celebrating International Friendship Day.
According to the company, for sport fans, “You’ll Never Walk Alone” is the slogan of an English football team. For others, “We Succeed Together” is the motto of Studio 20 — with both of these mottos being meaningful for the #girlsfromstudio20.
“Getting ready for #FriendshipDay, the #girlsfromstudio20 were asked to prepare photos with their best friends, and to our surprise, the pictures were all with other #girlsfromstudio20,” says a studio spokesperson. “That’s the moment when we smiled and realized we actually did something great: We turned what once was a very lonely job that required you to sit in front of your computer and talk to strangers all day into a sorority. We did it!”
The spokesperson says #girlsfromstudio20 started as a project to help cam models from Studio20 grow together, offering them the possibility of creating bonds, travelling together, supporting them and giving them a safe place to be.
“Of course, having girls that do the same job and are in a way competing with each other can have its downfall, but we took that chance, being firm believers that women that empower each other grow much nicer than the ones that shut each other down,” the spokesperson says. “The #girlsfromstudio20 started travelling together to industry events, cheered for one another when one of them went on stage, and you could see the happiness in their eyes every time one of them won something.”
“We saw them grow, started going out together and having fun, their income grew, their confidence grew,” the spokesperson concludes, “it was a machine that we created and it was just amazing.”
For #FriendshipDay, the studio asked a few girls to reveal what they appreciate in each other.
Raquelle Diva says: “For me, having Devious as a best friend was the greatest gift I could ever receive. We just clicked and when we opened DoubleD studio together it just felt right. She’s one of the hardest workers I know and even when she has her off days, she still can keep a smile on her face and make others feel good about themselves.”
“I was a kid starting in this industry and when I first came to Studio20, I thought it was weird that the girls were so friendly and I have to admit, I was a bit nervous to share with them my experiences and things from my life,” Megan Kroft confides. “But then I saw this amazingly beautiful woman who didn’t speak that much and that everyone admired.”
“Sassha Red has the spirit of a Russian princess trapped in the body of a goddess. It’s hard to pinpoint one thing that I appreciate about her, but if I were to choose, I’d say it’s her big heart,” Kroft adds. “She just spreads love and she’s very deep, incredibly intelligent and always the funniest.”
“MadeleneRay was this shy girl when I first met her. And I loved how she transformed into this woman full of confidence. She’s so powerful, has a great laugh and I know a great laugh when I see it because mine is just as crazy,” says AvaMistique. “I really like the way she holds herself up every time, the fact that she does it with her head held high. It’s rare to see this in someone as young as she is.”
Fans can find the girls on Twitter and Instagram using the #girlsfromstudio20 hashtag.
