Dr Mercy Li holds a PhD from the University of London and currently lives in her native Singapore
A former banker quit her corporate job to become an adult model, and her mum still doesn't know.
Dr Li holds a doctorate in business and law from the University of London and worked as a public relations manager at Citibank in her native Singapore.
However, the girl made the dramatic career change after she was approached by a scout from an adult modeling agency while she was shopping at a lingerie boutique.
She was the cover girl of FHM Australia December 2023. But in an exclusive interview, she said she feared her Chinese father and French mother would disown her if they knew the truth.
She said: "Fortunately my parents are not very tech savvy and haven't heard anything from me. To this day, they have no idea I am an adult model.
"Given the conservative views prevalent in our Asian culture, this line of work is not widely accepted and I worry that they might disown me if they find out. When someone in public says they recognize me somewhere , I often feel anxious.”
She continued: "My parents still don't know the way I really live my life. Although I dress to look like a decent girl next door, I also hide my intense sexuality.
In order to conceal her identity and have a 34DDD devil figure and an angelic face, she used stage names, such as: Dr Mercy Li, Bustysingaporean during her career as an adult model.
“Living in Singapore, I am fully aware that my choices will bring different restrictions and constraints.”
Dr Li told her parents she was leaving the bank to work as a public relations consultant, saying it would be easier given her mother's "conservative" views.
She believes the strict values instilled in her from an early age may have fostered her rebellious side.
When asked if she missed her time at Citibank, she concluded: "To be honest, I don't miss my 9-to-5 job at the bank. As an adult model, I enjoyed having men's eyes on me. The feeling that lingers on me.
"They were almost stripping me of my clothes with their eyes. Although I felt very vulnerable under such intense gaze, I have to admit that it turned me on. It was really exciting to be watched like that."
