Interview: GodsGirls Set Out to Improve on the Alt-Porn Model

Alt-porn sites are big business these days. These sites eschew the traditional notion of big hair, big lips, and big tits, instead focusing on other body mods: tattoos, body piercing, and waist training. Playboy Playmates are out; emo girls are in.

Ever since the success of Suicide Girls a few years ago, dozens of alt-porn sites have popped up, all trying to expand on and improve the alt-porn business model. One site that has done so with impressive success is GodsGirls.com. Here, site owner Annaliese tells us why you should be a Gods Girl.

What inspired you to start GodsGirls? When did it start? How did you get it rolling?

I started GodsGirls because I felt that the alt-porn market was severely under-served and that what it did have to offer was pretty unimpressive. I think adult websites suffer from a lack of style in a lot of cases. I wanted to kick it up a notch, so to speak. I was lucky enough to have a close friend of mine, who had unyielding faith and finances, back my idea & get it off the ground. Here we are two years later.

Who was the first GodsGirl (or first "batch")? How did you land her/them?

Ah, it's been awhile since then. Most of the initial girls that shot for GodsGirls were girls I knew personally or was acquainted with from partying in Hollywood. Kayla-Jane was our first model followed (in probably very wrong order) Seniel, Katie, Veronica, Helena, Pia, Adrianne, Malaya and others. We have always been really lucky to work with really beautiful and interesting girls.

What is the meaning behind the name, GodsGirls?

"God's Girls" is the name of a song by a band called Scarlet Grey that is out of Los Angeles. They have a new record out now, a totally independent release. I'm really proud of them. The song goes something like, "Well I never knew one / But I never had to / And I always saved one / But I never never never gave into one."

Do you ever get tired of sharing your loft with hot girls?

Absolutely, there have been times when I wanted to rip out my hair because I was trying to work and I had 10 giggling girls in my living room talking about boys or comparing boobs. But in the end I have created something that I am really proud of with these girls and I wouldn't trade my time or memories with them for anything.

What is your men-to-women member ratio? How many GodsGirls do you have?

I’d say it's slightly more male than female but we definitely have a very active female-fan following. As of today there are 170 gorgeous, unique women featured as GodsGirls.
