Kandie Monaee: The Value of Authenticity in Camming |
In the ever-crowded world of cam models, standing out from the crowd is more difficult than ever. As a result, many cammers try to develop unique twists to their personas, in order to grab people’s attention and get them to watch (and pay for) their performances. Chaturbate camgirl Kandie Monaee has one such hook, but it’s anything but a gimmick. Instead, âI stay authentic and true to self,â she told YNOT. âPeople enjoy my personality, so it makes their experience in my cam room fun and addictive.â Monaee started camming when she turned 18, when she made her first foray in the working world. âI found cam while looking online for jobs that I could do from home,â she explained. âItâs the first job that Iâve ever had, so I literally watched for days until I decided that it was something I could be good at.â She has proven to be good at it, indeed, quickly becoming an in-demand, financially successful camgirl âsuccess that has caught her by surprise. âI never expected to be a part of a real cam community, so going to events and expos definitely remind me of how far Iâve come,” Monaee said. Despite earning a living from camming, Monaee said âI think the biggest thing for me is actually making friends. I never expected to connect with other cam models on the level that I have.â The secret to this camgirlâs success? Kandie Monaee attributes it to staying focused on her goals, no matter what happens. âSuccess could happen overnight or it could take weeks/months,â Monaee said. âIt comes down to staying focused and motivated. Don’t get discouraged or pay too much attention to others.â As many in the cam space have observed, the onset of COVID-19 hasnât hurt Monaeeâs business. In fact, âfor me it has been great,â she said, adding that âthe shutdown has caused a lot of people to stay home and lots of people are now working from home, so I’ve been able to meet goals a lot faster than before.â Her success hasnât come without a cost, however. âI love cam but as most may know, not everyone in your life will be so accepting,â Monaee said. âIâve had to cut a lot of people off — including my own family â for not respecting the work I do.â As for 2021 and beyond? âI have so many plans for my future!â Monaee enthused. âNumber One is to follow my dreams and have some kind of career in law that allows me to help those who really can’t afford to help themselves.â So, what advice does this Chaturbate star have for aspiring camgirls? âI definitely would tell them to take it slow,â Monaee replied. âDo as much research as possible before jumping into anything. If they decide itâs something they can do and accept for themselves then go for it! Itâs the best choice Iâve made.â |
