JAKARTA - The Brazilian influencer claims to have undergone hymen surgery and wants to sell his virginity through a lottery. This news sparked controversy because he was thought to promote sexual exploitation.
Ana Otani, a YouTuber and running an adult content subscription service, said she wanted to make money from having sex with unknown men.
The announcement was made by his friend Diego Aguiar in a video he uploaded.
"Japa, my friend, underwent surgery to reconstruct the hymen. In other words, he's still a virgin again," said Diego about the Japanese-Brazilian model.
"She is the only experienced virgin in the world, and we will soon be raffling this virginity," he continued.
"This will be the first virginity lottery, and you can apply for a very, very small amount, because I want everyone to have the chance to have Japanese virgins in their life."
However, the clip received strong reactions as some people accused Ana of encouraging sexual exploitation.
Ana replied on Twitter and defended herself, saying: "I am a virgin girl! And I want to do this raffle. That's my body! My rules!
"I wanted to have sex with a stranger. However, he knew me and he wanted me so badly that he bought a raffle ticket!
"The only difference from a one night stand is that I'll come to my senses and I'll get the money!"
Ana and Diego also posted a video from the seaside resort Jurere Internacional in the southern Brazilian city of Florianopolis, where Diego acknowledged the support and criticism it received.
He also denied allegations of calling himself a pimp, meaning he could face one to four years in prison and a fine. Unlike prostitution, pimping is illegal in Brazil.
It is unclear if the raffle is genuine or a publicity stunt to raise Ana and Diego's profile as the pair haven't started selling raffle tickets yet and they haven't set a date to do so.
This isn't Ana Otani's first time making headlines. He was recently detained by police while trying to set fire to the headquarters of California TV, which produces his erotic videos, in the northeast city of Natal.
