Be in theme!
Remain professional at all times. You represent Exxxotica, Iheartbbw.com and Platinum Puzzy so keep that in mind as you explore the show and enjoy yourself.
ROCK THE STAGE AND SMILE!
Respect & get consent! It is easy in environments like this to forget that not everyone wants to be touched, fondled, spanked, flogged or the alike. We all want to have our boundaries respected so please make sure you ask for consent before you engage in physical activities with another person.
Not everyone has the same pronouns so let’s make sure if we are told that someone would like to be addressed as “they/them” or other pronouns, we are RESPECTFULLY receptive, and do our best to honor their pronouns.

THE FASHION SHOW
•All performers will meet at the booth # 962 and go to the stage together. Bring your change of clothes if you don’t want to wear what you wear on stage after the show. You can store your clothes backstage during the show or at the booth in the pink wagon NOT in the middle of the floor or in the tent during the fashion show. You are permitted to bring 1 SMALL bag. Large suitcases and big bags take up too much space for the small booth we have and are not permitted. Bring ONLY what you need. The booth is not a storage space for your items AFTER you leave the booth. Please take your items with you immediately.
•iheartBBW staff is not responsible for your items left at the booth.
•This is a GREAT opportunity to get selfies, take pictures and videos with the models and get footage. Take advantage and snap some shots!
•We are REQUIRED to be backstage 15 minutes before show time EACH day. During that time we are conducting interviews for the documentary, taking photos and getting amped to go on stage. We also take group photos immediately following the show backstage so STAY ON STAGE, snap some shots. We will then move to the booth to allow a final opportunity to take photos, buy merch and grab your business cards. Once we have finished group photo shots at the both, then you are free to take off!
•Exxxotica provides waters backstage for us!
•Arrive READY to go on stage. A dressing tent is being provided which can fit 1-2 models at a time. Please change QUICKLY. We need to make sure there is enough time for all models to change into their outfits.
•You will each be given your stage # assignment for each day as we prepare to go up on stage. Each of you will go on stage (I will tell you where to go when we are actually there). You are to walk on stage, walk to the left (stay a few seconds in each spot for photo opps and SMILE at our photographer and the audience), walk to the right of the stage (repeat the smile, look at our photographer) then back to the middle (repeat the smile, look at our photographer). When you are in the middle, that is YOUR time to get your shine on == this is YOUR moment to twerk, shake your boobs, do a little dance, drop it like it’s hot, grab the stripper pole, do the splits, do a cartwheel but you get a few seconds to show your talent and rock the stage. Once you are given the que (UP NEXT IS…..) you go to the back of the stage in the order you were called and stay on stage until I finish the last model then you all go to the front of the stage for final photo opps and video captures. I will show you who MY videographer is so you can make sure to blow the camera a kiss!! This goes by REALLY fast, so feel free to slowly work the stage and show your curves!
• If you wish to appear at the booth and selling ANY items, there is a fee assessed as the booth itself, the electricity, and taxes are paid by IheartBBW.com. This needs to be arranged prior to the show.
•Please bring wipes, feminine spray, and deodorant, and consider your hygiene during this time. We are all VERY close to each other and share a space where bad hygiene can alter the energy of the show. I supply some of these items to ensure that you can handle any issues that may present themselves. It happens to ALL OF US. It gets hot inside the expo center, and with all the walking and extreme activities, the natural elements present odors.
If you are unable to attend the show, please text me or call me so I can find your replacement. My number is 443-424-2299 or you can leave a message in the Discord group chat I made just for this: DISCORD
THE BOOTH
•The booth is reserved for paying models. If you wish to join us at the booth, please reach out to our model liaison for more information.
•The booth is a place for us to make money and meet fans. If you are at the booth, please limit socializing with peers at the booth and move conversations elsewhere to allow the space to be used for taking photos with fans and making money. If you aren’t feeling positive and need to vent, please step away from the booth. We have to be mindful that our energy is contagious and when we aren’t at our best it can affect the ability for others to make money or just drain their energy as well. The last thing we need is a booth of unhappy people. That doesn’t attract fans or money! If you have a serious situation that needs to be handled immediately, please see the booth manager or Kari directly. You can text 443-424-2299 at any time to ask for a private conversation so that any issues can be addressed immediately.
•There is no eating at the booth. Drinks must be limited and placed under the tables where they cannot be seen. Please take a break to eat.
•Significant others, lingering fans, male talent and models not in the fashion show are not welcome to hang around the booth. There is very limited space and to eliminate crowding, confusion, chaos, and issues that arise please keep guests from coming behind the booth.
•The booth is not a storage space for your items AFTER the show if you aren’t a part of the paid model booth. Please take your items with you immediately following the show if you are not actively participating in the group events AT the booth.
• If you would like to sell anything (photos with fans, photo prints, or other – you will need to pay towards the fees incurred such as electricity, taxes, etc) contact our team ASAP as there is limited model space. Email (iheartbbwcom@gmail.com) for more information.
•If you wish to get a booth of your own, the show charges $800 for a solo model booth. There are limited spaces remaining so if you are interested you can contact @Alexandra // 3XEvents and tell her IHEARTBBW.com sent you and you can request to be placed near us if possible.
