A transgender TV personality formerly known as the ‘Human Ken Doll’ has caused a stir with her latest raunchy Instagram photos in which she appears almost nude for the camera.

It was 38-year-old Jessica (formerly Rodrigo) Alves’ first boudoir photography shoot since her sex reassignment surgery in the Thai capital, Bangkok, in February this year, and she posted the resulting snaps on Instagram where she boasts a whopping 1.2 million followers.

The photos were an instant hit, receiving tens of thousands of ‘likes’ and countless complimentary comments, including from Hollywood celebrity publicist Jack Ketsoyan, who wrote: “Valentine’s Day came early, baby.”

Jessica justified the shoot and its publication, writing alongside one of the photos: “I am not a prude, nor shy, and I wasted too many years of my life being unhappy. Now it is my time to explore my femininity and sensuality while I can.”

In addition to Instagram, Jessica also has an OnlyFans page where she posts nude photos and from which she claimed she recently earned her first USD 1 million (GBP 847,613). She currently has 2,900 ‘likes’ and charges USD 20 (GBP 15) per month for a regular subscription.

Jessica was born in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo in 1983 to a Brazilian mother and a British father and moved to London when she was 18 to study public relations at the London College of Communication.

She was diagnosed with body dysmorphia in 2013. To date, she has undergone over 100 cosmetic procedures including over 50 plastic surgeries.

Her net worth was estimated at over GBP 30 million in 2018, partly due to an inheritance from her grandparents.

She said in March last year: “I’d always felt feminine and when I struggled to be manly with my personality, I decided to make my appearance as masculine as possible instead… But no matter how much I looked like Ken, nothing eased the pain of being Barbie inside.”

According to Brazilian news outlet O Liberal, she now plans to be the first trans woman to undergo a uterine transplant.
