Diamond, the exotic dancer who left Justin Bieber in awe of her best assets, tells Diva Gals more about the woman behind the lap dance. Our exclusive interview!
The DivaGals: How did the night unfold that you were dancing for Justin at VLive on October 18?
Diamond: It was Friday night, and the club was pretty packed, probably around 3 a.m. I was working as usual and a big entourage came in, and about five minutes later, they announced it was Justin Bieber and Floyd Mayweather.
The DivaGals: What did you think of Justin?
Diamond: He was very nice, laid back and cool. He wasn’t too rowdy. He was just doing his thing. It looked like he had a good time. He was probably there for two hours. I wasn’t really wasn’t keeping track. I was just having fun and enjoying myself.
The DivaGals: After you posted a picture on Twitter with your night’s earnings, angry tweets started to come in?
Diamond: Anytime a celebrity or big spender comes in, we give them a shout out. I had no idea that it would go viral. I was tweeting that it was a good night at work and I made a lot of money. I woke up and all his fans were going crazy. I’ve been called everything in the book: slut and whore – I’ve been called the devil. Someone sent me a picture of a casket. But some of his fans like me – they say you’re so pretty and so lucky; I want to be you. It’s been both ways. It’s been 50/50, a lot of hate and a lot of love. I try not to let it bother me.
The DivaGals: Has Justin reached out to you since that night?
Diamond: No, that’s why I wanted to do this interview, just to let him know I was tweeting like I normally do. It wasn’t to put bad attention towards him. I know his fans imagine him to be this little 15-year-old boy, but he’s an adult. He’s 19, and he can get in clubs now. They don’t want to deal with the fact that he’s becoming a man.
The DivaGals: Are you a Texas girl by birth?
Diamond: I’m originally from Detroit, Michigan. I moved to Houston in 2007. I was going to school for medical billing and coding five hours and day and working a regular job in customer service 8 to 9 hours a day. It was just too much, and I wasn’t getting enough sleep. I actually went to the club to be a waitress and wound up becoming a dancer.
The DivaGals: What is your next step? Will you continue dancing?
Diamond: In the last two months, I’ve been working on opening up an online boutique. I have an Instagram page, @MIABoutique2. That’s my main focus. It’s customized denim for women, offering custom pieces with Swarovski crystals and things like that. I’ve been working with a seamstress and looking into vendors. I was thinking about acting, but I’m too shy for that.
The DivaGals: Is there someone you’re dying to dance for?
Diamond: I know it sounds crazy but it’s actually a girl: Nicki Minaj. I love her. I saw her video where she was a dancer, and I just want to dance for her. You know, Justin touching me was like the death of me to his fans, I guess. But it was a good experience. Maybe I’ll get to dance for him again one day – and I hope he brings Nicki with him!
