Julia Fox: A Teen Sex Worker Praying for Sugar Daddy (Part 1)

Down the Drain (Simon & Shuster, 2023) is Julia Fox’s memoir. Julia shared in the New York Times Bestseller that when she was an 18-year-old student at City-as-School High School in Manhattan, she applied for a job as a (teen) dominatrix where she “could make up to a thousand dollars a day.” 

To get the job, Julia submitted a “full-body picture”, her bio, and she had to: “Describe in detail [her] most sadistic sexual fantasy”. Julia’s “sadistic sexual fantasy” was trampling a man’s cock and squatting on his face to suffocate him to muffle his cries before he masturbated and had an orgasm “in under ten seconds”. (p. 163-164)

Unsurprisingly, Julia got the job. (p. 166) Her first client was Stewart, an old man, whom she found “simultaneously repulsive and fascinating”. (p. 170) Stewart was fond of golden showers; therefore, Mistress Valentina (i.e., Julia) obliged. Julia wrote: 

I stand up, towering over him, and crouch down, releasing my bladder [...] He gargles and gags as the golden substance trickles down his face. “Mmmm,” he “begins to moan, and I notice that he’s finally getting an erection. (p. 171)

Eventually, for “great money”, Julia became a sub. During one submissive session, an “older British businessman” with an “opulent watch and an impeccably tailored suit”, paid 18-year-old Julia $100 per article of her clothing, $100 to hook her arms to a suspension bar, $200 to whip her, “and another hundred to do it hard.” (p. 174) Of the submissive session, Julia wrote:

The room we’re in is lined with mirrors, and as I stand there, completely naked with my legs apart and wrists tied up and hooked to the ceiling, I can’t escape my reflection. I can see myself from every angle [...] flinching with every strike from the leather flogger. [...] And then the most forbidden thought of all crosses my mind: What would my parents think if they saw me like this? Cringe.

It’s impressive considering I’m only eighteen and the youngest girl to ever work there.

Julia became “addicted” to making “thousands of dollars a week, most of it cash.” However, Julia learned from the other dommes that “pretty dommes” didn’t “typically last more than six months at the dungeon.” Why? They got “plucked by sugar daddies who don’t wanna share them!” Consequently, Julia, literally, prayed for a Sugar Daddy. (p. 179) Julia wrote:

Every night before bed, I spend an hour scrolling through Backpage searching for my long-lost sugar daddy. I shut my eyes and pray: “Please, God. Please send me a sugar daddy. I promise I’ll be so good. I’ll never do anything bad again.” (p. 179)

“After six long months at the dungeon," Julia, then-19-years-old and still in high school, met Rohan at The Union Club. Julia described Rohan as a “gentleman in his late forties with tan skin, jet-black hair, big brown eyes, and a warm smile stretching from ear to ear.” (p. 189-190) And “in good shape for his age.” (p. 197)

After their first lunch date, Rohan handed Julia “a check for seven thousand dollars.” Consequently, Julia gave Rohan “a long passionate kiss with lots of tongue.” At their second lunch date “at a restaurant in the Financial District,” with Jerry Springer “sitting less than five feet away,” Rohan dropped a “thick wad of cash” (i.e., “ten thousand dollars”) into Julia’s purse under the table. (p. 193) 

With the newfound money, Julia “went out every night until dawn” where she chased “Xanax bars with unlimited shots of tequila”. She and a friend did “lines of coke off each other’s feet for the viewing pleasure of older graff heads.” And Julia got nude on the stage at The Box. (p. 194)

Rohan rented Julia “a new apartment in the East Village”. Consequently, she felt “guilty for hiding” her “addiction from him.” When she was with him, she would “hide the tracks” on her “arms with long sleeve shirts”, but when she got home, she would “have a spoon” on her “nightstand waiting”. (p. 196)

After Julia “pop[ped] a Xanax” and “chug[ged] two glasses of champagne”, she “doze[d] off” while they were having sex for the first time. (p. 197)

On her 20th birthday, Julia and Rohan had lunch before Julia returned to her East Village apartment “while clutching the bundle of heroin” she had been saving. (p. 198) But for her 21st birthday, Rohan purchased Jullia a “cherry-red Mercedes Benz” and upgraded her to a $10,000/month “spacious loft in Soho”. (p. 200)

Subsequently, Rohan invited Julia and her friends to: “the opera, the ballet, and front-row seats for shows like The Book of Mormon”, “courtside [seats] at Knicks games”, “shopping sprees at Bergdorf’s and Saks” and “Thanksgiving and Christmas Day together at Cipriani.” P. 200

Eventually, Rohan became “needy and possessive”. Consequently, the “weight of his affection” became “too heavy” for Julia, but she “live[d] in constant fear” that Rohan would “take everything away”. (p. 201)

Subsequently, Julia began an affair with Shane – a skateboarder whom gave Julia “pussy tingles”. After the “messiest, sweatiest, [and] raunchiest unprotected sex” of her life, Shane said, “May I ask what the deal is with your sugar daddy?” And he asked, “Isn’t he married” However, Shane opined that Julia being a Sugar Baby was “pretty cool” and “fuckin’ badass”, and Shane promised, “I won’t fuck it up for you.” (p. 203)

During the summer, Rohan rented Julia a house in the Hamptons where Rohan caught Julia and Shane in the pool. After Julia “wrestle[d] a towel” around her naked body, she introduced Rohan to Shane. (p. 205)

Julia, “This is Marcello, my gay hairdresser!” 

Rohan, “He doesn’t look very gay to me.” [LOL]

Rohan, seemingly, fell for it. (p. 206) However, weeks later, a private investigator in Miami delivered Rohan a photo of Julia “straddling Shane in the pool, topless.” (p. 207)

In the end, before both relationships soured, Julia learned that Rohan had another Sugar Baby named Sabrina whom looked more Italian than Julia. (p. 217) Rohan got Sabrina a Porsche and the keys to the house in the Hamptons (on the weekends). (p. 221) And after Julia informed Shane that she was [temporarily] pregnant, she learned that Shane was “dating a Norwegian model” and that “he had a cocaine orgy in the bathroom […] with, like, ten people.” (p. 221)

Prior to sharing her life as a teen sex worker and teen Sugar Baby, Julia related some salacious details about her childhood, which you can read about in part 2. For example, during middle school, after Julia put her mouth over Tommy’s “IT”, he ejaculated “all over” her hair.

[In addition to Down the Drain being a New York Times Bestseller, per Simon & Shuster, New York magazine opined that Julia Fox is “one of the all-time pop-culture greats”. Per Amazon, Elle named Down the Drain one of the "Best Books of 2023". And Elle’s Juliana Ukiomogbe opined that Down the Drain is a “masterpiece”.]
