Catarina Migliorini, 20, auctioned off her virginity for $780 thousand and then donated the money to a charity housing project. A Japanese man called Natsu beat out the competition and earned an evening with the Brazilian beauty.
Natsu had to put his money where his desires were to top the bids placed by two American men and one big-spender from India, according to the New York Daily News . The unusual auction ended at 4 am on Wednesday. The physical education major will reportedly use the proceeds from her virginity auction to build homes for poor families.
Migliorini’s virginity purchasing competition sparked a plethora of worldwide outrage. Many online posters called the Brazilian student a prostitute for selling her chastity. Controversy swirling around the online auction increased when Catarina announced that she is the focus of a Virgins Wanted documentary.
The virgin college student had this to say about her plans:
“I saw this as a business. I have the opportunity to travel, to be part of a movie and get a bonus with it. If you only do it once in your life then you are not a prostitute, just like if you take one amazing photograph it does not automatically made you a photographer. The auction is just business. I’m a romantic girl at heart and believe in love. But this will make a big difference in my area.”
The Australian crew filming the Virgins Wanted documentary will not tape Catarina and Natsu actually having sex. They will interview the young woman right before she is “delivered” to the winning bidder of the virginity auction. Sex toys are not allowed during their meeting, and a condom is required.
Alexander, a male virgin, is also included in the documentary. He allegedly sold his virginity for $3,000 to a Brazilian woman, according to the Huffington Post .
