Babestation has long been a pioneering platform, birthing the careers of numerous models who have left a lasting impact on the glamour industry. At its height in the early 2000s, the adult chat show became a cultural touchstone, serving as the first port of call for many coming of age. While the adult landscape has evolved, these Babestation Legends continue to carve out their own remarkable paths, from celebrating incredible career comebacks and industry nominations to pioneering mother-daughter collaborations. Here, we look at some of the biggest names to emerge from Babestation and what they are doing today.
Camilla Jayne: The Trailblazer Returns
Camilla Jayne, one of the most recognisable original models from Babestation, is reflecting on a trailblazing career that saw fans queuing for hours on phone lines and even joining her for a pint in their local Wetherspoons.
The Oxfordshire native has returned to the spotlight, sharing stories from her early days and reconnecting with the loyal fanbase that crowned her their “first crush.” Her journey, which began unexpectedly after winning a nightclub bikini contest, highlights the unique and personal connection she forged with her audience, defining an era of glamour entertainment.
“Camilla’s story is a fantastic reminder of the genuine community that has always been at the heart of Babestation,” said a spokesperson for the company. “She was a pioneer, and her relatable, funny personality created a bond with viewers that has clearly lasted for decades. Camilla Jayne’s return has been met with incredible enthusiasm, and her recent nomination for Mature Model of the Year is a well-deserved honour.”
Camilla’s career was launched by chance when, at 23, she impulsively entered a bikini contest in Mayfair and was spotted by a TV executive. She was soon headhunted by Babestation. “I knew that I had something a bit different to offer,” she recalled. “People really loved the funny side of me, which I think made me relatable. A user might spot me in their local Wetherspoon’s and I would buy them a drink and we’d have a laugh.”
This down-to-earth approach made her a star. She revealed that for many viewers, it was about seeking a “girlfriend experience.” “At one point, I had hundreds of men queuing on the phone lines, just waiting for me to talk to them,” she said. “You build up rapport and a relationship with people.”
Since returning to Babestation, the Babestation Legend has been touched by the reception. “Speaking with my old callers was incredible and it felt really homely,” she said, recounting a story from one fan who admitted he and his wife still watch his old VHS recordings of her shows.
Recently nominated for Mature Model of the Year at the UK Glamour Awards, Camilla Jayne’s legacy as a fan favourite continues to be celebrated.
Beth Bennett: The Global Appeal
New Zealander Beth Bennett, now 37, stands out as one of Babestation’s longest-serving talents, celebrating over 14 years on the platform. Her journey to the UK and into the world of adult entertainment was driven by a desire for a new life overseas. Ironically, her first foray into adult work—stripping to fund her university studies—was inspired by a job advertisement sent to her by her mother.
After moving from New Zealand, Beth found herself in an unexpected job in an Oxfordshire pub. Boredom and a search for something more engaging led her to discover the Babestation channel. She was quickly signed up, starting a decade-and-a-half-long career that she credits with providing variety and a positive, supportive work environment.
“It is a really fun environment,” Beth has shared, countering the stereotype of competitive workplaces. “It is really friendly and always different. A lot of people have jobs that get a bit monotonous… but we are literally talking to someone different all the time.” Beth’s dedication and enthusiasm have made her a beloved figure among viewers and colleagues alike, proving that a long and successful career in the industry is possible.
Levi: A Family Legacy and Confidence Boost
Jema Gilsenan, known to her fans as Levi, is a true Babestation Legend, having been with Babestation for over 20 years. Her tenure is remarkable not just for its longevity, but for the unique legacy she has created: her daughter, McKenzie, 22, has now followed her into the industry, making them one of the platform’s few mother-daughter duos.
Levi’s long career has provided more than just a steady income; she credits her work with giving her a profound confidence boost. Having struggled with bullying and an eating disorder earlier in life, the daily connection with appreciative callers helped transform her self-perception. “Being ‘worshipped’ everyday by the men who’d call gave Levi a huge confidence boost,” she revealed, highlighting the positive psychological impact of the platform’s community.
Her daughter McKenzie was already familiar with the community, having grown up knowing many of the veteran models as “aunties.” When McKenzie struggled to find work during the pandemic, Levi helped guide her to Babestation, where she has been welcomed by the established talent. Now, the two are often mistaken for sisters by callers, a testament to Levi’s youthful spirit.
“I have just loved my 20 years here,” Levi concluded. “It’s a place where I have been able to build a career, gain confidence, and now even share that experience with my daughter.”
