Raj

ICU nurse Jasmine Sherni grew up with a Pakistani father who told her, "Muslim girls don't dance. Muslim girls don't show their shoulders." Now she shoots porn for Brazzers, and when she tells him she's in hair and makeup for work, he asks how the weather is. Even after college, as a grown woman paying her own bills, she walked out in high-waisted pants with barely any stomach showing, and her dad, who was at her house, stopped her: "Where's your shirt?" She went back and put one on, then took it off again in the car. "I cannot believe I had to put on a shirt to leave my own house," she said. While she was working in the ICU, she ran a food blog on the side and secretly went to BDSM classes and sex parties. She says she was miserable in nursing, and once she left, there were no "ethics and moral clauses of the nursing board" holding her back, so she started an OnlyFans that quickly paid her bills. At the end of 2023 she shot her first scene, a Bollywood-themed one for Brazzers, and it went viral. Her father found out about the modeling when a photo of her in lingerie, with gelato dripping down her body, auto-posted to her Facebook. "Go put some clothes on," he told her. A few months later he said he couldn't support it because it didn't align with his beliefs, then asked if she was happy, if she was safe and if her bills were paid. "It's paying all the bills," she told him, and that was the last real conversation they had about her work. In the video below, from a 2025 interview on The Secret Sex Lives of Muslim Women podcast, she talks about her father, the shirt and the phone calls. She thinks he is "choosing to turn a blind eye," and now every time work comes up he changes the subject to the Saints draft. She runs a monthly comedy show called "Not My Father's Daughter." Is her father doing the best a Muslim dad can, or is pretending not to know worse than telling her no?
