Indy Clinton shocks as she parties pantless at Bouf beauty Melbourne launch

Daily Mail​27-06-2025
Indy Clinton has continued her wild launch tour for Bouf haircare, taking the party to Melbourne in a pair of red leather hot pants after similar appearances in Sydney and on the Gold Coast.
The TikTok personality, 27, has been making headlines with her eye-catching ensembles (including an 'ultra-short' red dress previously worn by Margot Robbie) as she secures press for the newly-launched haircare brand.
On Thursday, the Sydney-based mother of three proved we haven't seen the last of naked dressing as she stepped out in a pair of red leather hot pants and a skintight burgundy turtleneck.
Indy flaunted her ultra-trim pins in the shorts that more closely resembled underwear as she downed winter-warmer cocktails at Bar Jayda.

The trio of Instagram models delivered a bathroom lip sync to Katy Perry's 'I Kissed a Girl' in their cocktail attire.
'This is the best group of people,' Indy told the crowd of her fellow influencers who had gathered to enjoy the festivities.
As temperatures in the Victorian capital dropped to 12°C, Indy did cover her legs in a pair of sheer black stockings teamed with stilettos.
She finished the look with a chocolate faux fur coat, which she tossed on and off for the cameras in the candlelit room.
It comes after she unveiled her ultra-fit figure on Instagram last week,
'Feeling the fittest and strongest I've ever been,' Indy wrote as she revealed the results of a dedicated gym regime with an underwear photo.
'I've put way too much sacrifice and sweat into getting strong after three babies to not show you.'
Indy recently turned to a private investigator to identify the internet trolls who bully her online.
The social media star, who copped severe backlash following her rhinoplasty surgery, hired professionals to identify women who have been 'trolling', 'harassing' and 'defaming' her over the years.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph earlier this month, Indy revealed that the cyberbullies had been identified and she was ready to take action to hold them accountable.
'Some of the defamatory things which have been said about me in recent years are extremely distressing,' she began.
She went on to express her frustration over the issue, saying that if the social media platforms couldn't make a change, she would.
'I will use my platform and my voice to not only spread awareness but to make an impact,' she shared.
The social media star made a harrowing confession about the toll cyberbullying takes on mental health.
'Lives are being taken,' she said, adding: 'For me - a few months ago - what I endured was life or death.'
Indy then took to TikTok to share a clip regarding her investigation into the trolls, revealing some of them were 'mothers'.
'How it feels receiving a 64-page report from my PI [private investigator] after an extensive three month investigation on all my ladies (mothers) who have continuously bullied, defamed and trolled me and my family for months and months and even years,' she wrote across the video of her dancing.
'Send me some outfit inspo pics for court,' she captioned the post, alluding to the fact that she was taking legal action against the cyberbullies.
The action has been heralded by Australian influencers as something of a rallying cry, with dozens of high-profile content creators praising the effort online.
'Think I might do this too. You are not anonymous trolls,' AFL WAG Bec Judd commented on the post.

Sports legend ‘new favourite for I'm A Celeb' after admitting he's ‘desperate' to do show

A DARTS legend is being tipped to star on this year's I'm A Celebrity after making no secret of his desire to be on the show. Phil 'The Power' Taylor has noted for years his hope to appear in the Australian jungle reality show, and if the bookies are anything to go by. 5 5 5 The 16-time world champion, 65, has had odds of him joining this year's contestants slashed down to 3/1 by Ladbrokes, who believe he could be vying for the jungle crown. Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said: 'With a record number of world championships, Phil Taylor knows all about stealing the spotlight at the back end of the year. 'But Ally Pally is a long way from the jungle, so it remains to be seen whether that success translates if he pitches up in the camp this winter.' Phil has been making his interest in joining the show clear since at least 2017, with him noting how much he would love to take on the challenge. At the time, he said: 'I would do the jungle. Strictly I am not sure, though it would do me the world of good as it would get me fit. 'I have been asked to do the jungle but was always busy.' But I'm a Celebrity – known for its gruesome challenges that include munching on 'delicacies' such as kangaroo testicles and fish eyes – has so far not given him the call. The series typically films towards the end of each year, starting in October, which for Phil would have been the height of the darts season ahead of the World Championships. In 2023, Phil, who scooped a record 85 major titles in his career, shared again he was up for the task, believing there was 'no challenge he couldn't do'. "I know they're not going to put anything in there that's going to hurt you,' he said. Watch I'm A Celeb's most terrifying trials from 1,000ft drop to Table Of Terror "I know you can get bitten, and something can go up your nose or whatever but we'll just have to see. Do you know what I mean? It would be a challenge and something I've never done before. So I would quite enjoy it I think." Yet he did admit he "can't keep his mouth shut" - which could spell danger for his fellow campmates. Last year, after confirming his retirement from darts at the age of 64, he stated again how he was desperate to give the series a go. Taylor shut down the rumours of his participation for that year, but did not rule out the possibility of doing it in the future. He said: "I'd be interested but not this year, it's too late. "Someone mentioned I was the favourite in the bookies but I said 'I have no idea how'." 5 5

‘Financial companies shouldn't be in this position': How more than 20,000 NSFW video games fell under censorship

A critically lauded horror game about the consequences of rape was among more than 20,000 titles caught up in a sweeping purge of adult video games from online storefronts. The furor started in April when an Australian anti-porn group called Collective Shout asked the video game marketplaces Steam and to ban an incest-themed rape simulator game. The game No Mercy urged players to 'never take 'no' for an answer' and caused an international outcry, with just under 70,000 people signing an online petition to ban it. It was swiftly blocked from sale in Australia, the UK and Canada; banned by Itch; and removed from Steam by its creators. Yet the backlash to that one extreme game caused thousands of others with general themes of sex, gender and LGTBQ experiences to also be removed — but not by any governmental action. The censorship came from the marketplace itself, due to pressure from payment providers such as Mastercard, Visa, PayPal and Stripe — some of which allegedly threatened to stop processing transactions altogether if swift action wasn't taken. 'The situation developed rapidly, and we had to act urgently,' wrote Itch founder Leaf Corcoran on July 28. "Unfortunately, this meant it was not realistic to provide creators with advance notice before making this change." And as a result, many video game users and creators saw the campaign as unfairly targeting anything that is beyond the mainstream, with gaming often a creative outlet for people to explore complicated topics. 'For many LGBTQ+ developers, Itch is one of the very few places left on the internet for us to express our gender and sexuality,' game developer and scholar Robert Yang, whose erotic triptych Radiator 2 was apparently deindexed, told The Independent. According to veteran digital rights activist Rainey Reitman, there is a longstanding pattern of financial censorship by payment providers — who have every reason to yield to such campaigns and little impetus to resist. "These are companies that specialize in securing payments and preventing fraud,' Reitman, author of the upcoming book Transaction Denied: Big Finance's Power to Punish Speech, told The Independent. 'They don't have the expertise or the incentives to consider the societal and ethical ramifications of silencing certain voices and certain types of content.' 'It was critical that we acted as fast as possible' The spark for this crackdown came in May, when Collective Shout — a relatively small anti-porn group little known outside Australia — turned its attention to payment companies after allegedly being ignored by Steam. Though No Mercy had been pulled, the group said it found 'hundreds' of other such games, many of which were "too distressing to make public". On July 10 the group wrote an open letter asking payment companies to suspend all transactions on Steam and Itch until things changed. It was ambiguous about what exactly should be censored, referring sometimes to games that "endorsed" sexual violence and sometimes to games that "featured" or were "themed" after it. "There is of course a big difference between merely depicting something, or exploring a topic for the purpose of social commentary or critique, and promoting or endorsing it," Collective Shout's campaign manager Caitlin Roper told The Independent. "Our objection is to content that promotes sexualized violence, primarily against women... the intention was never to target NSFW content generally, or LGBT+ artists and creators." But, speaking to the gaming news site Aftermath, Itch founder Corcoran said Visa had issued a "policy notice" against the marketplace — which focuses on indie and arthouse games — that made middlemen such as PayPal and Stripe question doing business with it. Paypal and Stripe wouldn't comment on individual companies, but Stripe noted that it does not support adult content. Visa did not respond to a request for comment. Meanwhile, Steam's parent company, Valve, alleged that Mastercard had leaned on its (unnamed) payment middlemen to demand that Steam change its existing rules — although Mastercard gave a different account. Steam's purge was relatively small, according to the tracking service SteamDB. Most banned games were explicitly pornographic and incest-themed, with titles such as Interactive Sex: Mom Son Incest and Sex Adventures: Incest Family. But Itch is a more hands-off platform, with less ability to judge case by case, so its purge was far less discriminate. The industry newsletter Game File reported that more than 20,000 games were unable to be found. Among the casualties was Mouthwashing, a widely praised indie horror game about the aftermath of sexual abuse aboard a space freighter, and SABBAT, a 2013 text adventure in which the player can transform into a weird giant monster creature and destroy capitalism. By July 31, all free NSFW games had been re-indexed, but Itch said it was still in talks about reinstating paid games. 'If had been moderating its platform properly, then these games would never have been impacted," Roper said. Still, some gamers and creators are suspicious of Collective Shout's politics, given its reported conservative connections. 'The right wing already routinely bans us and chases us off all the other websites! So [this] really does feel personal and anti-LGBTQ,' game developer Yang said. 'Sexuality is complicated, but Collective Shout and their right-wing allies exploit that complexity in bad faith. Do not believe them.' Payment companies have every reason to censor — and scarce motive not to To those who follow these payment companies, the speed and scale of the situation was unusual but not unprecedented. "I have heard of other situations in which websites received a very short window to address the concerns of the payment company," said Reitman, In 2022, a nude yoga website called True Naked Yoga was suddenly given "mere days" by Stripe to find a new payment processor, after operating for years without any problems, says Reitman, who founded the Financial Censorship Project. Since 9/11, financial institutions have increasingly been held responsible for stopping illegal or objectionable activity. Though initially targeted at money laundering and terrorist financing, these efforts have gradually expanded, with payment processors claiming broad discretion to refuse any legal transaction that might damage their brand. "Financial companies don't get a lot of benefit out of any one account," Reitman says. "It's often cheaper to close an account that's garnering attention than to pay the staff time to resolve issues with it," Reitman said. This is exacerbated by the role of reputation management companies that scour headlines and online marketplaces to flag risky e content. But the great adult videogame purge of 2025 shows reputational damage goes both ways. Payment companies have been swamped by calls from angry gamers, reportedly leading to desperate tactics such as hanging up on callers immediately or putting them on hold for 17 hours. "Financial companies shouldn't be in the position of reviewing and censoring online speech,' Reitman says. 'They don't have the expertise to do it, there is no transparency or accountability around their decisions, and nobody elected them to be the arbiters of morality online."

American mom living in Australia reveals major differences between kids' birthday parties in the two countries

An American mom who moved to Australia has revealed the biggest differences between kid's birthday parties in the two countries. In a recent video posted to TikTok, Lex, who has lived in Australia for almost a year, sparked a viral conversation after she detailed the top five variations when it comes to children's bashes - and how her family has adapted to them. 'They're just a little bit different from birthday parties in American,' the mom, who lives in Brisbane, Queensland, explained. Joking that her son is turning six soon so she's got 'birthday parties on the brain,' Lex went on to list the five keys differences. The first difference she noticed after going to a 'handful' of birthday parties down under is how 'laid back and chill' the parties were. Lex noted that in America, she feels as though birthday parties are trying to 'keep up with the Joneses.' 'You have these big, extravagant birthday parties [in the US],' she explained. As an example, she added: 'We went to a birthday party one time where they bought a petting zoo to the kid's house.' 'So what I enjoy here is that you know, most of the birthday parties we've been to have been at people's homes or at the park down the road,' added the mom-of-one. 'They ain't worried about having the perfect venue and spending all this money 'Also decorations are super chill, there's no decorations like balloon arches. There are decorations but it's just very simple.' The second difference was that there's less paper and plastic products used at birthday parties in Australia. 'In the States, we use paper plates and plastic forks and knives and plates all the time,' explained Lex. 'Therefore, it's much more common at birthday parties to see them in excess.' Meanwhile, in Australia, she said her son has been to a few birthday parties where they don't even offer plates for cake; instead, they give it to the kids in a napkin - sometimes without forks even. 'It was perfectly fine,' she quipped. 'Why are we using all these paper and plastic products?' The mom said the third difference was her 'favorite.' 'I love it when Australian's sing Happy Birthday,' she gushed. 'They say "hip, hip, hooray" at the end.' 'I love how much our son loves it now too,' she added. 'That's his favorite part of the son.' The fourth major difference according to Lex was the snacks offered at Australian birthday parties. She listed chocolate crackles, fairy bread (sprinkles on buttered white bread), and and the 'party mix' gummy candy. 'I just noticed in general that the snacks people offer here are different,' she observed. The fifth difference was that most of the cakes at Australian birthday parties are homemade. 'I think it's amazing and wholesome that the parents make the cakes,' she said, citing a popular cookbook, The Women's Weekly Birthday Cake Cookbook. 'I'm a big fan of all five differences,' she fondly reflected. 'I can't say there's one thing I miss.' The video went viral and users were divided in the comment section over whether these rules applied to all parts of Australia - with some suggesting it may be regional specific. 'Probably in Brisbane but you come to Sydney and it's a completely different story,' one user wrote. Another chimed in with her birthday memories, sharing: 'We had a pool and my birthday is October so my birthday parties were always a pool party with a BBQ, super fun and super easy. 'We'd play pass the parcel, the chocolate game, the doughnut game and lots of pool games. I loved it and my friends loved it.' 'It's all about everyone having a great relaxed day,' agreed someone else.
