Where Are They Now: The Girls From 2 Girls, 1 Cup
IT’S been years since “2 Girls, 1 Cup” appeared on our internet, heralding the dawn of the “YouTube reaction video” and making temporary superstars of its nubile young stars.
Considered to be “shocking” at the time, 2G1C is regarded by today’s desensitised youth as a quaint footnote in the history of extreme pornography, in much the same way as The Exorcist was once the scariest movie of all time but now looks like something you’d stick on for the kids.
Set during a carefree afternoon in the lives of two faeces-starved young women, 2G1C told the story of how there are no limitations when it comes to two people expressing their love for each other, and how one cup can bring two people together in a bond that is stronger than anything else in the world.
The 1-minute long clip known as 2 Girls 1 Cup that shot to internet fame was actually a trailer for a much longer feature called “Hungry Bitches”, which explored the complexities of a relationship between two ladies whose only goal in life is to live, love, be free, and eat handfuls of hot excrement directly out of each others rectums.
Credited only as “Karla” and “Latifa” the two girls are filmed spending some time in their native Brazil, while defecating and vomiting all over each other in the most artistic way two people can possibly do such a thing.
Such is the transient nature of porn fame, Karla and Latifa never managed to use 2G1C to springboard themselves to more mainstream roles, and both young women fell back into obscurity before seemingly vanishing off the face of the Earth.
Following an extensive online search, we managed to catch up with Karla, real name Carla Oliveira, as she works her current day job as an ice-cream vendor on the busy streets of Rio De Janeiro. Carla, who portrayed the role of “the blonde one”, looks fit and healthy as she reminisces about the 2G1C shoot of 2007.
“It was a magical time in my life,” muses Carla, as she scoops a generous portion of peanut butter ice-cream into a cone for a young customer.
“It’s that special time in a young girl’s life, when everything is just music and parties and suntanning and walks on the beach and having another girl expel solid waste from her anus directly into your mouth. The 2G1C set was such a fun place to be, and we were treated like absolute rockstars”.
“I remember auditioning for the part, and waiting by my phone for hours until I got the call that changed my life. I was picked up the next day outside my apartment, taken to set and given all the Chinese food I could eat. I remember thinking to myself ‘wow: I’m special’. There’s nobody else in Brazil, hell, in the world, who can do what I do”.
Following the viral success of 2G1C, Carla could barely go outside her front door without being recognised: something the shy young Brazilian was not prepared for.
“I was like: oh my God, so many people know me now,” says Carla, giggling.
“I’d walk down the street and people would say, hey: aren’t you the girl? With the poop and the other girl, and the cup and the poop? They’d ask for my autograph, to pose for pictures, one guy even got me to drop my pants and poop into his hand, which he ate right in front of me. It was strange, but after a while it just became part of everyday life”.
But stardom is a fickle thing, and Carla soon found the roles for a young Brazilian scat aficionado were few and far between.
“Once you get typecast as the shit-eater, that’s all people want to see,” sighs Carla, handing out cones of chocolate ice-cream from the kiosk her uncle owns.
“I tried my hand at other fetish movies, with urine and the like, but it all felt so unnatural to me. In the end, I decided to quit the industry while I was still ahead, before I found myself doing something degrading that I would regret for the rest of my life”.
Carla went on to speak highly of 2G1C director Marco Antônio Fiorito, who went on to face a series of obscenity charges which left him placed on an “arrest on sight” list across the United States.
Carla’s co-star, Latifa, died from dysentery three days after the filming of the now-iconic clip.
The whereabouts of the cup remains unknown.
