The Barbosa Brothers- SL's Biggest Names In Adult Entertainment





"If they pay for it, we'll be whatever they want us to be." - Maleek Barbosa


Question: Which SL career will allow you to earn up to $8,000L over a two hour shift?
Answer: Male Exotic Dancing

I caught up with SL Adult Entertainment icons, brothers Maleek and Rashawn Barbosa and asked them give us a little peek into their exotic dancing empire. The RL brothers from Philadelphia agreed to dish the dirt on what it's like to be the most requested male dancers in the virtual world.

"Well, when I was little my Mama had a boyfriend and he was a stripper." Maleek explains. "So when she would come home she would get on the phone and tell her friends about how good he looked and what he could do. I always wanted to be a stripper since then, but I couldn't do it in RL, so I decided to do it here."

Maleek, who says he is a police officer in RL, joined SL first and then introduced his older brother Rashawn, an accountant to the lifestyle. A month after they adopted the surname Barbosa Maleek joined Club 24K as a dancer and Rashawn also became interested in dancing as a career. A year later, they now do private shows, bachelorette parties, intimate massages and act as escorts if need be.

The Barbosa brothers say they can bring in as much as $8,000 Linden per show and they perform about 20 shows per month. During the Spring and Summer months, their show demands can sometimes double due to the amount of people marrying on SL. It seems that every woman wants the Barbosa brothers to perform at their bachelorette party.

What makes the Barbosa brothers so unique? Some say it's the way they interact with the crowd during their shows.

"I know what women want to hear," Maleek says. "And I tell them. I love women and I respect them, but I tell them the truth."

From spiraling pirouettes to booty claps and screaming orgasms, the Barbosa brothers have taken the Male exotic revue to another level. Maleek's "member" is fully interactive. One click and audience members can stroke, suck, pinch or even kick him in the groin area. If Maleek is fully aroused, he can even ejaculate on surprised guests.

No, the Barbosa brothers' shows are not for the faint at heart.

Their personalities are playful, yet business-like. Rashawn, 29, seems to be the laid-back brains behind the business while Maleek, 28, is more of a jokester. He even showed up to the interview stark naked and performed his saucy, sweat inducing dance while we chatted.

"I'm a performer," Maleek announces. "I'm like Michael Jackson and he's Tito. It's a party wherever I go. You see me butt naked right now? That's how I roll."

"They already know they're going to get their money's worth in the end," Rashawn says. "There's not a single performance where we don't get invited to a private get-together after the show."

These private get-togethers upon special request have increased the Barbosa's wallet size significantly. The amount of money they make from these trysts has led some to believe that they are high-end male escorts.

Maleek replies to the rumor, "If they pay for it, we'll be whatever they want us to be."

The Barbosa brothers say they will never stop dancing as long as they are on SL. They do have other interests like becoming real estate developers and they believe their consistent income from their exotic dance revue will place them in a position to achieve their dream.
