Alex Mucci, an alt model with almost 4.5 million followers on Instagram: “Popularity fell on me accidentally”

Her name is Alessia Mucci, known on the web as Alex Mucci or Alexis Mucci, she was born in Pescara on January 17, 1988. At the age of 19, she moved to northern Italy to study aerospace engineering.

She used to work as a Bartender to pay her studies’ expenses, and graduated in 2013, after which she moved to Australia.

In Sydney, she also worked as a pastry chef, until 2016, when she – after a huge disappointment of love – she decides to leave Oceania and return to Italy.

The great popularity after a broken heart

“When I came back to Italy to my family after I had my heart broken in Australia… well, I soon felt like a new person. While I was finding myself and my serenity again, the social popularity fell accidentally on me and since then I have been working mostly as an influencer, alt model and singer” says the young woman.

Alexis certainly did not expect that, in a short time, she would have become one of the most admired and followed models not only in her country but all over the world, having achieved a popularity that counts almost 5 million followers all over the web and its social platforms.

What is her secret? “I have always had a strong artistic sense, I like to differentiate myself and surprise people around me” and she continues “I am always asked how I did it, and my answer is always: content, consistency and personality”.

Now that Instagram is full of models and influencers, it really takes a lot of effort to emerge and Alexis, with her sexy, provocative, and always original shots succeed great. So much so that she managed to enter the Italian music market too, signing with the label of the most famous Italian rapper Jake la Furia (May 2019).

Her motherhood shocked the whole web

In December 2020, Alexis posted a photo of her belly in front of the mirror, letting her followers know that she was pregnant: the post shocked the web. Her daughter, Asia Andrea, was born in August 2021 and she’s the joy of her mother.

It seems that the young model obtained exactly what she wanted: she had already expressed the desire to become a mother in lots of past interviews.

The fame always comes with haters

It is well known that girls who create sensual content are haters’ favorite targets: it is easy to find tons of negative comments under their posts, left by those who judge their lifestyle. However, this doesn’t seem to upset Alexis who, on the contrary, believes that haters’ existence helps her to grow her popularity: “Nowadays, unfortunately, hating creates the greatest hype!” she says.

Alexis doesn’t let herself be taken down by hating, and she also constantly tries to fight the heavy stigma that has always plagued the category of alt models and sexy creators: her speech at TedxAquila (June 2021) is really famous. That day a whole theater of spectators was moved by her words of love.
