A Canadian model who lives in Dubai has revealed that she risked arrest by breaking the city's strict lockdown rules to pose for a lingerie shoot.
Miss Universe Canada finalist Dora Rodriguez has earned online fame - and a whopping 43,9000 Instagram followers - by sharing sizzling photos on the social media site.
However, the Toronto native has been unable to keep up with her raunchy photoshoots amid the coronavirus pandemic, which saw Dubai adopt some of the strictest lockdown rules.
Rebel: Canadian model Dora Rodriguez admits she risked arrest after breaking lockdown rules in Dubai - where she currently lives - to pose for a lingerie shoot in the desert
Trouble: The city's residents are currently required to wear a face mask at all times while in public, a rule that Dora broke while posing for the magazine shoot
Phew: She admits that she saw police shortly after finishing her shoot, and ran back to her car to avoid being seen - which could have resulted in her arrest
Among the rules the UAE city adopted was a three-week period in April in which residents were unable to leave their homes without first applying for a police permit.
In recent weeks, the metropolitan city has moved to ease restrictions, however a fine of 3,000 dirhams ($800) is still in place for anyone caught not wearing a mask in public or failing to maintain social distancing.
Gatherings of more than five people are also forbidden.
Dora moved to Dubai in the middle of March, shortly before the city was hit by the pandemic, in order to sign with a modeling agency in they city - but she was only able to enjoy her new surroundings for a few weeks before Dubai went into lockdown.
Speaking to Jam Press, Dora, who has been quarantined in her hotel room for almost two months, explained how she decided to break her isolation and head to the desert to shoot a magazine cover for its fashion segment.
Reflecting on the experience, Dora described how walking down the empty streets of Dubai amid its lockdown was similar to that of a zombie apocalypse.
