Bikini model Cherry Dana is so fed up with Sydney's dating scene she says she'd rather hire a male escort for $500-an-hour.  

The 34-year-old OnlyFans and social media star moved from Newcastle to Sydney several months ago hoping to find her perfect match, but things didn't go to plan. 

'I actually thought there would be more options in Sydney, being more business orientated that I would be able to find someone that is like-minded ... [but] dating just doesn't seem to work in my favour,' she told .

The professional dancer said it's easier to for the services of a male escort than navigate the dating scene, because there is more 'discretion' and 'no ego attached to it'. 

'It is like a stress-free convenience. It doesn't take up my time, and it is not mentally and emotionally draining,' she said. 

Dana, who has nearly one million followers on Instagram alone, said she has used a male escort three times over the last six months. 

'My first time I was very nervous, more nervous than a first date. I have been lucky enough that they kind of stay a bit longer for free,' she revealed. 

The Instagram model said she would be open to dating if she found someone 'mentally, emotionally and physically attractive', but she hasn't come across that yet. 

Dana recently founded Cherrydtv.com, an entertainment website that provides insights into the adult industry while supporting mental health challenges.
