BLAST FROM THE PAST: Emily Scott in that May 2010 issue of Ralph Magazine

Emily Scott: From Canberra Glam to OnlyFans Muse – The Underrated Queen of Aussie Cool

Long before Instagram made influencers out of everyone with a spray tan and a ring light, there was Emily Scott — a Canberra-born force of nature who carved her way through modelling, music, and reality TV like a switchblade through velvet.

Born June 3, 1983, Scott’s not just another pretty face. She’s the living, breathing proof that Australia can birth cyberpunk bombshells who moonlight as globe-hopping DJs. Standing 5’9” tall with the kind of measurements that made Zoo Weekly editors weep into their coffee (34D-24-35, in case you’re wondering), Scott has always brought more than just curve to the table — she brought chaos energy. The best kind.

The Rise of Emily Scott: From Clip Queen to Cover Girl

Emily didn’t stumble into fame. She strut in wearing body glitter and eyeliner sharp enough to kill. One of her first gigs? Appearing in Robbie Williams’ music video for Rock DJ — a blood-splattered striptease of pop spectacle that matched her vibe like neon to midnight.

From there, the lad mags came calling. FHM. Maxim. Playboy. Ralph. Zoo. She wasn’t just in them — she owned them. And in 2007, FHM named her the 9th Sexiest Woman in the World, which honestly feels lowball.

But Emily wasn’t about to settle for being just another poster on a teenage boy’s bedroom wall. She had other frequencies to disrupt.

Reality Bites — and Emily Bites Back

While the mid-2000s reality TV boom chewed up and spat out plenty of pretty faces, Emily Scott turned it into her personal power-up montage.

She danced, she dated, she damn near dominated:

• Love Island (before it got glossy and weird)

• Cirque de Celebrité (yes, she did aerial work)

• Dancing with the Stars Australia (she didn’t just sashay — she slayed)

• I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! (2011 edition, with real snakes and real tears)

She even popped up on TLC’s London Ink, getting a koi fish tattooed on her arm while chatting art like a rockstar philosopher.

Emily Scott wasn’t reality TV filler. She was the glitch in the matrix.

The DJ Drop You Didn’t See Coming

And then — plot twist — Emily became a DJ. Not a playlist-button-pusher, but a legit international act. Her sets melted faces in London, Tokyo, Ibiza, and wherever else the night refused to die.

She dropped tracks like “Cortado” and “Long Black” — titles that sound like drinks but hit like sonic espresso shots. Her beats fused house, techno, and a kind of cinematic sensuality that could turn a Berlin warehouse into a fever dream.

Emily’s turntables weren’t just props — they were her middle finger to every industry suit who thought she’d fade away.

The Love, The Loss, The Rebirth

Romantically, her timeline reads like a celebrity tabloid fever dream. A brief marriage to Five’s Ritchie Neville (pop star baggage included). A headline-sparking link with cricket icon Shane Warne, who she mourned deeply following his passing in 2022 — calling him a confidant, a friend, and a legend who never once tried to dim her light.

That’s Emily’s world: fast, messy, real.

2020s Vibes: The Art of Soft Power

Now, in the age of TikTok virality and algorithm fatigue, Emily Scott’s found a new frontier: OnlyFans. But don’t get it twisted — this isn’t cheap thrills and shallow thirst traps. Scott’s take is part sultry daydream, part artistic manifesto.

Her content leans into what she calls “soft lighting and slow moments,” like a Lo-Fi beats channel curated by Aphrodite. It’s a conscious detour from the noise — a pivot into power, on her terms.

She’s not chasing likes. She’s building a sanctuary.

Emily Scott: The Cult Icon Who Refused to Vanish

In a world where fame burns bright and fizzles fast, Emily Scott didn’t just hang on — she evolved. Model. DJ. TV storm. Artistic provocateur. She’s got more reinventions than Bowie and more lives than a cyberpunk cat.

Still stunning. Still genre-defying. Still completely allergic to boring.

She didn’t come to fit in. She came to be remembered.

And we are so lucky she did.

That 2010 Ralph Article

Back to the reason you’re here. Back in May 2010, which is over 15 years ago at this point, Emily Scott appeared in Australia’s Ralph Magazine. When it was still up and running that is.

Ralph was published monthly by ACP Magazines, a division of PBL Media between August 1997 and July 2010. The format and style of Ralph was similar to other men's magazines, such as Maxim and Loaded. Making this one of the very last centrefold articles in a Ralph Magazine. The article was written by "journalist" Dan Steiner.

For posterity, I’ve scanned the article and transcribed for all of you to enjoy. ‘Scuse the folds on the double page spreads.

DAN STEINER: We need to discuss some big issues with you, Emily. Like… pie or sausage roll?

EMILY SCOTT: Sausage roll. I’ve never been into the whole minced meat thing, not that a sausage roll would be much better for you.

DAN STEINER: Do you prefer to go out or stay in?

EMILY SCOTT: Lately, my choice has been to have nights in because I spend so much time out DJing. That involves a bottle of red wine or two, friends, food and music.

DAN STEINER: Beer or vodka?

EMILY SCOTT: Vodka, for sure. I can drink maybe three beers and enjoy it but that’s the limit. In a simple vodka, lime and soda chick. Actually, my favourite thing is coffee tequila. If Patrón is reading, I’d love a sponsorship.

DAN STEINER: Pizza or kebab?

EMILY SCOTT: Definitely pizza. Kebabs are filthy and should never be ingested. It doesn’t matter how drunk you are – just keep walking. And pizza goes better with red wine.

DAN STEINER: Dance floor or karaoke?

EMILY SCOTT: My dance skills are better than my karaoke skills. I’ve had some fun times in Japan singing karaoke until all hours but give me a dance floor any time and that’ll make me happy. As you might’ve seen on Dancing with the Stars, my signature move is doing the splits.

DAN STEINER: DJing or modelling?

EMILY SCOTT: I love doing photo shoots – playing dress-up and sinking my teeth into it. But DJing brings me more adrenaline because you’re playing live and with an audience. You can share your excitement. I’d hate to give up one or the other.

DAN STEINER: Are you a lover or a fighter?

EMILY SCOTT: I’m not into confrontation. Most of the time I just walk away.

DAN STEINER: Best foot massage?

EMILY SCOTT: Back massages, with lots of oil, and as rough as possible. They can make me melt. Well, they make me melt. You’ve got a real witchy spot there.

DAN STEINER: Cuddles or kisses?

EMILY SCOTT: Kisses are one of the best things in the world. There’s a little buzz you get from them. I’m dis’ cuddles but kissing is extra special.

The Emily Scott Interview Continued... Emily poses in a bikini with her hand behind her head, tugging at the string barely keeping her bikini, which is tugging at our hearts. Torn from page 62 of Ralph Magazine's 2010 May Issue.

DAN STEINER: Would you rather have sex to heavy metal or funk?

EMILY SCOTT: Definitely heavy metal. Funk’s cool if it’s for dancing. A bit of funk first then heavy metal later maybe. Anything with a beat is fine, really.

DAN STEINER: Sex in the morning or night?

EMILY SCOTT: Night, because it feels like you get more, and everything good in my life happens at night-time. I’m really busy in the mornings, too, so I’d have to get up extra early, which I’m not likely to do.

DAN STEINER: Top on or off when sunbaking?

EMILY SCOTT: It depends where you are. In the middle of Bondi Beach, I’d keep the bikini on, but if I was in Spain and everyone else was doing it, I’d go topless. In France, there’s women of all ages and sizes who all look sexy because they’re hardly wearing anything and they’re owning it.

DAN STEINER: Leather or silk?

EMILY SCOTT: Leather is tougher and sexier. I have a silk blanket on my bed but I own a lot of leather things. I was on the internet last night looking for a pair of thigh-high leather boots.

DAN STEINER: Lingerie or bikinis?

EMILY SCOTT: Lingerie. The lingerie I got to wear in this shoot was custom-made for me and it was amazing. Lingerie is special because it’s worn under your clothes and is more seductive. A bikini is a bit more functional and you tend to see a lot of them.

DAN STEINER: G-strings or granny panties?

EMILY SCOTT: I’m so tempted to joke here and say granny panties but G-strings are the obvious choice.

DAN STEINER: Your right or left boob?

EMILY SCOTT: What? You can’t choose! It’s just not fair. And you would like to think they’re as even as possible. I reckon the real battle is choose between eyes or breasts. That’s an impossible question to answer.

DAN STEINER: A tight dress that shows off your legs or boobs?

EMILY SCOTT: The leggy one. I’ve got some really hot dresses like that. I like it when girls are wearing a tight, fitted, shorter dress. It’s easier to do the splits in.

DAN STEINER: Bras or commando?

EMILY SCOTT: I doubt this would ever happen but if I had to choose, I would take the bra because it’s the more sensitive option.

DAN STEINER: Briefs or boxers?

EMILY SCOTT: Boxers are much sexier. A pair of nice black or white Calvin Klein ones. And if I could choose, I’d say the less cartoons on the boxers the better. Some guys can look cute in Speedos at the beach but briefs don’t really vibe in the bedroom.

DAN STEINER: Hairy or hairless?

EMILY SCOTT: I like a bit of hair. It’s more manly. When I was really young, I dated a guy who used to shave his legs and I wasn’t really feeling that. There is a hairiness limit, though.

DAN STEINER: Shaved or unshaved?

EMILY SCOTT: A bit of stubble is good. I like to see what a guy’s face looks like, as opposed to seeing a big beard. The beard isn’t great for kissing, either.

DAN STEINER: Star Trek or Star Wars?

EMILY SCOTT: Star Wars is cool. Does The Family Guy one count as well? I find that really funny.

DAN STEINER: Neighbours or Home and Away?

EMILY SCOTT: Neighbours. I used to get quite involved in what the Kennedys were doing. Not to the point of tears, though. I don’t know what hot things they’ve got on Neighbours at the moment but the Home and Away ones are pretty smokin’ and they’re usually not wearing much.

DAN STEINER: The Sopranos or Deadwood?

EMILY SCOTT: If we’re talking TV, I like True Blood. I watched that series in three days on DVD. Sex and vampires — two good things together.

DAN STEINER: Dogs or cats?

EMILY SCOTT: Dogs. I’ve got the coolest little dog. He’s a little 14-week-old sausage dog. I can’t walk him without people losing it over him.

DAN STEINER: Tom Cruise or Penélope Cruz?

EMILY SCOTT: Without a doubt, Penélope. She has a lot going for her — energy, attractiveness, hot accent.

DAN STEINER: Baked or mashed potatoes?

EMILY SCOTT: Baked. They’re just better.

DAN STEINER: Bath or shower?

EMILY SCOTT: Bubble baths are really relaxing and more of a luxury.

DAN STEINER: Thanks for playing, Emily.

EMILY SCOTT: Thank you. I think we’ve worked it out. I’ve had to make some tough decisions and I’ve learnt a lot about myself.
