We all considered covering this story yesterday, but skipped it. Apologies to Kaiser and Bedhead for snagging this one after we kind of agreed to ignore it. I’ve been thinking about it and it bothers me so I wanted to comment. You’ve surely seen the ridiculous braggy e-mail from a girl who sort-of had a one night stand with Quentin Tarantino. Somehow she landed the Oscar winning director despite possessing the maturity of a grade schooler. After a night at his place she sent a email to fifteen of her closest friends detailing the encounter down to the last detail, criticizing Tarantino’s manhood and making fun of his kinks. I’m not going to excerpt the whole email or identify the barely out-of-college girl with the ironic name who sent it, plenty of other outlets have done that. To me the takeaway is that she is immature, self-centered and cruel to send a mass email mocking Tarantino for this when he came across as somewhat considerate, given the situation. Here’s a sanitized version of events, and you can read the whole e-mail here.
Oscar-winning film maker Quentin Tarantino has a fetish in the bedroom for sucking on women’s toes while pleasuring himself, according to a young woman who hooked-up with him.
In an email obtained by RadarOnline.com from Beejoli Shah, the 23-year-old details her bizarre encounter with Tarantino, 48, after meeting him at a party in the Hollywood Hills and later going home with him, where she states: “Quentin Tarantino asks, ‘Can I suck on your toes while I [perform sexually explicit act]?’”
Shah accompanies the email with pictures she took with Tarantino in a photo booth at his home the night of June 1, 2011, as proof of her wild night with him.
After striking up a conversation with Tarantino about his films, Shah said he became touchy feely and the two began to makeout until actor Jamie Foxx approached them and asked Tarantino if he was ready to leave.
“Quentin looks at me and says, ‘Want to come to my house?’… We get in an SUV and off we go,” Shah wrote.
“After a lengthy film discussion, Quentin suggests we head to bed, which is the point where I really start panicking.”
Shah goes on to give an unflattering description of his manhood and just as she was trying to figure a way out of the situation, Tarantino voiced an unusual request.
“Quentin Tarantino asks, ‘Can I suck on your toes while I [get off]?” she claims he asked her.
“And thus began the weirdest ten minutes of my life – having my feet made out with by an Oscar winning filmmaker while he [gets off].”
But Shah tried to clear the air, claiming she’s not one of those girls chasing Hollywood hunks in hopes of sleeping with them.
“Just as I hoped, we went to bed right after,” Shah wrote.
“I’ve attached our photo booth photos for those of you who think I still just have a vivid imagination…and yes, he does look like Frankenstein.”

As far as kinks go that’s practically quaint. He asked her permission and he didn’t even stick her hand on his dick or touch her boobs while he got off. This was after she went home with him, had made out with him for a while, and was in his bed after he asked her if it was ok. It seems like he gave her the chance to say no multiple times, it doesn’t sound like he forced or pressured her, and I got the impression that she could easily have declined or slept in another room.
I’ve been with some duds in my day, and I told my best friend about it. I didn’t tell my entire circle of friends when a guy didn’t meet my expectations because that’s totally classless. All this girl wanted to do was let everyone know that Tarantino found her interesting enough to take her home. It’s too bad she lacks the common sense to 1. be discreet about who she told and 2. not put it in writing. She’s about to face some serious repercussions with her career though, given what I’ve read about her. Do you think she’s going to hire Gloria Allred and hold a press conference next? (I got that idea from a commenter on DListed, and it seems like a natural next step for her.)
I think I speak for a lot of women when I say that Tarantino can suck my toes anytime. I have prettier feet than Uma Thurman too. (Although that’s not saying much. Did you see those things in Kill Bill? Maybe he likes some gnarly toes.)
