Life

Papen was born in Limburg. After high school, she studied marketing. In 2015 she started working as a model and was photographed for Playboy in Germany, Mexico and Portugal. In 2016 she published a calendar in which she addressed the problem of plastic in the ocean. A year later, Papen made headlines all over the world when she was photographed naked in Egyptian temples. Because of this, she was arrested for taking nude photos, which results in a criminal record in Egypt. The photographer deleted the photos before arrest, so they were released. In 2018, she posed nude for photographs in the Vatican and Jerusalem. A year later, she was also arrested for taking her burqa off inside the Hagia Sophia mosque and was also naked. Papen's goal is to desexualize the body.
