Madonna's ex-girlfriend is kissing and telling about their lesbian love affair in a new Disney+ documentary.

Model and actor Jenny Shimizu, 57, had a short tryst with the Queen of Pop in the '90s. She spilled the details in an episode of the documentary, "In Vogue: The 90s." The series recaps all the stars, looks, and love affairs that played out in the magazine's pages throughout the decade, and Shimizu was a main character.

About her steamy romance with Madonna, Shimizu joked that she felt like "a high class hooker" as she followed the singer around social circles.

According to Schimizu, she was balancing romances with Madonna and Angelina Jolie, and would fly across oceans and the country to be by their sides wherever they were.

On one occasion, Schimizu said, she flew from Milan to Paris to spend one night in bed with Madonna before heading back to Italy for a fashion show.

"I mean, you are not going to say no to Madonna in the 90s," said Schimizu.

We wouldn't either!

'Not only was it great feeling like a high-class hooker, because it was, I would get a phone call saying, 'Can you meet me at my show in Paris, you're in Europe, right?' and I would be like, 'Yeah I'm just finishing Prada, I'll catch a plane over,'" recounted Schimizu. "And I would go to the Ritz at four in the morning and have sex and fly back to Milan."

Schimizu is a married woman now, marrying her wife Michelle Harper in 2014. However, that hasn't stopped her from acknowledging the power of her connection with Madonna, writing in her 2023 memoir that things were deeper than a physical connection.

"It wasn't about an emotional bond, it was about taking each other to the heights of sexual ecstasy. I loved the fact that I was at this woman's beck and call. It turned me on, being ordered to her room whenever she felt like sex," she wrote.

Schimizu was the first Asian model to walk for Prada, and she was also the first minority model to open a show for the brand.
