Melanie Lynn Berry aka Barefoot Princess aka Obey Melanie has left our little earthly party. Forever.
In November 2023, a tragedy occurred that still shocks many people in the global fetish and femdom community: Melanie Lynn Berry, better known by her stage names Obey Melanie, Barefoot Princess or Goddess Melanie, was found dead at the age of 52. The police in Wichita Falls, Texas, confirmed that it was a tragic murder followed by the suicide of the perpetrator.

The tragic end of femdom icon Obey Melanie. The authorities found Melanie lifeless in her home. She had been killed by a gunshot. Her ex-husband Brian Barnwell (53), who had apparently shot himself after the crime, was also found dead in the immediate vicinity. Investigators are assuming an escalated personal conflict and many long-time fans, followers and companions were deeply shocked.
Obey Melanie was a prominent figure within the BDSM and femdom scene. With a mixture of dominance, creativity and passion, she built up a loyal online following over the years. Her content, which she distributed via platforms and her own sites, often struck an emotional chord and was extremely popular.
Lady Sas explains: “I only found out about the terrible tragedy late on and was shocked. I know her videos and how much of an influence she was in the femdom community. She was an original in a world of copies. She had femdom in her blood and could create masterful, inspiring scenes. We will sorely miss her and her creativity. 52 years – that is simply far too soon. Rest in peace, dear Melanie.”
Melanie’s work reminded many people how powerful original Femdom scenes can be: personal, intense, creative and unmistakably her own.
