What do pop star Lily Allen, Olympic gold medal-winning diver Jack Laugher,<br> <br> tennis player Nick Kyrgios and 25-year-old Bonnie Blue from Nottingham, who has filmed herself having sex with hundreds of 18-year-old students (and sometimes their dads, too), all have in common?<br> <br> <br> <br> Yes, you guessed it. They are all ‘creatives' on OnlyFans, the adults-only online <br> <br> content provider founded in 2016 by a young Essex businessman called Tim Stokely,<br> <br> which is now one of the most visited (and lucrative) websites in the world.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Just last month, Lily Allen caused a stir by revealing that she makes more <br> <br> money charging $10 (£8) - the site works in dollars - <br> <br> for pictures of her feet on her OnlyFans account labelled ‘La <br> <br> Dolca Feeta' than she does from her 7.5million monthly <br> <br> listeners on Spotify.<br> <br> <br> <br> But Lily's content is tame in comparison to much of the content <br> <br> on the site, the sort company execs refer to as ‘spicy'.<br> <br> <br> <br> Everything from cheeky shots of bottoms peeking out of bubble baths,<br> <br> blondes stirring vats of steaming pasta in G-strings, hot men waxing cars <br> <br> in their pants, right through the sex spectrum to twosomes, threesomes, <br> <br> sixsomes and hardcore pornographic videos.<br> <br> <br> <br> But also because, thanks to the allure of OnlyFans and the astonishing sums that <br> <br> a teeny number of the platform's 4.1million creatives are raking in, more and more young women (and it is mostly young women) who would never have considered it <br> <br> before are suddenly happy to join in and sell <br> <br> photos of, well, pretty much anything, to pay rent, settle credit card bills or splash out on nice holidays.<br> <br> <br> <br> Basically, a flashier life all round.<br> <br> <br> <br> ‘We feel empowered. We have agency. It's completely up <br> <br> to me if I take my top off or not,' says one 21-year-old girl, who joined a year ago and makes enough in a week to cover a year's student rent at <br> <br> Sheffield University and prefers not to give her name.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> ‘And I am happy to do it because for once I make the rules, in the safety of my home and they're paying me to do it.<br> <br> It's a mug's game, but I am not the mug.'<br> <br> <br> <br> For the benefit of those readers who are not among the site's 305million users, OnlyFans offers <br> <br> creators a platform where they can charge their fans a subscription fee <br> <br> ranging from $4.99 to $49.99 a month to look at their content, contact them (or more often access their ‘chatter' - <br> <br> more of which later) and access often more explicit, personalised, ‘à la <br> <br> carte' content through ‘tips'.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> OnlyFans model Bonnie Blue has filmed herself having sex with hundreds of 18-year-olds<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Rapper Cardi B is said to make $9million (£7.1million) a month from <br> <br> the site<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Actress Bella Thorne, a former Disney child star, made a record-breaking $1million (£800,000) in 24 <br> <br> hours<br> <br> <br> <br> ‘Pay $10 to unlock this video'. ‘Click here for more spicy content'.<br> <br> ‘The more you pay, the more you see'. You get the gist.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> In 2023, the site generated a record $6.6billion (£5.2billion), of <br> <br> which the company takes a straight 20 per cent - much less than YouTube - and the rest goes to the ‘performers'.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> It is unlike Instagram or other social media sites in that nothing <br> <br> is suggested - instead, you have to search for, and then subscribe to, individual accounts to see much more than profile pictures.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Which is a good thing, because while some of the content is anodyne, much is highly sexual and many people on the <br> <br> site can bob freely from one to another. Perhaps a cookery hack one day, modelling new boots the next, then graduate <br> <br> to a few cheeky cleavage and bikini shots and more, <br> <br> as the money becomes more tempting.<br> <br> <br> <br> Every week, it seems, we hear of someone who has made millions.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Last month it was announced that American influencer <br> <br> Corinna Kopf had retired from the site, aged 28, after <br> <br> making $67million (£53million). In her best month,<br> <br> she reportedly earned more than $2million (£1.6million).<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Rapper Cardi B is said to earn more than $9million (£7.1million) a month from the site.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Meanwhile, Darcie Rattles was an out-of-work bricklayer with £6,000 in credit <br> <br> card bills and debts when she joined OnlyFans in 2022.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> ‘I was thinking: how the hell am I going to get to next week?<br> <br> How am I going to pay my credit cards?' she says in an online interview.<br> <br> ‘I'm young, I've got a good body and I've got a <br> <br> lot of followers. It is what any girl would turn to.<br> <br> <br> <br> It had been in the back of mind for two years, but then I did it.'<br> <br> <br> <br> Within two days of launching, she had earned enough to pay off her debts.<br> <br> Today, Darcie, who comes across as likeable, down-to-earth and has no qualms about what she shares, claims to earn more than £250,000 <br> <br> a year.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Pop singer Lily Allen has discovered a niche market...<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> ... she sells pictures of her feet for £8 and makes more money from her account labelled 'La Dolca Feeta' than she does from her 7.5million monthly listeners on Spotify<br> <br> <br> <br> ‘It doesn't matter to me whether I get my feet out, or my other bits <br> <br> out,' she says.<br> <br> <br> <br> Though it does tend to be the other bits, because Darcie's content promises very few clothes <br> <br> and, for those who pay extra, ‘a naughty side to me <br> <br> you've never seen before'.<br> <br> <br> <br> But even Darcie seems like the girl next door compared to Lily <br> <br> Phillips, a British model who earned £2,000 in her first 24 <br> <br> hours on the site and recently went viral for sleeping with 101 men over a 14-hour period.<br> <br> She has since announced she is planning to set a record of having sex with 1,000 men in 24 hours.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> And Bonnie Blue, a beautiful blonde with a golden tan and astonishingly white teeth, who has worked her way round Derby, Nottingham, <br> <br> Cancun and Australia, sleeping with university students.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> On one night during Nottingham Trent freshers' week - after publicising her stunt by wearing <br> <br> a sandwich board that read: ‘Bonk me for free and let me film it' - she had <br> <br> boys queuing up from 6pm until five in the morning.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> ‘I got through them all,' she said proudly in one interview in which she reminds us <br> <br> that, thanks to OnlyFans, she has already banked more than £3 million - for which she was applauded by her followers for <br> <br> her entrepreneurship.<br> <br> <br> <br> But all that is chicken feed when you consider the £370 million dividend that company owner paid himself <br> <br> last year.<br> <br> <br> <br> And these days that's Leonid Radvinsky, who bought a majority stake from Tim Stokely in 2018, two years <br> <br> after he started the business with the help of a loan from his father.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> It was the Covid-era lockdowns that thrust OnlyFans into the <br> <br> stratosphere. Everyone shut up at home, nothing to do. In 2020, it generated revenues of $2.23billion (£1.8billion).<br> <br> By 2021, it was up to $4.8billion (£3.8billion). There was a brief hiatus in October of that year <br> <br> when they tried banning sexually explicit content but that lasted about ten minutes before <br> <br> they switched back.<br> <br> <br> <br> There have been plenty of scandals along the way. A BBC investigation back in 2021 revealed that children were not just accessing the material online by foxing the age <br> <br> verification process but were also selling explicit <br> <br> videos on the website. Leah, 17, had used a fake driving licence to set up an OnlyFans account where she made <br> <br> £5,000 uploading revealing videos of herself.<br> <br> <br> <br> There have also been claims of OnlyFans creators using public gyms and spaces to make adult content.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Recently there has been more concerns that the company is not doing <br> <br> enough to protect minors.<br> <br> <br> <br> OnlyFans, however, prefers to portray itself as a force for good, with supporters <br> <br> arguing that it empowers people by allowing them to sell content - over which they have full control - directly to consumers.<br> <br> And many of the Gen Z generation seem to agree. ‘It's fine.<br> <br> <br> <br> It's empowering. It's taking control,' they cry, pointing out that the site has loads of moderators and a tight security system to ensure <br> <br> that all users are over 18.<br> <br> <br> <br> And they say, anyway, that OnlyFans isn't just about sex.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Of course, they're right. It has long been awash with pneumatic reality TV stars and the likes <br> <br> of Lottie Moss, Kerry Katona and Katie Price, <br> <br> who are happy to tease their followers with a few cheeky peeks in skimpy bikinis.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> I spend an afternoon browsing the site and, while <br> <br> it is not all ‘spicy' content as the company executives <br> <br> like to call it, everything is dripping with sauce and promise.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> The big lips, the push-up bras, even the way a pretty Spanish chef is holding <br> <br> her paella pan. Company executives have been pushing hard to make the platform more mainstream - offering contracts and financial <br> <br> incentives to encourage musicians, sports stars, cooks,<br> <br> anyone really, to come on and share a bit of exclusive - <br> <br> or niche - content.<br> <br> <br> <br> Really, anything that people will pay to look at - <br> <br> glimpses backstage at concerts. Celebrities in the bath.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> During the 2024 Olympic Games, a raft of athletes jumped on the OnlyFans bandwagon to share <br> <br> pictures of their beautifully toned bodies.<br> <br> <br> <br> Along with Jack Laugher, Team NZ rower Robbie Manson uses the site to share ‘exclusive content that tastefully explores the boundaries, including artistic portrayals <br> <br> of nudity' for $14.99 a month. British speedskater<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Olympic diver Jack Laugher is among a number of sports stars <br> <br> using OnlyFans<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Reality TV star Kerry Katona has also teased followers with content<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Lottie Moss  has also taken to the adults-only online content provider that was <br> <br> founded in 2016 and is used by 4.1 million creatives<br> <br> <br> <br> Elise Christie turned to the site when she found <br> <br> herself in financial difficulties.<br> <br> <br> <br> All of which seems to be working well for them, but it can be rather murkier for others.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Not least because, in less than a decade, OnlyFans has spawned an entire support industry of ‘sugar daddies' who support performers financially <br> <br> and ‘chatters' who work for them. ‘Sugar daddies' tend to be older <br> <br> male businessmen who ‘invest' in promising creatives.<br> <br> In what are referred to rather murkily as ‘mutually <br> <br> beneficial deals', they invest in branding and marketing and videography to boost traffic.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Chatters are different. For the real stars, the traffic is so high and <br> <br> the interaction with followers so demanding that if they had to do it all themselves, there's no way they would ever have time to put <br> <br> their pyjamas back on.<br> <br> <br> <br> So ‘chatters' - a sort of online 21st-century Cyrano de <br> <br> Bergerac - do that for them. Keeping them engaged, online,<br> <br> needy and most of all, spending, spending, spending for more and more content.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Which means, of course, that the whole thing is a total <br> <br> scam. The poor daft subscriber thinks he's really making a connection with <br> <br> ‘Racy Tracey from Twickenham', but is more likely chatting to a <br> <br> middle-aged father of three from the Philippines.<br> <br> <br> <br> He will have learnt everything about Tracey - her favourite colour, favourite animal and favourite position - have studied a <br> <br> script that reminds him ‘it's all about selling, selling, selling', and will be being paid $4 an hour for his efforts.<br> <br> Or the subscriber could just be talking to an AI bot - which perhaps is <br> <br> more appealing.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Read More<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> EXCLUSIVE<br> <br> <br> <br> A year after split, I've had a baby and got engaged, writes Mother Pukka ANNA <br> <br> WHITEHOUSE<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Chatters can be dangerous. As Alanya, a paralegal from Scotland, discovered when she learned that one of <br> <br> her most enthusiastic followers had travelled to her home town to find <br> <br> her, encouraged by her chatter.<br> <br> <br> <br> ‘My chatter told him that I loved him. I would never, ever have said that,' she said.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> But, sadly, chatters, sugar daddies and stalkers are not a problem for most <br> <br> creatives. Almost all of whom are still struggling to make any proper money, however <br> <br> many clothes they take off.<br> <br> <br> <br> They will never know the clout of Cardi B, or Lily Allen, or former Disney child star Bella Thorne,<br> <br> who famously made a record- breaking $1million (£800,000) in 24 hours when she joined in August 2020.<br> <br> <br> <br> (Though initially there was some confusion as to <br> <br> whether she would be appearing nude or not.<br> <br> She did not - which caused quite a rumpus.)<br> <br> <br> <br> Because, unlike celebrities who can redirect their existing social media <br> <br> followers to their OnlyFans accounts, most people find it hard to grab attention without doing something, well, grabby.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> So, despite all the tales of golden riches, the average <br> <br> earnings of an OnlyFans creative is still just $150 (£118) a month and,<br> <br> with the market now so flooded, is only likely to go one way.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> And it's easy to see how, if you're a young woman who has <br> <br> convinced yourself that you're in control, empowered <br> <br> and mistress of your own destiny, you could find yourself <br> <br> moving inevitably and inexorably up (or perhaps down) the scale, revealing more <br> <br> and more.<br> <br> <br> <br> Until, before you know it, like Bonnie Blue and Lily Phillips, <br> <br> you've kept nothing back for yourself.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> NottinghamLily AllenOnlyFansJack Laugher<br> <br> <br> <br> Look into my page; ภาพพวงหรีดงานศพ - https://Diekassa.at/kassenwiki/index.php?title=Heard_Of_The_%E0%B8%A3%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%97%E0%B9%8D%E0%B8%B2_%E0%B8%9E%E0%B8%A7%E0%B8%87%E0%B8%AB%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B5%E0%B8%94%E0%B9%83%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%A5%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%89%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%99_Effect_Right_Here_It_s
