OnlyFans has evolved far beyond its original niche. Today, A-list celebrities, reality TV stars, musicians, and athletes have joined the platform to connect with fans and monetize their influence. From Bella Thorne's record-breaking debut to Cardi B's behind-the-scenes content, celebrities with OnlyFans have reshaped how we think about the platform. This guide explores who's on OnlyFans, what they're posting, and what everyday creators can learn from their strategies.
Why Celebrities Join OnlyFans
Celebrities with OnlyFans aren't just chasing another revenue stream—they're seeking direct fan connection without middlemen taking cuts or controlling their content.
Direct Fan Monetization
OnlyFans lets celebrities keep 80% of earnings without record labels, studios, or managers taking their traditional cuts.
Content Control
Unlike Instagram or TikTok, OnlyFans gives creators complete control over what they post without algorithm suppression or content restrictions.
Authentic Connection
Fans pay for exclusive access, creating a more intimate and loyal fanbase than free social media followers.
Brand Independence
Celebrities can show sides of themselves that don't fit their public image—whether that's fitness content, cooking, or adult material.
Diversified Income
With entertainment industry income being unpredictable, OnlyFans provides a stable, controllable revenue stream.
Many celebrities initially joined during the 2020 pandemic when traditional income sources dried up.
Notable Celebrities on OnlyFans
From actors to musicians to reality stars, here are some of the most notable celebrities who have created OnlyFans accounts.
Bella Thorne (Actress)
Made headlines by earning $1 million in 24 hours and $2 million in her first week. Posts behind-the-scenes and lifestyle content.
Cardi B (Musician)
Uses OnlyFans for exclusive behind-the-scenes content, music previews, and direct fan interaction—all SFW.
Tyga (Rapper)
One of the highest-earning male celebrities on the platform, reportedly earning $7-8 million monthly with adult content.
Blac Chyna (Model/Reality Star)
Reported earnings of $20 million monthly at peak, making her one of the top earners on the entire platform.
Carmen Electra (Actress/Model)
Joined at 49, proving age is no barrier. Posts fitness, lifestyle, and exclusive photos for her dedicated fanbase.
Not all celebrity OnlyFans accounts feature adult content—many offer SFW exclusive content.
How Much Do Celebrity Creators Earn
Celebrity earnings on OnlyFans vary wildly based on their existing fanbase, content type, and engagement strategy.
Top Tier: $1M+ Monthly
Stars like Blac Chyna and Bella Thorne have reported seven-figure monthly earnings from subscriptions and PPV content.
Mid Tier: $100K-$500K Monthly
Reality TV stars and musicians with dedicated fanbases typically earn in this range with consistent posting.
Entry Level Celebrities: $10K-$100K
Lesser-known public figures and influencers with smaller followings can still earn substantial income.
The 80/20 Split
OnlyFans takes 20% of all earnings. A creator earning $100K keeps $80K before taxes.
PPV Multiplier Effect
Celebrities often earn more from pay-per-view messages than subscriptions, sometimes 3-5x their base subscription income.
Reported celebrity earnings are often unverified. Take headline numbers with healthy skepticism.
SFW vs NSFW Celebrity Content
Contrary to popular belief, not all celebrity OnlyFans accounts feature adult content. The platform hosts diverse content types.
SFW Lifestyle Content
Celebrities like Cardi B share exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, personal updates, and direct fan Q&As without any adult content.
Fitness and Wellness
Some celebrities use OnlyFans as a premium fitness platform, sharing workout routines and nutrition advice.
Music Previews
Musicians release exclusive tracks, demos, and behind-the-scenes studio content to their most dedicated fans.
Adult Content Creators
Celebrities like Tyga and Blac Chyna create explicit adult content, which typically generates higher earnings.
Hybrid Approaches
Many celebrities offer tiered subscriptions—lower tiers for SFW content, premium tiers for more exclusive material.
SFW celebrity accounts prove OnlyFans isn't just for adult content—it's a premium fan connection platform.
