Celebrities earning staggering money on OnlyFans after fame struggles

In 2026 it’s not uncommon for your favourite celebrity to have a side hustle – be it their own wine, a podcast, or maybe an OnlyFans account.  That’s certainly the case for names like Lily Allen, who made headlines when she announced she was selling feet pics for £8 a month.  She even revealed that she made more money from snaps of her trotters than from […]

In 2026 it’s not uncommon for your favourite celebrity to have a side hustle – be it their own wine, a podcast, or maybe an OnlyFans account. 

That’s certainly the case for names like Lily Allen, who made headlines when she announced she was selling feet pics for £8 a month. 

She even revealed that she made more money from snaps of her trotters than from her music. 

So no wonder some artists have had the same idea…

Jessie Cave recently spoke about being on the adult paid-for subscription service, OnlyFans, and how it ‘saved’ her.

The former Harry Potter actress, 39, admitted work started drying up in her late thirties and she was questioning how she would make a living.

Now, she posts content centred around her long hair, catering to a ‘very, very niche’ fetish.

Speaking to The Times, she explained: ‘My rule is the hair is the main character. That’s how I justify it. It’s literally about hair: the texture of hair. The fetish.’

The actor once made £15,000 in a day and earned more in one year than she did during her entire acting career.

So which other celebrities are diversifying their income by posting exclusive paid-for content after struggling in their careers?

American Pie’s Shannon Elizabeth recently said she feels like she was ‘put in a box’ for a long time as a ‘sexy girl in a movie’ after she starred as Nadia in the late nineties film.

Speaking on The Tamsen Show Podcast, she said: ‘Because there were a lot of offers for the same type of film, I fought it a bit.’

The now-52-year-old recounted only being paid a ‘couple of thousand’ for her role at the time, but now she enjoys raking it in on the subscription site.

A source told People Magazine that in her first week, she earned a whopping ‘more than seven figures’.

The insider noted that her posts don’t feature full nudity, but the actress told the publication: ‘I’ve spent my entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career.
