IT SEEMS like Hollywood’s former stars have discovered a new way to shine, just not on the big screen anymore.
Instead, they’re turning to OnlyFans, the subscriber-based platform that’s become a goldmine for celebrities looking to connect with fans (and make serious bank).
From ex-child stars to retired athletes, everyone seems to be hopping on the OnlyFans train, and the trend shows no signs of slowing down.
If you’ve been scrolling social media lately, you’ve probably noticed a wave of former big names announcing their arrival on OnlyFans.
One of the most recent notable examples is Amanda Bynes, the former Nickelodeon star who recently revealed her new venture on the platform.
Best known for her roles in She’s the Man and The Amanda Show, Byne’s career took a backseat after she struggled with mental health and addiction.
But now, the 39-year-old actress is looking to reconnect with her fans in a new and unexpected way.
Taking to Instagram stories on April 15, Bynes announced: “I’m on OnlyFans now! Disclaimer: I’m doing OnlyFans to chat with my fans through DMs. I won’t be posting any sleazy content. Excited to join.”
Her page comes with a hefty subscription fee of $50 (R950) per month, but promises followers a chance to connect with her directly.
While she’s made it clear that her content will remain PG, her decision to join the platform is a reminder of how versatile OnlyFans, often associated with NSFW photos and videos, has become.
For Bynes, it represents a fresh start.
After stepping away from acting in 2012, she’s been open about her battles with depression, body insecurities, and addiction.
