The stars baring all for the big bucks! A look at the celebrities raking in MILLIONS with their lucrative OnlyFans content… as the Sopranos’ Drea de Matteo is the latest to join

OnlyFans has quickly made a name for itself as a profitable platform for online content creators, and a whole host of celebrities have jumped on the new trend.

A whole host of stars have launched their own accounts on the popular subscription service and have managed to rake in millions with their provocative content.

OnlyFans is an online service that allows users to charge fans for a subscription to their site, where they often share content usually deemed too provocative for other social media platforms.

Bella Thorne joined the platform in 2020 and earned a record $1million in her first 24 hours, and an array of other celebrities have since realised the power of their earning potential from the service.

Model Blac Chyna, singer Iggy Azalea and rapper Tyga have been among the huge names who have joined the platform in an attempt to cash in.

Now, The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo has become the latest star to jump on the lucrative trend and has launched her own OnlyFans account earlier this week.

Her content will set fans of the mob drama back $15 a month, and she teased the X-rated content they can expect, as her OnlyFans bio reads: ‘The Sopornos’.

As Drea becomes the latest star to sign up for OnlyFans, MailOnline takes a look at the celebrities who have used the platform as a lucrative side hustle.

Drea de Matteo, 51: Joined in August 2023 and charges $15 a month 

The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo has launched an OnlyFans account that will set fans of the mob drama back $15 a month. 

The 51-year-old actress used Instagram on Wednesday to promote her platform on the content-subscription website, which is primarily known for hosting X-rated content. 

Perhaps giving her fans a hint at the raunchy content they can expect, Drea’s OnlyFans bio reads: ‘The Sopornos’.

The actress’ profile picture is of her sitting on a bed while naked and with a cigarette in her hand. 

She has already posted three times and has at least 646 followers on the website. 

She posted a story onto her Instagram page to share her OnlyFans account with her 445,000 followers.

It featured a close-up photo of her in a blue bikini surrounded by flames. The post was captioned with: ‘ONLY FANS IS LIVE NOW. Link in bio!’. 

Her profile shows her completely naked in thigh-high boots and smoking while next to another woman who is partially out of frame.

Another picture on her OnlyFans account shows her wearing a star-spangled bikini top.

Drea played Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos for seven years between 1999 and 2006 and her character was the long-time girlfriend and later fiancée of Tony Soprano’s protégé, Christopher Moltisanti.

Iggy Azalea, 32: Joined in January 2023 and ‘earned $4million in her first few weeks’

Rapper Iggy Azalea announced on January 13 that she had become the newest member of the NSFW platform. 

According to Variety, the Australian native will be streaming exclusive and uncensored photos, videos, music, illustrations and poetry as part of her Hotter Than Hell X OnlyFans collaboration.

The rapper is currently charging subscribers $25 per month, but users have to pay more via upselling to access sexier stuff.

If you tip the star $250, you get to become a ‘VIP’ for 12 months, which includes one free exclusive photo and some other unknown benefits.

The Problem hitmaker has repeatedly refused to disclose her official income from OnlyFans since joining the site.

Azalea has refused to disclose her earnings on the platform, but realistic estimates put her as high as seven figures in the first month.

Seasoned OnlyFans creator Mishel Karen analyzed the stats on star’s page, and told Daily Mail Australia the rapper would have easily cleared $340,000 from her subscriptions alone.

With VIP subs, tips, and pricey PPV messages factored in, Karen believes that Azalea may take home several million dollars in her first month.

The rapper recently shut down reports that she’s earned a whopping $4.2million in her first two weeks on the platform.

She fired back at a tweet, which has since been deleted, that falsely claimed that her makeup artist had revealed her OnlyFans income.

‘FALSE. That isn’t a real tweet. No one on my team would EVER do that,’ she raged.

‘Y’all really need to stop lying! It’s not the way earning on OnlyFans works stat wise. You can’t earn ALL THAT in subscriptions and yet only $512 dollar in messages.’

The rapper later added: ‘Just know if I ever discuss what I earn it will be in Forbes.’

Bella Thorne, 25: Joined in August 2020 and earned $1million in 24 hours

Bella Thorne joined OnlyFans in August 2020 and immediately made waves on the platform.

The actress and singer famously earned $1million in her first 24 hours on OnlyFans, temporarily crashing the site.

The former Disney Channel star sparked a scandal after she was accused of charging her OnlyFans subscribers $200 for a ‘naked’ photo and then sending a non-nude picture instead.

However Thorne told the Los Angeles Times that the post promising a ‘naked’ picture was falsified as her real social media clarified she would not be offering nudes.

OnlyFans then imposed payment caps and holds on the platform. Although they publicly said the change was ‘not based on any one user’, Thorne received blowback.

Many creators who used OnlyFans to make genuine pornography were furious with Thorne whom they felt had thrown a wrench in their business model.

The actress insisted on Twitter that she had ‘risked my career a few times to remove the stigma behind sex work’ and apologized for having ‘hurt’ the pornographers.

Signed up: Bella Thorne joined OnlyFans in August 2020 and immediately made waves on the platform 

She currently allows users to subscribe to her account for free, but was previously reported to have already made over $11million on the site.

Much like others who run their own pages on the subscription service, Thorne originally charged fans for access to her content in tiers – $16 for 30 days, $51 for three months, or $102 for six months.

She has also announced VIP packages, the exact details of which you need to message her to receive. 

Though on messaging the star, you’re informed that only messages with additional tips hit the top of her inbox.

Tips are a huge part of the site’s culture, where subscribers are expected to part with yet more cash for the opportunity to receive such treats as personally messaged images, sometimes tailored to fans’ preferences.

The extra cushion of currency may also earn fans the opportunity to have a one-on-one conversation with the star, or prompt her to log in for a live chat session with every subscriber who happens to be online.

In Thorne’s case, she also gives her followers another opportunity to dent their bank accounts, as she’s added an Amazon wish list link to her profile – asking for everything from shampoo to coffee mugs and plastic cake props.

Impressive: The actress earned an incredible $1million in just one day from her new subscription only OnlyFans account

Tyler Baltierra, 31: Joined in July 2023 with account run by his wife Catelynn and charges $30 per month

Tyler Baltierra joined OnlyFans in July this year, but clarified that the account would be run by his wife Catelynn Lowell, 31.

The Teen Mom star, 31, clarified that the content posted on the account will be PG in a post shared to his Instagram Stories after signing up for the website.

‘To be completely fair, I’m NOT doing porn at all! Cate is just sharing the stuff that I personally send to her lol!’ the MTV star, who’s been proudly showing off his weight loss and body transformation, explained. 

‘There’s no sex involved or even videos on the page she’s running. I didn’t go to a porn production company, hire adult film stars & crew, have sex on camera, pretend that it was some ‘leaked’ personal footage, or make genital molds to sell!’

‘Cate is being completely transparent & honest about it all. It’s just a wife sharing photos of her husband, that’s literally it!’

‘But I get why some people are comparing it to my former cast members endeavors tbh & that’s totally valid! I just wanted to clarify what type of content is actually being shared on there in case anyone thought otherwise.’ 

Catelynn also took to her stories to clarify that they would not be doing anything ‘sexual’ on the site.

‘Y’all we aren’t doing anything sexual on onlyfans lmaooo!!! Please we got kids! I would never lol,’ she wrote with a crying-out-laughing emoji.

‘But if you do want to see what we are posting then click the link!’ she added along with the hashtags, ‘#noshame #hothusbandalert’

Catelynn also reiterated that the account is run by her in Tyler’s OnlyFans profile. 

‘This account is ran & controlled by me, Catelynn Baltierra! I’m just here to show off my fine a** husband!’ she penned. 

Last year, Catelynn encouraged her husband to join OnlyFans in order to make some extra money, after his 24-pound weight loss.

‘I’m trying to get him to sign up for OnlyFans. Boy, we could be racking in some dough. We’ll never have to work a day in our lives if you start OnlyFans,’ she told E! News at the time.

‘Boy, he looked good let me tell you. But I tell him all the time, “You need to sign up for OnlyFans, man. You’d be making some big bucks with that,”‘ she added.

The new OnlyFans venture comes amid Tyler’s weight loss journey, which he has been documenting on his Instagram for a number of years.

Denise Richards, 52: Joined in June 2022 and charges $25 per month for subscription

Denise Richards joined OnlyFans just two weeks after her daughter, as a way to show ‘support’ for her child.

Since then, she’s embraced the platform completely and shared plenty of NSFW content and sexy behind-the-scenes outtakes. 

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star charges $25 a month for access to all of her exclusive content. She also offers subscription bundles of $67.50 for three months and $127.50 for six months.

With over 5,000 subscribers, she is believed to be earning $129,000 per month. 

In fact, some of those earnings came directly from one of Richard’s friend Tori Spelling who confessed to signing on with a fake name and spending $400 in just two days.

It was revealed in September that year it was revealed that Richard’s husband Aaron Phypers helps her shoot content.

During an appearance on Sirius XM’s Jeff Lewis Live, she explained: ‘Aaron takes a lot of my content for me. He knows what guys like. I ask him, I show him things, and say, ‘What do you think?”

The Wild Thing star went on to reveal she takes pictures in bikinis and lingerie and isn’t afraid to show off her body – insisting pictures of her semi-naked already exist on the internet.

She told the host: ‘I do bikini, I do lingerie, I do stuff that is sexier ’cause I also think, ‘Why not?’ if I’m able to do stuff outside of some of the more conservative stuff that’s on my Instagram. I do show my boobies, my tush.’ They’re already out there if you Google them.’

The actress said she first joined the site to show support for her daughter, but she grew to understand why it feels ’empowering’.

She went on: ‘I did it to support my daughter, being a mom who is an actress who has done stuff, and I just thought it was empowering too as a woman … to take control.

‘You own all of the content and (on) a lot of the other platforms, you don’t own the content. So, it’s nice to be able to control it.’

Larsa Pippen, 48: Joined in May 2021 and earned $10,000 per day

TV star Larsa Pippen joined OnlyFans in May 2021 and immediately began to rake in the cash with help from her loyal subscribers.

The Real Housewives of Miami star doesn’t go fully nude in the snaps but delivers plenty of racy content for her followers. 

It is free to subscribe to her account and fans can pay to unlock content or send tips. 

She eventually revealed to her Bravo costars that she brings in $10,000 a day from her account.

Pippen said it came from building a community as she stated to Entertainment Tonight: ‘Think about it: If you could do something that was super easy at home and text with people? You become friends with these people. 

‘I’m friends with the people, my friends on OnlyFans. I like them. I care about them. I check in on them.’

She continued: ‘It’s really fun. I do like the one-on-one and the exclusive content, things that I wouldn’t post on Instagram.’

However, she revealed in October 2022 that she had scaled back her posting on the site after her father asked her to tone down the revealing images she was sharing.

‘So my dad called me, and my dad said a lot of people were calling him. … He said, ‘I don’t know what OnlyFans is, but we need to shut it down.”

She added that since their call, ‘He took my sex appeal away. He just took it. So I haven’t been able to get back to where I was on my OnlyFans.’

When Bravo producer Andy Cohen later quizzed Pippen on what the largest lump sum of money was that she made from OnlyFans, she replied: ‘Well, it depends how many posts do you have, how many photos. But I feel like probably $200,000.’

However, she clarified that it wasn’t in a single payment, but ‘within, like, two weeks from the same person.’
