Lily Allen says she makes more from selling pictures of her feet than she did from her music
She made the admission after receiving criticism online
Lily Allen has admitted she makes more money from selling pictures of her feet than she does from her music.
Allen, 39, joined OnlyFans back in July and started selling photos of her feet for $10 (£8) a month.
Allen faced criticism when she shared a post about her content on X.
It all kicked off again when Allen reminded fans about her OnlyFans platform, writing: “Haven’t posted in a while but you can still check out the archive.”
But one follower responded: “Imagine being one of the biggest pop stars/musicians in Europe and then being reduced to this.”
The 39-year-old was quick to defend herself saying: “Imagine being an artist and having nearly 8 million monthly listeners on Spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet.
This means that Allen is making around £8,000 a month from OnlyFans.
“The lady said I could make a lot of money from selling foot content on OnlyFans.”
Her husband, Stranger Things actor David Harbour was apparently cautious at first but is now on board with the idea.
Allen did add that she feels ‘empowered’ from setting up the account.
She said: “I’m finding this quite empowering because having been sexualised from a very early age and literally everyone else profiting from that sexualisation, it is actually really fun to be in power and in control.
“I know where it ends. It ends in the same place that it starts – it’s only feet. I’ve got very strict guidelines.
“Believe me, these guys are all up in my DMs telling me they want bespoke content and asking me for all kinds of crazy stuff, and I take such pleasure in saying, ‘Only feet.’”
Lily Allen Says Her OnlyFans Feet Pictures Make More Money Than Spotify Streams: ‘Don’t Hate the Player, Hate the Game’
Singer Lily Allen has revealed that she makes more money each month by selling pictures of her feet on OnlyFans than she does through her Spotify streams.
Allen started her OnlyFans account over the summer after her pedicurist told her she had nice feet and could make some cash off of them, she revealed on an episode of her podcast “Miss Me.” She shared that she has a perfect five-star rating on WikiFeet, the foot fetish website that collects and rates pictures of celebrities’ feet.
After posting pictures of her feet and a link to her OnlyFans account on X (formerly Twitter), Allen responded to a person who criticized her by saying, “Imagine being one of the biggest pop stars/musicians in Europe and then being reduced to this.”
Known for being a porn-friendly creator platform, OnlyFans has paid more than $20 billion to content creators since it began eight years ago. CEO Keily Blair recently spoke at the Bloomberg Screentime conference in L.A. about how the platform offers more than just sexual content.
“Everyone assumes it’s sexy content. Some of it is sexy content — and we’re very happy with that, we’re an inclusive platform, and we’re that way for a reason,” she said. “We believe it’s very important for adult content creators to have a safe space, to be able to monetize and also to be able to do that alongside other content creators.”
