AceShowbiz - Felice Herrig is another public figure who has benefited from OnlyFans. The former UFC star claims that she has made a lot of money on the platform and that's from selling what sounded like silly things, such as her feet pictures and dirty socks.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, the newly-retired MMA fighter credited OnlyFans for allowing her to leave the octagon and live comfortably by snapping shots of her feet. "I probably would have come back a lot sooner from my injury if it wasn't for OnlyFans, because I would have had to. I probably wouldn't have been ready, and I was at least ready for this fight," she admitted.
"Now with OnlyFans, I get paid weekly and I'm not struggling to get paid, and I can take care of my body the way a professional athlete needs to take care of their body," the 37-year-old shared. Noting that not every athlete is as lucky as she is, she added, "It's very unfortunate to do anything out of desperation, and I feel like that's what a lot of fighters would do for so long. That's why you do see fighters coming back from an injury [too soon]."
The current Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship fighter went on boasting about her social media venture. "I make ridiculous money on OnlyFans," she said. "Then again, it’s because it's how hard I've worked to build a name and a brand and image, but it's also nice because it allowed me to work on the recovery that I needed to do. Getting massages like twice a week. I haven't talked about this extensively."
Now, Felice only fights at her leisure. "OnlyFans made it where I'm not desperate to fight again," she confided. "I actually make more money from that than I ever made in fighting - and I make good money fighting. But when you break it down to the fact that you only get paid when you fight, it does make things stressful on you when you're not getting paid to sit on the sidelines, when you're not being helped out."
