Actor Shannon Elizabeth, known for her role in the comedy film American Pie, is joining the adult content platform OnlyFans. The 52-year-old actor expressed that she aims to take control of her career's narrative and challenge the Hollywood power structure.
Elizabeth believes the platform will give her a chance to connect directly with her audience on her own terms.
Taking control of her narrative
In a conversation with People.com, Elizabeth explained her decision, saying she had spent her entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of her career. She added that this new chapter is about changing that and “showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to fans.”
The actor further said she chose OnlyFans because it allows her to connect directly with her audience, create content on her own terms, and feel a sense of freedom. “I really do think this is the future,” she added.
Her manager, Andy Bachman, also expressed support for the move. Speaking to Variety, she said that Shannon has always been someone who enjoys connecting with and giving back to her fans. According to her, OnlyFans is a powerful model, and there’s nothing more effective for facilitating that connection.
