The former “Baywatch” star, 50, debuted her OnlyFans account May 18, 2022, and already has attracted 7,000 profile likes and nearly 66,000 “fans.” Carmen Electra is just one of the many celebrities who have flocked to OnlyFans, a subscription-based platform, since the beginning of COVID lockdowns. Launched in 2016, OnlyFans rose in popularity among celebrities during the pandemic and also became a hub for sex workers to monetize their content. A number of celebrities and artists – including Cardi B, Bella Thorne and Aaron Carter – have since joined the platform to provide fans with exclusive content.
