Bethenny Frankel Passionately Defends OnlyFans Creators

Former “Real Housewives of New York City” star Bethenny Frankel often comments on trending topics, ranging from celebrity feuds to viral cheating scandals. Her latest statement, however, is on OnlyFans content creators and the hate they receive regarding their work. According to Frankel, 54, not “every store is for you.” In fact, she questioned on her podcast, “Just B,” why some of the biggest critics have such strong opinions on something that doesn’t impact them.

Continuing with the store comparison, Frankel added, “I’m not going into a cigar and pipe store. What does that mean? That they’re not allowed to smoke cigars and pipes?” The reality star continued, “If you’re not harming anyone else, if you’re not really doing anything that’s like, extremely harmful to yourself, like, how is it my business what someone else does with their body, with their life, with their clothing?”

According to Frankel, the world has always been this way. “We’ve always been so judgmental,” she said.

Frankel shared that she understands some people may judge her based on what they see her share on her social media accounts. “I post my life in pajamas. Like, some people are probably like, ‘Is she okay? Has she been, like, captured and put into a mental institution? Is she, like, a prisoner?'”

However, the speculation doesn’t bother the Bravo veteran. As she continued, Frankel said that she does what makes her feel her best.

“It’s what I want,” she said. “I want clear skin. I don’t want burnt hair. I don’t want to perform every day for other people. When I go somewhere, then I decide I wanna look good.”

As Frankel brought the conversation back to OnlyFans content creators, the former “Apprentice” contestant shared even more regarding her position on the matter.

“But, like, it’s my body, my choice. People criticize other people’s recipes, what you’re choosing to eat: ‘Ugh, that looks disgusting.’ Okay, well, you don’t have to f-cking eat it,” she said.

“You don’t have to listen. You don’t have to watch. The good news is you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do unless it’s your job and it’s at your work,” she continued.

Frankel stated that she has learned valuable lessons throughout her life, and as she gets older, she feels increasingly at peace with herself.

“I think it’s just as I get older, I’m just getting more unapologetic and allowing other people to be more unapologetic. They don’t have to apologize. They don’t have to explain. They don’t have to do anything,” she said.

For those unfamiliar, OnlyFans is an online content subscription platform where creators can receive payment for the posts they share by charging their subscribers, also known as “fans.” According to the website’s info page, the platform has welcomed more than three million creators, with over 4500 of them having earned over $1 million.

OnlyFans has more than 400 million users worldwide and has paid out over $20 billion to creators. Although creators can post whatever kind of content they want, the website is widely known for the explicit and NSFW content that’s shared and promoted.

Several celebrities have joined the platform, including Bella Thorne, Denise Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Amanda Bynes. Influencers on Instagram and TikTok, such as Sophie Rain, are also on the platform and reportedly raking in unbelievable figures.
