Music artist Iggy Azalea's monthly earnings on OnlyFans were eye-watering before she called it a day.
The Australian musician was one of the big names leading the rise of OnlyFans, despite claiming back in 2021 that she'd never venture onto the site.
Writing on X at the time, she said: “I think OnlyFans can be really empowering for people, But I WILL NEVER, EVVVER join.

“I don't want to make that type of content & it only f**ks up the bag for people on there who really bout that life. Shoutout to the baddies tho!!!!"
But after making millions, the 'Fancy' singer called time on her adult content creation career, becoming one of a few celebrities to advertise their page and benefit quite handsomely.
Azalea changed her tune in January 2023, revealing that she was joining the 18+ site, becoming one of the bigger names on the platform.

The artist, who turns 35 on Saturday (6 May), was just a year and a half out from her last album release at the time, shocking fans with the move after being known for sharing a few spicy snaps across her profiles.
Nobody expected her to release content on the platform, though she used it as a way to be closer to fans and preview new music without the meddling of a record label.
At the time of Azalea's venture onto the site, a number of recognisable names had already made their mark, such as Cardi B, who generated $45 million with her subscriptions.
Amber Rose raked in $26 million with her content, while rapper Tyga managed to make $20 million for the year, according to adult toy company LELO.

Bhad Bhabie claims to have made $75 million over her four years on the platform.
YouTuber Tana Mongeau is also said to be in and amongst the elite with earnings of $3 million per month.
So, where does Azalea rank?
According to Lelo, the rapper ranked as the 'most popular' celebrity on the platform, with the star boasting an estimated total earnings of $48 million and estimated monthly earnings of $9.2 million.

Speaking to Variety about her venture in 2023, she said: “Admittedly, I never knew OnlyFans was a place where I could be creative, so I didn’t expect to be collaborating with them on my biggest project to date!
“Once I looked beyond the surface-level chatter about what it means to have an OnlyFans, I realised it was the perfect platform to launch a multimedia concept on.”
Azalea was revealed as the website's highest earner in 2024, which was also the year she decided to pull the plug.
She told her fans: "Hey everyone! I enjoyed our conversations so much - but I've decided I don't have enough time to chat via this page anymore. You can find me on Telegram."
She's now focusing her energy on cryptocurrency and her memecoin $MOTHER.
