Reality Stars Cashing In Big On Onlyfans - Outearning Their Day Jobs! - Fresh Celebrity News 2025

Reality TV Fame vs. OnlyFans Fortune

Reality TV might put your name in lights, but it doesn’t always fill your bank account. While stars spend years crafting their personas on-screen, many are discovering that the real payday lies behind a paywall. Enter OnlyFans - the subscription platform where a mix of steamy content and die-hard fans is turning into serious cash for these influencers.

From Real Housewives to Basketball Wives, these celebs are proving that a personalized online presence can outshine even the juiciest reality TV contract. They’re not shy about it either, embracing the financial freedom that comes with calling the shots. Let’s dive into the stars who are raking in more on OnlyFans than they ever did on TV.

Leah McSweeney: RHONY to OnlyFans Riches

Leah McSweeney dropped a bombshell on the Sofia with an F podcast, revealing she earned more in a single week on OnlyFans than during two full seasons of The Real Housewives of New York. Known for her bold, no-filter vibe, Leah shares exclusive behind-the-scenes snaps and personal tidbits with her subscribers.

She’s been candid about how this move has given her financial independence, a stark contrast to the scrutiny and modest paychecks of reality TV. Per Page Six, Leah pulled in about $255,000 from RHONY - a figure she apparently surpassed in just seven days on OnlyFans. Talk about a glow-up!

“OnlyFans was the smartest business decision I’ve made - it’s real freedom,” Leah shared, highlighting the platform’s impact on her life.

Denise Richards: A Family Affair on OnlyFans

Denise Richards made waves in 2022 when she joined OnlyFans, hot on the heels of her daughter Sami Sheen’s debut on the platform. Quickly becoming a fan favorite, Denise reportedly earns up to $250,000 a month - a far cry from her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills salary.

Keeping it classy, Denise offers tasteful content that fits her glamorous brand, giving fans an intimate peek into her world. Initially unfamiliar with OnlyFans, she admitted to Bravo that seeing Sami face backlash for embracing her sexuality spurred her to join, both as a supportive mom and a savvy businesswoman.

Her decision has paid off, proving that personal empowerment and profit can go hand in hand. Denise isn’t just keeping up - she’s setting the pace!

Larsa Pippen: Glam Gains on OnlyFans

Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen is cashing in big, revealing she once made $200,000 in just two weeks from a single subscriber on OnlyFans. Despite steering clear of explicit content, Larsa’s glamorous, curated posts have built her a loyal following.

She’s been upfront about outearning her RHOM paychecks, crediting the platform for financial independence as a single mom and entrepreneur. Speaking to Andy Cohen, Larsa hinted that her ‘body pics’ outshine her ‘foot pics’ in profits, especially after raising her rates alongside new RHOM episodes.

According to StyleCaster, Larsa, an OG cast member with a net worth of around $10 million, could earn about $30,000 per episode (per Page Six reports on co-star Lisa Hochstein). Yet, OnlyFans remains her golden ticket.

Evelyn Lozada: Basketball Wives to Business Boss

Evelyn Lozada jumped into the OnlyFans game in 2020 and hasn’t looked back. She told In Touch Weekly that her earnings on the platform outpace her Basketball Wives income, describing it as a total game-changer for her financial freedom.

Her move was all about strategy - controlling her image and income without the drama of reality TV. Evelyn’s hinted that ‘the sky’s the limit’ with OnlyFans, a big leap from the $150,000 she earned for season three of Basketball Wives, per The US Sun.

With a net worth of around $4 million (via Celebrity Net Worth) and past earnings of $300,000 alongside Chad Ochocinco for a spinoff (per IMDb), Evelyn’s found a new court to dominate. OnlyFans is clearly her MVP.

Blac Chyna: From Reality TV to Record-Breaking Earnings

Blac Chyna hit the OnlyFans scene in April 2020 and skyrocketed to become one of its top earners. Early reports from BET claimed she made up to $20 million a month, totaling over $240 million in 2021, though those numbers were later debated.

Setting the record straight with Hot New Hip Hop, Chyna clarified her earnings were closer to $2 million - still a staggering amount compared to her pay from Rob & Chyna or Keeping Up with the Kardashians. With a net worth of about $1.5 million, her OnlyFans stint was undeniably her most lucrative venture.

In 2023, she pivoted away from OnlyFans, deleting her account to join Passes, a ‘female empowerment’ platform banning adult content. Even so, her OnlyFans era proved she could outearn reality TV by a landslide.
