American Pie star Shannon Elizabeth reveals what she actually does on OnlyFans after earning $1m
Shannon Elizabeth made her name in American Pie as Nadia, the stunning foreign exchange student, but now she is raking in millions from OnlyFans.
The star, now 52, raked in a whopping $1.2million in her first week on the adult platform, and has now opened up about exactly what she does on the site.
Back in May she told Fox News about her decision to sign up: "Now is the right time for me to launch my OnlyFans for a few reasons."
"I’m going through a divorce, and I’m in a phase of rebuilding, rebuilding myself and my life — fresh starts."

She said she felt 'empowered' by the move: "As I’m embarking on this new chapter in my life, it’s the most empowered I’ve felt in a very long time."
"This is the first time in so long that I’m really excited about what’s going to come and what’s happening every day. It’s about enjoying the journey. I feel like I’m on this amazing adventure now, and I’m really enjoying every minute of it."
"A lot of us, for a long time, were searching for something," she continued.
"I finally feel like I’m in a space where I’m enjoying the journey every day, and I’m going to do everything I can to make everyone proud and excited and to bring them along for the journey. ... It’s really one of the best times of my life right now."
She had previously told Fox News: "I’m absolutely exploring what my boundaries are going to be on the platform, I don’t even know yet because I’m still getting comfortable with myself and with chatting and just filming all the time."
"I don’t know where it’s all going to go, so I guess we’re going to find that out together."
She has now elaborated further on the Club Random with Bill Maher podcast, as she explained to the host: "It's not a like a webcam. I mean that's the old version, it's sharing photos and sharing videos but instead of being with a million people at a time it's one on one, and it's always so interesting."
Shannon recalled how she first tried to do something like this around the release of American Pie, back in 1999: "When American Pie came out, I did my website. I was one of the first actors, I think, to have a website because at that point only adult entertainers had websites. Actors didn't have websites."
"So everybody thought I was crazy for building a website. And so we tried to do like a fan area where I could chat with people one-on-one, but it the system kept crashing. So the technology wasn't there yet!" she recalled.
"But now the technology is there. So instead of me sharing the inner workings of my life on Instagram, I chose to do it on there where I could have more one-on-one with my fans. And it was just a different platform. It was just a choice. And that's what Only Fans was always meant to be for fans. My understanding is, yes, there have been adult entertainers that use it for other types of adult entertainment, but everyone can do what with it."
She explained: "I haven't decided like exactly where my boundaries are going to be. I've just started. It's only been a couple months. It's really connecting with people and being able to share because I was never good at like filming myself and putting it out there."
Shannon added that she never wanted to be glued to her phone: "I'm never going to be on my phone at dinner when I'm with friends. I'm never going to be that person, but then I would forget to do any content. I would just forget, it wasn't on my radar.... so with Only Fans, I've hired some people that have helped me keep me focused so that they always say, "Okay, we need we need to know what you're doing this week. We need your content." so it just keeps me going."
