OnlyFans stars Annie Knight and Lily Phillips have opened up about how their explicit sex work stunts dramatically improved their lives and bank accounts. The duo appears in the new Stan TV series Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, which offers an unfiltered look at the lavish lifestyles of the top 1 percent of OnlyFans creators, who earn up to $1 million a year or more for as little as two days of work per week.
In recent episodes, Knight and Phillips are introduced as stunt creators, detailing how their daring acts have had a positive impact. Knight, 29, saw her earnings triple the month after her biggest stunt—sleeping with 583 men in six hours. Phillips, 24, revealed that her highest-earning month on OnlyFans brought in over $1 million.
Despite facing criticism from both society and within the adult industry, neither creator regrets their choices. They argue that their actions cause no harm and have allowed them to achieve financial freedom.
Standing Out in a Crowded Market
Knight explained that to succeed in the competitive sex work industry, creators must think creatively. “I wouldn’t necessarily say stunts are important; there are other ways to make $200,000 a month on OnlyFans,” she said. “However, to make over $500,000 in a month, you really need to do something to stand out. That doesn’t have to be a stunt like what Lily and I have done. It could be a specific niche, a different publicity stunt, or simply going viral on social media. But you definitely need to do something that sets you apart from other creators. It’s essential to think outside the box.”
The Gold Coast resident added that if she could change anything about her career, she would have started doing stunts earlier. “I can’t imagine how much more money I would have made if I had started my stunts when I first joined OnlyFans,” she said. “In terms of sleeping with a certain number of men in a day, it’s definitely hard for other creators to get as much attention as we do. But in a general sense, I don’t think that’s necessarily true. There is plenty of crazy, rage-bait content that can still attract attention.”
From Broke Student to Millionaire
Phillips, a UK native, said her sudden wealth was a shock, as she was a broke university student before joining OnlyFans. “Before OnlyFans, I was a broke university student, so when I made $800,000 USD in a month, it was definitely a shock,” she said on the show. “However, it’s a lot of work. When I did my 50-guy back door challenge, I was having sex for 14 hours straight—it’s not easy.”
Phillips rose to fame in 2024 after posting a video of herself having sex with 101 men. She said performing stunts has allowed her to explore her kinks. “I can’t really understand why people are still so upset about it. I’m enjoying myself. I’m not hurting anyone, and I’m being safe,” she said.
No Regrets and a Bright Future
Knight, who is set to marry Henry Brayshaw in October, said she always wanted to appear in a reality TV series but was previously rejected by major networks due to her career. Now, with the success of Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, she feels validated.
Both women emphasize that their stunts are consensual and safe, and they encourage other creators to find their own unique path to success. The series continues to air on Stan, offering an inside look at the lucrative world of top-tier OnlyFans creators.
