Elle Fanning Reveals Why She Created an OnlyFans Account
Elle Fanning found herself creating an OnlyFans account for a very specific reason.
In an interview with People published on Friday, March 13, Fanning, 27, revealed she took to the NSFW website to prepare for her latest role on AppleTV’s Margo’s Got Money Troubles.
“There were a lot of things [I did to prepare],” Fanning explained to the outlet. “Obviously, I am an Instagram user and a TikTok user. I got to look at that.”
She continued, “Also, we had to dive into OnlyFans a little bit. We did create an account for the writer’s room, and for me, so I could check out how the website is.”
Celebrities and content creators are turning to OnlyFans to rack up cash — and some have earned more than $1 million just in their first day.

Margo’s Got Money Troubles is a new TV series based on Rufi Thorpe’s bestselling 2024 novel of the same name.
The project follows Margo (Fanning) as she faces financial difficulties after dropping out of college to raise a new baby.

In August 2020, Bella Thorne said she joined the platform for research on a movie she was making with Sean Baker.
“It’s a feature we are researching as I’m living it currently,” Thorne, 28, explained to the Los Angeles Times. “What are the ins and outs? What does a platform like this do to its users? What’s the connective material between your life and your life inside the world of OnlyFans? … How can it change your life for the worse and the better? How far are you willing to go, and how far do you WANT to go? You can be me, or this talented girl from Montana, and OnlyFans could change your life — if you want it to, of course.”
Margo’s Got Money Troubles premieres on AppleTV Wednesday, April 15.
