Speaking to the publication, the 48-year-old explained that joining the adult content platform is one way she is “evolving with the times.”
“It’s another way for me to connect directly with my audience, on my own terms, with creativity and intention,” she said.
“I’ve loved meeting fans at various Comic Cons, and the excitement of having those real face to face moments made me want to seek options like OnlyFans.”
Although she continues to receive residual payments from past projects, Pressly acknowledged that the financial success other celebrities have found in the adult entertainment industry played a role in her decision to launch her own presence on Only Fans.
One such success story is that of American Pie and Scary Movie star Shannon Elizabeth.
She played Czech foreign exchange student Nadia in the classic films, whose seductive character marked the star’s status as a sex symbol in the late 90s and early 2000s.
At age 52, the movie star signed up as a creator on the site after her recent split from south African conversationalist Simon Borchert.
Now single, Elizabeth is cashing in on her newfound freedom, reportedly earning more than $1m just one week into joining the subscription service .
A source told Page Six the actress “has officially made over seven figures” just one week after launching her profile.
Fans began to speculate whether Pressley would be following in Elizabeth’s footsteps and signing up to Only Fans after appearing on the former American Pie star’s Instagram.
“So great seeing you after all these years, @jaimepressly. Always nice crossing paths again and sharing a moment like this,” Elizabeth wrote.
“Such a beautiful human, inside and out. Hope we get to do it again soon.”
