Shannon Elizabeth\u2019s\u00a0pivot to OnlyFans\u00a0<\/a>is off to a blockbuster start. Creators Inc. CEO Andy Bachman reveals the American Pie<\/a> and Scary Movie star has \u201cgrossed seven figures in her first week on the platform,\u201d with sources telling\u00a0Variety\u00a0that Elizabeth surpassed the $1.2 million mark in her first seven days. The actor\u2019s OnlyFans page launched on Thursday, April 16.<\/p>\n Elizabeth, who was one of Hollywood\u2019s biggest sex symbols in the early 2000s thanks to her role as Nadia in the American Pie<\/a> movies, told\u00a0People magazine\u00a0<\/a>ahead of launching her OnlyFans page that she was tired of working in Hollywood where \u201cother people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThis new chapter is about changing that, showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to my fans,\u201d she added at the time. \u201cI\u2019m choosing OnlyFans because it allows me to connect directly with my audience, create on my own terms, and just be free. I really do think this is the future.\u201d<\/p>\n Elizabeth\u2019s manager, Joseph D. Reitman, celebrated her career move to OnlyFans in a statement to\u00a0Variety, saying: \u201cShannon has always been someone who genuinely enjoys connecting with and giving back to her fans, and this allows her to do that in a more direct, meaningful way than ever before. It\u2019s a powerful model, and right now, there\u2019s nothing more effective at facilitating that connection than OnlyFans.\u201d<\/p>\n Elizabeth joined a growing list of high-profile creators on OnlyFans that includes Carmen Electra, Bhad Bhabie, Mia Khalifa,\u00a0The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo<\/a>\u00a0and Sophie Rain. De Matteo launched an OnlyFans account in August 2025 and\u00a0went viral\u00a0<\/a>for disclosing how the profits she made in just one month allowed her to save her home from going into foreclosure as her acting career dried up.<\/p>\n \u201cReconnecting with my fans through appearances has reminded me just how much their support has meant to me throughout my career \u2014 and how much I\u2019ve missed that energy,\u201d Elizabeth said in a statement to\u00a0Variety\u00a0before her account launched. \u201cOnlyFans gives me the opportunity to offer something more \u2014 a behind the scenes, unfiltered look at my life and a genuine connection that no other platform allows. This is also where I\u2019ll be sharing exclusive content that you simply won\u2019t find anywhere else. This isn\u2019t just content to watch from a distance. This is for the people who have always shown up for me, and I want them to feel that.\u201d<\/p>\n Elizabeth stressed to her fans that she is still based in South Africa and focused on her charity work, which \u201cremains incredibly close to my heart. But this feels like the perfect moment to open up my world to the fans who have been with me throughout this journey. I\u2019m so excited for this.\u201d Bachman noted amid news of Elizabeth\u2019s success that she\u2019s planning a charity gala for June in Las Vegas to support her foundation.<\/p>\n \u2014
