Kerry Katona reveals she's made £1m via OnlyFans, including selling selfies of her feet
Kerry Katona has revealed she's managed to make more than £1m from adult subscription site OnlyFans, including by selling selfies of her feet.
The former Atomic Kitten singer was declared bankrupt in 2008, but told the Mirror she is earning tens of thousands of pounds each month after joining OnlyFans in May 2020.

The site enables users to charge fans to view exclusive pictures and videos. Many creators post raunchy or sexual content, though others keep things strictly PG.
“I just send sexy messages and pictures, but nothing more than topless," said Katona, comparing the work to her past as a page three model.
She added: "I’ve had loads of requests for foot selfies from people with foot fetishes."
Katona is not the only celebrity on the platform, with the likes of Cardi B, Bella Thorne and Love Island contestant Megan Barton Hanson also maintaining accounts.
“People are quick to say, ‘she’s desperate’ if I get out a bit of nipple, but I’ve made my first million since bankruptcy and I’m so, so proud," said Katona.

“If it wasn’t for OnlyFans I wouldn’t have had money to invest in myself and in making more companies.
"What p***es me off is when you get Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise in Eyes Wide Shut moaning and groaning in sex scenes, or Angelina Jolie and Julia Roberts getting their kit off, they get paid millions.
"They get awards. It’s ‘art’, darling. But I get judged. I’m not showing anything more than going topless on holiday.”
Katona said not all of the requests she gets from subscribers — who pay £18 per month — are for explicit pictures, with some "texting me their sex issues" for her to act as therapist.
"I’ve got a great rapport with my fellas," she added. "Others say ‘Kerry you’ve really helped me through my addiction’ or ‘I used to fancy you from Atomic Kitten days’."

Katona has been able to launch an online clothing boutique and a dating app since OnlyFans modelling has got her back on a strong financial footing.
She was also able to buy a house earlier this year, 13 years after she was declared bankrupt.
