LILY Phillips has revealed she was so desperate to join OnlyFans that she tried to sign up aged 17 with her provisional license - but was rejected.

But after joining the app two years later, at 19, she cashed in £2,000 in the first 24 hours.

After cashing in, the 23-year-old then splashed the dosh on a designer vagina - and she’s even had liposuction.

Lily recently hit the headlines after revealing that she has banked well over £2million and slept with 101 men in just 24 hours.

But now, the young woman, who previously admitted she "doesn’t know what self respect is" and has been slammed as 'bizarre' by another model, has revealed all on what it’s really like to be an OnlyFans star.

Speaking to Erin Lewis on a podcast episode of The Curiosity Couch, the controversial woman - who left people horrified with her next mission to bed 1,000 men in one day - shared the truth behind her journey, including how she got started and how she navigates the complex world of fame and criticism.

Lily, who previously opened up on receiving death threats and faces a potential ban from Airbnb after she used a rental for a sexual stunt without informing the homeowner, said she was 19 when she first officially joined OnlyFans.

She was a micro influencer with 16,000 followers on Instagram at the time, and after getting bored of posting fashion hauls, Lily decided to pursue her career in the adult industry.

After joining OnlyFans in 2020, Lily, who now has 712,000 fans and left people gobsmacked when she begged women to 'send husbands and boyfriends' to help her bed 1,000 blokes, explained: “I tried to sign up when I was 17, with my provisional ID and it didn’t go through.

“When I got onto the platform, that’s when I realised - this is epic. I can do what I love and make money from it - is that not the best job in the world?

“I loved taking photos and OnlyFans was an extension of that. 

“I did about £2,000 in the first 24 hours, I just loved it.”

Under the knife

The millionaire model then opened up on the cosmetic procedures she has had - from fillers to a designer vagina.

She started out by getting lip filler illegally at the age of 17, and after receiving her first bit of OnlyFans money, she went under the knife to ensure her private parts were camera-ready.

She confessed: “What I spent my first pay cheque on was actually a designer vagina.

“That was one thing from a young age I was always really insecure about and I think, if I’m going to do this job and it’s going to be out, why would this not be a good investment?"

Lily added that since then, she has also had a chin implant and liposuction on her stomach.

She said she is "happy" with the results and controversially declared: "My worth is based on how I look."

What is OnlyFans?

OnlyFans is a subscription content service based in London.

As of 2023, it is thought to have more than 220million registered users and over three million content creators.

Sex workers charge monthly fees for access to pictures, videos and more.

While popular for porn, the site isn't exclusively designed with that in mind - anyone who wants to build up a fan base and charge them for it can set one up.

Celebs like Katie Price and Kerry Katona are popular personalities on the platform.

"Whether you’re uploading tutorials, tips, behind-the-scenes footage or just endless selfies, a lot of your followers would be willing to pay for them," the company states.

For every subscription that's sold to a viewer, performers get 80 per cent of the cash while OnlyFans gets the rest.

It isn’t limited to adult content, as it has become popular with physical fitness experts and musicians.

Obsessed with sex

The Brit sex worker - who bedded 101 men in 24 hours in a two-bedroom apartment in central London that she’d rented on Airbnb - explained that she is “obsessed with sex”.

But Lily didn’t have a boyfriend until she was 17, and lost her virginity just before her 18th birthday, as she wanted it to be with someone she “really cared about”. 

It was only when studying at Sheffield University, where she couldn’t attend a single lecture due to the Coronavirus pandemic, that she embraced one-night stands and launched her OnlyFans feed.

I always knew from a young age that I loved sex, there’s something about it that I’m obsessed with

Lily Phillips

Lily claimed: “I’ve always been really sexual, just obsessed with sex in comparison to my friends.

“I always knew from a young age that I loved sex, there’s something about it that I’m obsessed with, and I always had an inkling that I would go into the adult industry.

“I really enjoyed sex and felt super confident to take things further.”

Cashing in

The self-proclaimed "bubbly and articulate" girl, who posts everything from sneaky peeks to full-blown porn on her hugely lucrative OnlyFans account, earns over six figures a month and employs eight staff – all women.

But when she first started posting on the platform, she had no idea it would turn out to be so lucrative.

She shared: “I definitely went into it thinking it would be a little bit on the side. I didn't even expect to do it for longer than a few months. 

“I’m making good money from it, I love it, why would I stop?

“I think people forget that this is a job and I love my job, but then I also am just a person. 

“A massive misconception with OnlyFans is that it’s easy money.

"In comparison to a brain surgeon, yes it is easy money, but not everyone can get on the platform and make [millions].”

'Dangerous' Bonnie Blue

Lily, who was born in Derbyshire, England, and stacked shelves at Tesco prior to making headlines, has also done some joint content with Bonnie Blue - another OnlyFans blonde who has made millions and hit headlines recently after her This Morning interview racked up thousands of complaints.

Discussing her association with Bonnie, Lily opened up: “People don’t get the game - the more people that are getting angry, the better it does for us. 

“I’m not trying to say I’m a saint or anything like that, because I’m not, but I think when we did content together, it bundled us very much together. 

I don’t want to be tarnished with the same brush

Lily Phillips

“I got the same amount of hate she did and got tarred with the same brush. I was getting death threats. 

“I wanted to make it clear that some of my views didn’t align with hers.

“I felt like I had a moral responsibility…it was becoming slightly dangerous.

“Bonnie has inspired me to think outside the box. I don’t regret [working with her].

"I don’t want to be tarnished with the same brush but it wasn’t a regret thing.”

Found her calling

To this influencer, who recently broke down in tears on a documentary by filmmaker Joshua Pieters, building up a loyal audience is key.

She shared: “I want to build up a nice audience, I want a sustainable brand, I don’t just want to be the viral girl for one day.

“It’s about creating an audience that likes you and guys that actually enjoy you and think you’re a cool person. That’s when they want to spend and get to know you on OnlyFans.” 

And content creation is Lily’s “passion”, as she added: “I felt like I found my calling. 

“I’ve found my passion in life, this is what I’m here for. This is why God put me on this earth.

“I want to create waves in the industry, I want to be the best. Doing things outside the box helps that.”

The downside of OnlyFans

But when it comes to the downfalls of OnlyFans, Lily was eager to warn people against using the app for a "quick fix”.

She advised: “Think about it before you start - you are going to be discriminated against job wise, all your family is going to know, people are always going to look at you differently now for doing it. 

“I couldn’t have a teaching job now, I couldn’t work with kids. 

“I think people don’t realise the mental side of it - it is going to affect you mentally. People will say stuff to you and talk to you differently and you will be treated differently. 

I haven’t dated in two years, I haven’t talked to anyone in two years

Lily Phillips

“I’m fine with it, I don’t really care what a person who I don’t know online says about me.

“I don’t know why people care so much. It’s just weird.”

Not only has Lily faced judgement as a result of her career, but she’s also had to make sacrifices when it comes to relationships too.

She confessed: “There’s so much sacrifice to do with relationships. I haven’t dated in two years, I haven’t talked to anyone in two years.

“It’s going to be harder for me to find a husband, but it weans out the weak. I don’t want to be with someone who isn’t open-minded. 

“I’ve never had an open relationship, but I would be open to trying it."
