Introduction
In the midst of the economic crash following the COVID-19 pandemic, one company did surprisingly well.
OnlyFans, a platform for subscription-based live streaming favored by sex workers, found its business booming as hundreds of thousands of newly isolated people logged on in search of intimacy.
The platform gained even more popularity with the involvement of celebrities – including actress and model Bella Thorne.
In this ABC News Originals documentary, we follow Thorne in her transition from Disney favorite to adult director and performer.
Showcasing the controversy, media coverage, and economics behind the platform and its promotion, OnlyFans: Selling Sexy explores the double-edged nature of the sex industry in the virtual age.
