A woman says she is now a millionaire after becoming a hit on OnlyFans - after being asked to pour beans on herself and pretend to be a giant as part of people's fantasies.
Kaya Corbridge, 25, from Lancashire, has so far made a total of $2.8m (£2.1m) on the platform since she joined as a content creator five years ago.
During that time she says she has been asked for all sorts, from pictures of her feet to videos of her eating and to pretending to 'squash' tiny people, following requests from her nearly 100,000 subscribers.
She's told Leeds Live nothing surprises her anymore either and that she has no plans to give up the lucrative work any time soon as she has set herself up for life.
"I've had people asking me to shave my hair off, I've had invites to people's weddings which is a bit strange. These people have never met me" Kaya said.
"There are food fetishes, where people want me to pour beans on myself, there's a giant fetish where people want me to pretend that I'm a giant and I'm squashing them. So in that, I use the camera angle on the floor to make me look bigger and like use a little Lego man that they pretend is them.
"It doesn't feel strange at all anymore. Nothing surprises me anymore, it's just normal for me now."
Kaya dropped out of her degree in international relations at Leeds Beckett University after she joined OnlyFans in 2017.
In March 2021 she had 18,000 subscribers and earned $869,000 (£635,147) in the year from March 2020.
Since then, Kaya has used TikTok to find new ways to bring in subscribers and fans - now she has almost 100,000 signed up for her content.
While most of Kaya's subscribers pay for her content, she has previously awarded free subscriptions to "give back" to health workers in the pandemic and to disabled people.
In January 2022, Kaya had her best performing month in January 2022 where she made $111k (£83k) in just month.
A bad month for Kaya is an income of $50k (£37k).
"It's just going from strength to strength. I'm still surprising myself all the time and it's been four years", she said.
"I've been able to travel the world, which was my lifelong dream. I've been able to help my family, put through my sister through education, help my brother buy a house, help my parents if they need it.
"I've always said that I'll stop when the money stops but it doesn't stop - it just gets better. When I first started people did not know what OnlyFans was. But it was the pandemic that made things soar. Now everyone knows someone who uses it.
"I don't think there's competition though. There's enough money out there for us all and you've just got to go and take it.
"I do want to put some more roots down now though and focus on the business."
Kaya is now in the process of purchasing her own farm for her and her two dogs.
Kaya is also going to be launching a new couple's channel with her partner on March 2 where she is encouraging people ask them questions about sex that they may be embarrassed to ask elsewhere.
Kaya will answer the questions and provide tutorials for subscribers.
She said: "There's a lot of men out there who are quite shy and don't have women's opinions on things so they ask people like me."
From this, Kaya wants to spend more time learning about sex education and Tantra yoga meditation and how it relates to sexuality.
On leaving university to pursue OnlyFans, Kaya said: "It's something you've really got to think about. I did it to earn extra money because I literally couldn't afford to be at university and feed myself. I didn't have help doing that,"
"I had the highest loan but I still didn't have enough money to pay for my rent.
"It depends on your situation. For other people, I'd say think carefully if you're wanting to earn extra money at university. Obviously, you're at university because you want a certain career, while I went just to go university because everyone else was.
"This is perfect for me because I get to work for myself, travel the world, do all the work from my phone. It's comfortable for me but once you do it there's no going back.
"It has worried me in the past but because of how much I've made now and the way I invest my money I've kind of set myself up for life. Not everyone will have the same success as that though - I've been here since early on and I think it would've been much harder if I'd started now."
