Trisha Paytas is known for saying the quiet part out loud, and her latest podcast appearance is no exception. On Jay Shetty’s“On Purpose,”the 38-year-old influencer said she’s“disgusted”looking back on her years posting explicit content on OnlyFans from 2020 to 2023. She also revealed she’s slept with“thousands”of people and described the work as bringing“demonic energy”into her life.
The rawest moment came when she explained her mindset at the time:“I think I really just have low value in myself that I was taking any dollar amount to touch my body.”Paytas tied the behavior to desperation and money, and said she felt judged after telling a friend about her history. Now a mother of three with husband Moses Hacmon, she says parenthood completely shifted how she sees that chapter.
Paytas added that if sharing her story helps even one person find a different path to earning a living, speaking out was worth it. The internet is split between praising her honesty and questioning the timing, but one thing’s for sure: everyone’s talking about it.
