Former UFC standout Paige VanZant is no stranger to online attention, but one recent fan message stood out—even by OnlyFans standards.
VanZant, 31, shared a screenshot on Instagram of a particularly unusual custom request she received via her OnlyFans account. In the post, she joked in the caption that the fan “literally paid $25 for this,” before showing the exchange itself.
The message chain began innocently enough, with a subscriber asking whether she offers custom content. After VanZant confirmed that she does, the request took a turn.
The fan asked if she could create a video of herself stepping on her phone while calling him a “bad boy.” VanZant did not disclose whether she fulfilled the fan's request or up-charged him for the privilege.
VanZant’s online presence extends far beyond that one viral moment. After competing in the UFC’s strawweight and flyweight divisions—where she went 5-4 across nine appearances—she exited the promotion following her final bout at UFC 251.
Since then, she has stayed busy, competing in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, Power Slap, Misfits Boxing, and even stepping into the pro wrestling world with All Elite Wrestling.
At the same time, OnlyFans has become a major part of her career. VanZant currently boasts millions of likes across her paid and free pages on the subscription platform, where she shares adult, NSFW photos and videos. Her standard monthly subscription is listed at $29.99, though she recently promoted a limited-time holiday discount offering 31 days for $12.
Financially, VanZant has been open about just how significant the platform has been for her. In a 2023 interview with Barstool Sports, she said she earned more money on OnlyFans in a single day than she did during her entire UFC career combined.
“OnlyFans has definitely been my largest source of income,” she explained, adding that the earnings have allowed her and her husband, fellow MMA fighter Austin Vanderford, to support their family.
