American Pie actress Shannon Elizabeth is stepping away from the traditional Hollywood path and taking control of her next chapter — this time through OnlyFans.
Now 52, Elizabeth became widely known for playing Nadia in the first American Pie film in 1999, a role that helped cement her status as a major pop-culture sex symbol in the 2000s.
Following American Pie, she appeared in Scary Movie as Buffy Gilmore. And while her character proved popular, she won’t be returning for Scary Movie 6, which is currently slated for a June 5 theatrical release. Other familiar faces, including Anna Faris and Regina Hall, are expected to be involved.
So what’s next for Elizabeth? She’s launching an OnlyFans account — and as of today (April 16), her page is officially live.
In an interview with PEOPLE, the actress explained what drew her to the platform, joining other celebrities such as Bella Thorne and Denise Richards who have also started accounts there.
She said: “I’ve spent my entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career. This new chapter is about changing that, showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to my fans.”
Elizabeth continued: “I’m choosing OnlyFans because it allows me to connect directly with my audience, create on my own terms, and just be free. I really do think this is the future.”
Her agent also commented on the move, arguing that the platform offers a more direct line between Elizabeth and the people who follow her work.
“Shannon has always been someone who genuinely enjoys connecting with and giving back to her fans, and this allows her to do that in a more direct, meaningful way than ever before,” Andy Bachman told Variety.
“It’s a powerful model, and right now, there’s nothing more effective at facilitating that connection than OnlyFans.”
Elizabeth later expanded on her plans, hinting that subscribers can expect content that won’t be available elsewhere.
“OnlyFans gives me the opportunity to offer something more — a behind the scenes, unfiltered look at my life and a genuine connection that no other platform allows,” she went on.
It’s not yet known whether anyone will be working with Elizabeth on producing her content. Some creators have involved partners in the process — including Richardson, who previously said her husband Aaron Phypers helped her sort through posts before the two began divorce proceedings.
“He’s so supportive,” the model and actress said last year of Phypers. “He knows what men love, and he’ll go through all the photos and say, ‘This is good. Do this. This is what guys like’.”
However, their relationship later deteriorated, and Phypers filed for divorce in July 2025.
