The creator economy is now creating jobs on an even bigger scale. Live Nation just launched Creator Nation, a new company that will work across creator management, brand partnerships, commerce, and live experiences. It’s co-founded by Scott and Alexis Fisher, and it plans to buy creator management firms and related businesses rather than operate as a traditional talent shop. First acquisitions are expected in the coming months.

Among the snake heels and jeweled sandals Saint Laurent sent down its spring 2027 runway in Paris was a pair of clear, lace-up men’s dress shoes with a name that needed no translation: “O. Fan.” Yes, like OnlyFans. The shoe’s designer explained the joke to Women’s Wear Daily, and the explanation says a lot about where fashion’s attitude toward the platform has landed.

‘Comedians’ Are Stealing Jokes to Sell OnlyFans Subscriptions Somewhere on Instagram, a working comic’s best bit is being delivered by a woman who doesn’t exist. Accounts steering viewers to OnlyFans and Fanvue pages are stealing real stand-up sets, running them through AI and swapping in a different body, then posting the results as free advertising for paid subscriptions. The comedians who recognize their material are furious, but at least one venture capitalist is delighted.

OnlyFans is rewriting the rules of its relationship with creators, and there’s one big change that all creators should be prepared for. Under terms of service that take effect November 1, the platform can suspend an account and hold its earnings without notice on a much lower threshold than before. The August 2024 terms required a belief that a creator had “seriously or repeatedly” breached the rules.

Pete Davidson made headlines last week when he announced that influencers making $40 million a year prove “the world’s broken.” Sophie Rain, who reportedly earns around $45 million a year, would like a word. “I’d tell him that if it’s really that easy, he should go do it,” Rain rebutted. She didn’t stop at the dare, either. Davidson had already floated the idea of starting his own OnlyFans in the same breath as mocking everyone who has one, and Rain noticed.

Pete Davidson has thoughts about the internet economy, but they aren’t the most creative ones. In a new Variety “Ask A Local” interview, the comedian spent a chunk of his time picking apart how creators make money, landing somewhere between offended and fascinated. And no, he isn’t just talking about OnlyFans creators. He seems to have a problem with any kind of influencer, while also being jealous of them somehow. “People do really crazy shit on the internet,” Davidson said.

Sophie Rain went into her sit-down with Christian podcaster Bryce Crawford expecting an honest conversation about faith. She left feeling like she’d been set up. “Watching it back, I felt like my religion was being used to put me on trial,” she recently revealed. “He kept coming back to whether my work was a sin, even after I’d answered him.” The clip that’s been circulating shows Rain handling the exchange with class and composure.

The final episode of the first season of Double Lives of Suburban Wives offered the kind of closure you usually only see in a series finale, which means we likely won’t be seeing these ladies on our TVs next year. But don’t worry, you can still find them online! But this episode is mostly dealing with the fallout of the Lake of the Ozarks trip and how they are all doing as the secrets they’ve been hiding are finally revealed.

Portland spends more per adult on OnlyFans than any other city on earth, according to a new analysis of the platform’s global economy. The “OnlyFans Wrapped 2026” report, published by the creator-search company OnlyFinder, estimates that Portland residents spent roughly $455,291 per 10,000 adults over the past year (about $46 a head), enough to rank the city first among the 262 markets large enough to qualify.

Camille Herron has broken world records most people can barely comprehend. 560-plus miles in six days, the first sub-13-hour 100-mile race by a woman, the first sub-24-hour Spartathlon finish in history. She recently added a different kind of milestone: becoming the latest recognizable name to join OnlyFans through the platform’s athlete-focused push, framing it explicitly as a new form of self-sponsorship rather than a departure from her sport.
