And instead of creating something just to, like, shock or outrage people, like the few previous documentaries on...
OnlyFans creators have set out to do or, you know, to create something just to continue glamorizing it like the media have been doing since the start.
My show and my idea is I do want to show the brutal reality of what it actually takes to make it on the platform.
I don't want to, like...
get a few of the world's biggest stars from OnlyFans and be like, here's me, fucking the thousand people, watch me behind the scenes.
I want to reverse that and go to the basics and find four new people and show this is what they will have to do and how will this impact all parts of their life and if they wish to do it.
And again, in doing this, I want to be able to humanize these creators and show that they're not just...
their job title, which they are always reduced to by most people.
And before I even cast anyone on this show, I knew going into it that my main objective was to be able to show just emotion and the vulnerability and depth to these creators.
And again, I keep saying that word humanized, but that's it because to most people, they don't see them as regular people, regular humans like you and I. They just reduce them to their job title and often a derogatory remark like,
slut which i don't like saying that but that is the reality of it and like yeah that was my concept while also still being able to like make the show entertaining and fun and sexy and even a bit controversial because that is also the reality of that world so now if you're thinking well how the hell did you manage to do that josh well
After getting the investors on board and the funding, I spent a long time finding four creators at four different levels, all from like different parts of Australia and the world, actually, because one of them is from London and just moved over for the show.
And I flew them all to Sydney.
I moved them into a house I'd hired for production.
And then.
I enrolled them into the XX Academy, the world's first OnlyFans Academy, which is essentially where the entire show is based.
Imagine, like, RuPaul's Drag Race, and they've got the workroom.
Then imagine, like, The Apprentice, where you've got these people, like, competing in the business world.
And then imagine maybe a bit of, like, old-school Geordie Shore wild antics with Louis Farrell on the side, who's me.
