‘Creepy': Porn stars issue warning as alarming new trend explodes
New Zealand's biggest OnlyFans star Layla Kelly is one of many being flooded with messages from male subscribers posing as women in order to gain intimate access to her that would otherwise be off limits.
While the experience of being catfished is itself unnerving, Ms Kelly said her biggest concern was that these men are often stealing images of unsuspecting women in order to achieve their deception.
'I personally don't have a problem with people pretending to be someone else, if that's their fetish then that's okay,' Ms Kelly told news.com.au.
'Where it crosses the line is when someone, who hasn't consented or given permission, is having their identity and photos used unknowingly, especially given that this is a very intimate platform.
'Often nude images are used too and these women have no idea. It's so wrong.'
Lucy Banks, an ex-adult star who launched a marketing agency for OnlyFans creators, said these men were often easy to spot and are not as clever as they think.
'There were several times where I would have subscribers be like, 'Hey, I'm Mandy! I'm thinking about getting my boobs done. Can you send me a photo of your boobs? I want to see what they look like',' the Perth mum told news.com.au.
'Often the motivation is to try and get free content out of you. But what they don't realise is that they are a dime a dozen. It happens all the time so we can see it a mile away.'
Other guys try to hide their gender from the stars as part of an unusual fetish, the Million Billion Media founder explained.
'I used to have this subscriber that had some sort of medical kink, and he would always say, 'Oh, I need to go for a pap smear, I need to have an internal, can you tell me what it's like, I want to know what it feels like, how deep do they go, does it turn you on?',' she shared.
'He would go on and on and on about speculums and having pap smears and internal (examinations).
'And again, you can tell straight away. They're not as smart as they think they are and you can tell straight away that it's a guy.'
While the experience breaks many female stars' boundaries and is seen by some as a 'violation', Ms Kelly said her biggest concern was for the women whose images and privacy are being stolen.
As a result, she recently took to social media to discuss the breach these women are unknowingly experiencing, captioning the video, 'Consent matters guys.'
'What bothers me most about this is the clothed and unclothed images of the women they are using when pulling this sneaky act,' she said.
'One guy even sent me a wedding photo paired with a driving licence and I knew it had to be his wife or his sister. Either way, I highly doubt she knew what he was up to.
'I do ask these men to prove they are who they say they are, but none of them ever do. I even remind them that it is against the terms of service to be sending photos of anyone but themselves because they can't consent to that.'
She also agreed with Ms Banks, stating it was 'so obvious' when men pulled the stunt, adding: 'I wish I could say this was a rare thing, but it happens all the time'.
'It kind of makes me wonder what these men are getting out of it, and I think it's the chase of 'special attention',' she concluded.
'They give themselves away by saying things like, 'I'm such a dirty little s**t,' like what? Most women do not described themselves like that.
'But it is important to remind the culprits that it is illegal in New Zealand and Australia to steal someone's identity and distribute naked images without consent. If anyone reading this is currently using someone else's intimate images or are considering doing so, then they should think again.'

‘Creepy': Porn stars issue warning as alarming new trend explodes
A top adult content creator says a 'creepy' new trend has exploded in the porn industry – one that has left female stars feeling 'violated' and 'uneasy'. New Zealand's biggest OnlyFans star Layla Kelly is one of many being flooded with messages from male subscribers posing as women in order to gain intimate access to her that would otherwise be off limits.

Sami Sheen cryptically blasted ‘toxic' relationships one day before mum Denise Richards' divorce announcement
Sami Sheen gave advice on 'toxic' relationships just one day before her stepdad, Aaron Phypers, shockingly filed for divorce from her mom, Denise Richards. On Sunday, the OnlyFans creator posted a TikTok video of how she determines whether she should cut off an unhealthy relationship. Perhaps not-so subtly, she discussed how she would handle a 'toxic' relationship if she was a mother. 'You need to ask yourself, if you had a daughter and she was dating a man like this, what would you tell her?' she asked. 'And then boom, you're like, OK, I would tell her to break up with him, I would tell her to block him, move on, he's a piece of s***, he treats her like s***, and that works for me.' Sheen, 21, noted it can be easy to overlook signs of a bad relationship. She also shared that she was naturally a 'very motherly person' and that she definitely wanted to have children one day. 'Imagine your friend in this situation or your mom or your sibling. Picturing someone else in your exact situation and if they came to you being like, 'Hey, my boyfriend is doing X, Y and Z to me,' you need to tell them what to do then there's your answer,' she said. 'And I understand more than anyone, it's so hard and almost feels impossible sometimes to get out of a toxic relationship and the judgment from people when you keep going back to that person — it's a whole cycle,' she continued. Sheen later replied to a comment on the post asking, 'What if you married one?' 'It's never too late to leave,' she responded. Phypers, 52, filed for divorce from Richards, 54, in Los Angeles on Monday after nearly seven years of marriage. The actor listed July 4 as their separation date and cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for their split in court documents obtained by Page Six. The split came as a shock as just months before, Richards vowed she would 'never' get divorced again. 'Even if we hate each other, I'm not gonna f****** get divorced,' the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum said on a March episode of her Bravo series, 'Denise Richards & Her Wild Things.' Phypers added, 'No, we'll just have different homes or something. … But we're not gonna hate each other.' Richards was previously married to Charlie Sheen from 2002 to 2006. They're parents to Sami, as well as Lola Rose Sheen, 20. The 'Wild Things' actress is also a mom to her adopted daughter, Eloise Joni, 14.

Who gets what in Denise Richards, Aaron Phypers split
Denise Richards' husband, Aaron Phypers, has filed for divorce from the actress after nearly seven years of marriage. The self-employed businessman cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for their split, Realtor reports. In court documents filed by Phypers, 52, who wed Richards, 54, in 2018 after just one year of dating, he also lifted the lid on their finances. Phypers admitted in the filing that his monthly income is next to nothing, while estimating his estranged wife rakes in around $US250,000 ($A383,000) a month from her OnlyFans account and her on-screen work. According to Fox News, the legal documents also contain information about the duo's spending habits. Phypers stated that their monthly expenses total around $US105,000 ($A160,000). About $US20,000 ($A30,000) is spent on clothing, $US18,000 ($A27,000) rent, $US15,000 ($A23,000) restaurants, $US8,000 ($A12,260) utilities and $US7000 ($A10,700) child care services. The former wellness professional explained he has not been able to contribute to these monthly costs since October 2024, when he was forced to shut down his Malibu health centre, Quantum 360 Club. In his petition, Phypers requested spousal support from the actress — and asked to keep their assets and debts as separate property, including his power tools, motorcycle, and sports car. Although the former lovebirds don't share any children, it was previously revealed that Phypers was in the process of adopting his wife's 14-year-old daughter, Eloise. However, it is unclear whether that application was ever completed. It is also unclear what the former couple's living arrangement will look like after their split — the date of which is listed in the filing as July 4 — having already set up a somewhat unique home situation for themselves long before their marriage began to fall apart. Richards lifted the lid on their unconventional home life during an episode of her reality series, 'Denise Richards and Her Wild Things', in which she stars alongside Phypers as well as her daughters, Sami, Lola, and Eloise At the time, she confessed that her current set up was 'a little confusing,' particularly because she owns a Malibu home that she doesn't actually live in — and had instead handed over to her husband's family to use as their own residence. 'My living situation is a little confusing,' she said. 'I don't live in our [Malibu] house. Aaron's mum and dad and his brother … they were going to stay for a few months, [but] it's been over three years.' Instead, Richards and her family moved into a rented townhouse to get some 'more space.' And such was the appeal of the unit she initially leased that she ended up renting two additional homes. 'I needed some space, so I rented a townhouse,' she said. 'And then I rented another one and another one, so I have three of them.' The former 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star explained each of the properties served a different purpose, revealing she and her family were using the abodes almost as though they were rooms in a house. 'One's an office, one's a studio, one's for Lola and Eloise and for us to sleep in, and then when Aaron and I want privacy, then we sleep in the studio,' she said. 'I told Sam and Lola that we can be like 'Melrose Place,' and they're like, 'What's that?'' Although she did not reveal the cost of her multiple rentals, Phypers' divorce disclosures suggest the duo were spending around $US18,000 ($A27,000) a month on housing — which would mean that each of the townhouses costs $US6,000 ($A9,100) to lease. The duo have not yet shared whether Phypers will continue to live in one of the properties, or if his family will be permitted to stay in Richards' Malibu home in the wake of their split. Three months before the news of their divorce broke, Richards' eldest daughter, Sami, lifted the lid on the somewhat turbulent environment inside the family's home. The 21-year-old confessed in April that she and her mother didn't speak for close to a year after she made the decision to move out of the house and in with her father, Charlie Sheen. The model blamed her move on the 'constant' fighting that was going on at her mother's house, admitting that she 'felt like the odd one out' inside the dwelling. 'I was living at my mum's, obviously, with Aaron [Phypers] and Lola, and we were all fighting constantly,' she said during an appearance on Gia Giudice's podcast, 'Casual Chaos.' 'I did not get along with anyone. I kind of felt like the odd one out and being the older sister, the blame was, like, always thrown on me for everything. 'I was really struggling mentally in that house, and there's obviously a lot that I wish I could say, but I'll get in trouble for saying [it].' Sami initially announced her decision to leave Richards' property in a video posted to TikTok. The media personality referred to her mum's abode as a 'hell house' and claimed she had been 'trapped in an abusive household.' In response, an unnamed insider told People magazine that Richards had been struggling to come to terms with her daughter's decision. The former 'James Bond' star believed she had simply been setting 'normal' boundaries for her then-17-year-old child. Richards and Phypers began dating in June 2017, having met for the first time at his wellness centre in Malibu, where the actress was undergoing 'preventative DNA repair,' she later revealed. They quickly struck up a romance and tied the knot in a private ceremony in Malibu just one year later. Prior to his relationship with Richards, Phypers was briefly married to 'Desperate Housewives' star Nicollette Sheridan. They finalised their divorce in August 2018. Meanwhile, Richards had a very highly publicised marriage to actor Sheen from 2002 and 2006, and the duo share two children — Sami and Lola. The actress had previously insisted that she would never get a divorce again while reflecting on her separation from Sheen, admitting that she hated the 'Judgement' she faced after their split. 'The judgment from other people and being made out to be this awful woman, I'll never get divorce, even if we hate each other,' she said.
