She’s become known as “Australia’s most sexually active woman” in recent years thanks to her headline-making OnlyFans stunts and controversial Schoolies antics, and now Annie Knight is taking over the reality TV space.
The 29-year-old adult content creator and self-described “promiscuous princess” is one of the nine women starring in the brand new Stan series Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, but it turns out this isn’t her first attempt at making a splash on TV.
Annie told PEDESTRIAN.TV’s podcast Villain Edit that, although it’s been her dream “for as long as [she] can remember” to appear on a reality show, she’s consistently been rejected by major networks due to her career.
“I’ve applied for pretty much all of them. They all said, ‘We love you, we want you on the show, but you need to delete your OnlyFans’,” she revealed.
“So I was like, ‘Well, I’m not getting rid of my only source of income to go on a show for one season’. So I’m glad that this all worked out the way that it did.”
Lily Phillips reveals the reality shows she almost appeared on
Meanwhile, Annie’s co-star and fellow controversial OnlyFans creator Lily Phillips confessed on Villain Edit that she’s also had a few sliding doors moments when it comes to reality TV.
“I got offered Dating Naked UK. I was like, I’m not going to be naked for free, come on!” she recalled. The Brit also shared that she once applied for Love Island UK but didn’t end up getting cast because she “wasn’t fit enough”.
“And to be honest, I think I would end up shagging the whole cast, so it’s probably a no from that,” she joked.

Addressing the backlash
Annie and Lily’s new reality show, Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, has already copped plenty of backlash on social media, with Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 bride Stella Mickunaite arguing that sexualised content shouldn’t appear on a nationwide platform.
“Look, all power to the girls who are free to do this, absolute freedom of choice. But glamorising it to young and impressionable people and being advertised via channels here doesn’t sit well with me,” she wrote on Instagram.
Lily has since addressed the controversy, telling Villain Edit that she completely disagrees with Stella’s take because the show doesn’t “glamorise” the adult industry at all.
“I think the show shows every single part of the industry — the good, the bad, the ugly,” she said. “So, I wouldn’t exactly say we’re pushing it in front of young and impressionable people when we’re showing all the bad parts as well.”
Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money is streaming now on Stan, with episodes dropping weekly on Friday.
