Skint student who ditched uni and set up OnlyFans makes £2m pretending to be a giant

A woman who dropped out of university after joining OnlyFans is now "set for life" raking in more than £2million.

Kaya Corbridge, 25, has more than 100,000 people subscribed to her photos and videos and has been asked for all sorts of things including to pretend to be a giant.

Kaya, from Lancashire, joined OnlyFans in 2017 and quit her international relations degree at Leeds Beckett University soon afterwards, reports the Liverpool Echo.

She said she has been asked for all sorts of things, from pictures of her feet to eating videos and even pretending to be a giant.

Kaya said: "I've had people asking me to shave my hair off, I've had invites to people's weddings which is a bit strange. These people have never met me.

"There are food fetishes, where people want me to pour beans on myself, there's a giant fetish where people want me to pretend that I'm a giant and I'm squashing them.

"So in that, I use the camera angle on the floor to make me look bigger and like use a little Lego man that they pretend is them.

"It doesn't feel strange at all anymore. Nothing surprises me anymore, it's just normal for me now."

In March 2021, she had 18,000 subscribers and had earned £635,147 in the year from March 2020, Leeds Live reports.

Her reach has exploded since then, as she got into TikTok to find new ways to bring in subscribers and fans, and now has almost 100,000 people signed up.

While most of these are paying subscribers, in the past she said has given out free subscriptions to "give back", such as to health workers during the pandemic and more recently to disabled people.

Kaya had her best performing month ever in January 2022, when she made £83,000 in just a month.

Even a bad month, she said, means an income of around £37,000.

Kaya said: "It's just going from strength to strength. I'm still surprising myself all the time and it's been four years.

"I've been able to travel the world, which was my lifelong dream.

"I've been able to help my family, put through my sister through education, help my brother buy a house, help my parents if they need it.

"I've always said that I'll stop when the money stops but it doesn't stop - it just gets better.

"When I first started people did not know what OnlyFans was.

"But it was the pandemic that made things soar. Now everyone knows someone who uses it.

"I don't think there's competition though. There's enough money out there for us all and you've just got to go and take it.

"I do want to put some more roots down now though and focus on the business."

Kaya is now in the process of purchasing her own farm for her and her two dogs.

She doesn't regret leaving university though but advises others considering the same to think carefully.

Kaya continued: "It's something you've really got to think about. I did it to earn extra money because I literally couldn't afford to be at university and feed myself. I didn't have help doing that.

"I had the highest loan but I still didn't have enough money to pay for my rent.

"It depends on your situation. For other people, I'd say think carefully if you're wanting to earn extra money at university.

"Obviously, you're at university because you want a certain career, while I went just to go university because everyone else was.

"This is perfect for me because I get to work for myself, travel the world, do all the work from my phone. It's comfortable for me but once you do it there's no going back.

"It has worried me in the past but because of how much I've made now and the way I invest my money I've kind of set myself up for life.

"Not everyone will have the same success as that though - I've been here since early on and I think it would've been much harder if I'd started now."
