Sopranos star Drea de Matteo says OnlyFans paid her mortgage “in five minutes”

Actress Drea de Matteo revealed that OnlyFans paid off her mortgage in minutes after financial troubles fell to her feet.

When Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo was left jobless for refusing to get vaccinated, she turned to OnlyFans in hopes of gaining income.

With $10 to her name and her house in foreclosure, Matteo needed to make money quickly before things got any worse.

Fortunately, after only five minutes of being on OnlyFans, Matteo was able to make enough money to not only survive but she also raked in enough to pay off her mortgage.

Drea de Matteo launches streetwear brand with OnlyFans earnings 

Though Matteo was reluctant to join OnlyFans, when she saw the dollar signs increase, she couldn’t resist but to share explicit photos and content for her subscribers.

At the time of joining last year, Matteo’s mother with dementia had also run out of money to pay for her care, so Matteo needed to find a way for both herself and her family.

Opening up with Daily Mail, Matteo shared how OnlyFans changed her life, “’It saved us — OnlyFans saved my life, 100 percent. I can’t believe I’m saying that, but it really did save us.”

Matteo went on to say that although people have “condemned” and put her down for her racy work, she doesn’t wish anyone to be in the same situation that made her turn to OnlyFans in the first place.

Looking back to the very beginning of her time on OnlyFans, Matteo expressed how shocked she was when she made enough money in five minutes to save her house from foreclosure.

Now, she loves what she does and enjoys “carb loading” for her photos, as she feels she looks best when she’s not so skinny.

As for what’s next for Matteo, she’ll continue to make explicit content on OnlyFans. She also has her own streetwear brand, ULTRAFREE, which she was able to fund with her OF earnings.
