Donna Mills, the iconic actress known for her role as Abby Cunningham in the 1980s soap opera 'Knots Landing,' has launched a page on the subscription platform OnlyFans. The 85-year-old star stated her intention is to offer "spicy" content that engages fans in a warm and friendly manner, differentiating her approach from the explicit material often associated with the platform.
Mills, who is relatively new to OnlyFans, explained that she will not compete with younger performers and has no plans to appear naked. Instead, she aims to share intimate glimpses of her daily life, including videos of her in pajamas, painting her toenails, brushing her hair, or even ironing a man's shirt. She believes this focus on personal moments helps fans feel a closer connection, akin to feeling like a "boyfriend."
While Mills is steering clear of full nudity, she acknowledges that some fan requests have been unusual. One fan specifically asked her to film herself stomping grapes barefoot in her backyard vineyard. Mills confirmed the "grape thing is the funniest" fan demand she has received, noting a long-standing fascination some admirers have with her feet.
Mills's foray into OnlyFans was influenced by actress Shannon Elizabeth, who reportedly earned a significant sum shortly after joining the platform without resorting to full nudity. Intrigued by this possibility, Mills met with OnlyFans executives, who assured her that nudity was not a requirement for success on the platform. After consulting with her daughter, Chloe, and her long-term boyfriend, Mills decided to join.
She described the process as happening "really fast" and acknowledged challenges such as managing "cringy fan requests" and selecting outfits that balance sexiness with respectability. Learning to take selfies has also been a new endeavor for the actress, who has never considered herself a "selfie girl."
Mills adheres to a personal rule of not showing anything on OnlyFans that she has not already revealed in her career, specifically mentioning "boobs or bum." This principle extended to her 1987 photoshoot for Playboy, where she aimed for "very sexy" but not explicit images. Despite agreeing to the shoot for a promised cover, she was disappointed when her layout appeared inside the magazine without her on the cover, citing the lack of "boobs and bum" in her photos as the reason.
Mills plans to offer unused photos from that Playboy shoot as premium content to her OnlyFans subscribers. She views her presence on OnlyFans as an extension of her belief that one "can get older without being old," continuing to prioritize activities like tennis, exercise, and spending time with her grandson, all while staying connected with her fans.
