An Australian adult content creator has pulled back the curtain on the highly unusual and lucrative world of niche online fetishes, revealing she earns thousands by fulfilling bizarre fan requests that often involve no nudity whatsoever.
The Lucrative World of Niche Requests
Emily Mai, a 35-year-old mother-of-two and former stripper, told the Daily Mail that her biggest money-makers on OnlyFans are surprisingly mundane. She commands fees starting at AU$300, and rising to as much as AU$1,000, for creating custom videos that cater to very specific desires.
"Lately I've been getting a lot of burp requests," Emily explained. "So drinking soft drink – their favourite is Sprite – and then burping as long and as loud as possible." She noted that a five-minute burping video requires hours of preparation, including buying the drinks, filming, and then going to the gym to burn off the calories because her clients "still want me to look fit."
Another popular category involves messy food, where fans pay to watch her eat pasta or juicy burgers, letting sauce drip down her arms and face. Perhaps one of the most surprising trends is the demand for armpit content. "I've also been getting a lot of armpit requests, and I don't even feel like I have nice armpits," she said. "I just have all these guys who want to see me smelling my armpits, licking my armpits, or just showing them off."
Roleplay and Hard Limits
Emily's repertoire extends into elaborate roleplay scenarios. She earns significant sums by pretending to be pregnant and ordering fans around as if they were her partner. "They want me to roleplay being their pregnant partner and I'm ordering them around because I'm too tired to move," she described. "So I'll huff and puff a bit while asking them to grab things for me or rub my feet."
However, she recalled one request as the strangest she has ever received. "My strangest request was this one guy who wanted me to send him a humiliation video," Emily recalled. "I would have to repeatedly tell him that his girlfriend secretly hated him and wanted to sleep with his best mate instead." She fulfilled this request two or three times for the client.
Despite her openness to many niche fetishes, Emily Mai maintains strict hard limits. She firmly refuses any requests involving defecation or being asked to fart on demand.
Building a Six-Figure Career
Emily, who began her career as a stripper and pole dancer, has built a six-figure online business by leaning into these specific fetish markets. Her success skyrocketed particularly during her two pregnancies, when she created content centred around her changing body.
She previously disclosed that subscribers spent a collective AU$14,710 on video calls simply to watch her rub her pregnant belly, with one individual spending over AU$3,000 on a single call. An additional AU$10,615 came from fans who just wanted to 'sext' with her while she was pregnant.
"I went from making [AU$758 to AU$4,549] a month to making [AU$30,329 to AU$60,659] a month while pregnant," she revealed, claiming that half of that income was generated solely from pregnancy-related content. This highlights the substantial financial potential in catering to highly specialised audience demands within the digital content sphere.
