Lily Allen sparks uproar with 'free' feet pictures to promote Only Fans account: ‘I don’t get it’
Katie Waissel on duty of care for people in the music industry
GB NEWS
Lily Allen has left fans of her music and social media followers baffled after she posted “free” images of her feet in order to drive people to subscribe to her Only Fans page.
Back in July, the singer launched her Only Fans account to sell photos and videos of her feet for a monthly subscription of $10 (£8).
She opened up about the reason for launching the subscription page on her Miss Me? Podcast, saying: “I have a lady that comes and does my nails.
“They informed me that I have five stars on WikiFeet, which is quite rare. My feet are rated quite highly on the internet.
“She said that I could make a lot of money from selling foot content on OnlyFans, and I’m like, ‘Not now’. It is going very well. It’s been a real eye-opener.
“I’ve had a lot of disparaging, you know, horrible messages in my DMs. I’m talking really personal, nasty.”

Since the revelation of her account, it seems that Allen has taken a backseat in posting images of her feet, but was quick to remind people there was an “archive” of photos they could still look at.
Posting four images to show the type of content fans would see if they signed up, Allen: “Haven't posted in a while but you can still check out the archive.”
This left fans in a frenzy as one replied: “Imagine being one of the biggest pop stars/musicians in Europe and then being reduced to this.”
“Absolutely abysmal woman,” another added, before a third said: “I mean, they're great feet Lily, But I don't get it if I'm honest.”

“Damn giving them freebies now,” someone else noted over the free content, leaving another to quip: “I was just about to eat my dinner, cheers.”
Another baffled user asked: “What in the world? Where’s the onlyalbums? (onlybands)? I want new music! Not feet!”
However, not all of her followers were left shocked by the post, as one praised: “Not these for free?! Love how this triggers the haters Lily. Take care.”
Another agreed: “I love this. Thanks for helping to take away the stigma of doing OF & SW.” (sic)
When she originally received backlash for the account, Allen clapped back at one user who attempted to shame her for selling pictures of her feet.
She slammed: “Imagine being an artist and having nearly eight million monthly listeners on Spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet.

“Don’t hate the player, hate the game.”
The Not Fair singer also opened up on how her husband – Stranger Things star David Harbour – felt about her selling images of her body to strangers online.
She told her podcast co-host Miquita Oliver: “At first, he was like, not turned on, but he was like, ‘Is this a kink for you?’
“And I was like, ‘No, it’s totally not a kink,’ but maybe there’s something in the power element of it that’s slightly kinky for me.”
