Hailey Welch reached one million Instagram followers after revealing her Playboy rejection. Welch now has representation and stands to earn over $30,000 from three public appearances this week alone.
The influx of earnings into Welch’s account clarifies her decision to avoid OnlyFans despite its potential for significant income.
Even as her public appearance opportunities may dwindle, Welch plans to steer clear of the exclusive content platform.
Welch’s refusal isn’t limited to OnlyFans. Following her viral “Spit on that thang” interview, Playboy expressed interest in working with her and a friend. In a recent Instagram video celebrating her milestone of a million followers, Welch addressed this offer, among other rumours about her rise to internet fame. She confirmed rejecting Playboy, responding directly to inquiries about the decision.
Welch’s journey from a small-town girl to extending her fame beyond the usual fleeting moments illustrates her ability to capitalize on her viral status without yielding to the pressures of paid exclusive content platforms.
