Lamar Odom has found an unexpected new source of income, and his latest business venture is apparently off to an impressive start.
The former Los Angeles Lakers star and two-time NBA champion reportedly earned more than $50,000 during his first eight days on OnlyFans, with early projections suggesting he could eventually bring in more than $200,000.
According to TMZ Sports, which first reported the figures, Odom charges subscribers $14.99 per month for access to exclusive photographs and videos. A representative for the 47-year-old subsequently confirmed his initial earnings to People.
And judging by Odom’s reaction, the response has exceeded his expectations.
“The response to my OnlyFans has been incredible,” Odom said in a statement, explaining that he sees the platform as an opportunity to build a more personal relationship with his audience.
He also revealed ambitions beyond his own account, expressing interest in encouraging other professional athletes to explore similar opportunities.
Odom officially launched his page on October 27, describing the move as a chance to show fans a different side of his personality.
The former forward, who spent 14 seasons in the NBA, has rarely shied away from public attention. Beyond his basketball accomplishments, his marriage to reality television personality Khloé Kardashian and his highly publicized personal struggles made him a familiar figure well outside the sports world.
But his latest career move represents something entirely different. While OnlyFans is widely associated with adult entertainment, the platform also allows public figures to monetize exclusive content and communicate directly with paying subscribers.
TMZ reports that Odom has already shared nude photographs. His girlfriend, Rachel Bradley, has also launched an account, and the couple is reportedly considering producing content together.
During his playing career, the versatile 6-foot-10 forward helped Kobe Bryant and the Lakers win consecutive NBA championships in 2009 and 2010. He also earned Sixth Man of the Year honors in 2011, establishing himself as one of the league’s most valuable complementary players.
More than a decade after his NBA career ended, Odom is finding new ways to capitalize on the fame he accumulated during those championship years.
