Kate Nash, a well-known pop star from the 2000s, has recently made a surprising move to raise funds for her upcoming tour. She has joined the popular subscription site OnlyFans, becoming the latest celebrity to do so. At 37 years old, Kate has openly expressed that touring is not a profitable venture, but rather a passion project for many musicians, including herself.
Being a vocal advocate for the struggling music community, Kate has always been transparent about the difficulties artists face in sustaining their careers. With the rising costs of touring and a lack of change in gig fees, many musicians are struggling to make ends meet. Fed up with the current state of the industry, Kate has taken matters into her own hands and launched a campaign on OnlyFans called "Butts For Tour Buses."
In an interview, Kate shared, "While touring is the best job ever, it has become more of a passion project for most artists in 2024. A recent survey by Pirate Studios revealed that while ticket and festival prices continue to rise, only a select few are becoming millionaires or even billionaires from touring. The majority of musicians are struggling to afford to play shows due to the increasing costs of travel, accommodation, food, promotion, and employees."
In light of this, Kate is determined to provide her fans with an unforgettable and immersive experience at her live shows. She has even joked that there is no need to stream her music, as she only receives a measly 0.003 of a penny per stream. Instead, she encourages her fans to support her by buying her merchandise or subscribing to her OnlyFans account, katenyash87.
Despite her success with hit songs like "Foundations" and "Skeleton Song," Kate has faced financial struggles in the past. She has voiced her concerns about the music industry becoming a "rich people space" and believes that working-class artists are being shut out. In an interview with The Guardian, she admitted to trusting the wrong people with her finances and having to sell her flat and move back in with her parents.
Reflecting on her journey in the industry, Kate said, "I'd worked so hard and had nothing to show for it. The worst part was that I knew I wasn't going to give up. I briefly thought about becoming a teacher, but I didn't have a degree because I didn't get into any universities. So, I knew I had to keep fighting for my career."
Kate is not the only celebrity who has joined OnlyFans in recent years. The site is now filled with well-known names such as Kerry Katona, Katie Price, Lily Allen, Cardi B, Bella Thorne, Blac Chyna, Iggy Azalea, Carmen Electra, Lottie Moss, and Tana Mongeau. Male celebrities like Tyga also use OnlyFans to share exclusive content with their fans.
In conclusion, Kate Nash's decision to join OnlyFans may be unconventional, but it highlights the struggles that musicians face in the industry. It's a bold move that has sparked conversations about the current state of the music industry and the impact it has on artists. Only time will tell if other celebrities will follow in Kate's footsteps, but for now, her fans can support her by subscribing to her OnlyFans and attending her live shows.
