All-American Rejects Frontman Tyson Ritter Joining OnlyFans to Continue Band's ‘Disruptive' Streak

In recent weeks, The All-American Rejects have been going viral for performances at small house parties. And now, frontman Tyson Ritter is taking his talents to an even more intimate space: OnlyFans.
As revealed Wednesday (June 4) through an interview with GQ, the rock singer has decided to set up an account on the creator-focused online subscription platform, which has become known for its NSFW content. According to Ritter, he's more focused on using the website to build a closer, more direct relationship with fans — but they might be able to expect a little bit of the risqué on top of it.

'I don't think anybody would have expected the All-American Rejects to make a ripple in the water ever again,' began Ritter of his band, which dominated the pop-rock landscape in the 2000s before fading from the mainstream in the 2010s. 'So the excitement behind this whole thing is like, 'Where else can we be disruptive?''
'We've always been a band who's got a tongue bursting through the cheek when it comes to our music,' he continued. 'So why not, you know, do a little peen bursting through a zipper?'
The musician remained vague about what his subscribers are in for, divulging only that they 'can expect full-frontal rock n' roll with all access.' Adding that he doesn't plan on making fans pay very much to access his content — 'If anything, maybe you'll pay 69 cents, just because we're little cheeky cats,' he quipped — Ritter said that bandmates Nick Wheeler, Mike Kennerty and Chris Gaylor are totally supportive of his new venture.
At press time, Ritter's OnlyFans account did not appear to have launched yet.
The band's latest 'disruptive' move comes as the All-American Rejects have been experiencing a renaissance online thanks to their string of viral house-party performances. According to Ritter, the streak (of smaller shows, not the other kind) began about a month prior to the interview, when the band somewhat spontaneously accepted an offer to perform at a college rager near the University of Southern California. One of their recent performances at a house party near the University of Missouri was shut down by police — but not before the responding officers stopped to listen to a few more songs, per CNN.
Ritter is far from the only star to have joined OnlyFans, with several other musicians having turned to the platform as an additional source of income — or as a way of engaging more personally with listeners — over the years. Cardi B, Rico Nasty and The-Dream have all created accounts on the platform, while Lily Allen joined the platform last year to sell pictures of her feet.
'I think most people don't realize that OnlyFans was a product of the pandemic that started as a Patreon for artists,' Ritter added to GQ of the site. 'And then it was infiltrated by a genre that made it become a bit of a trope. It's a platform that is offering an experience where the artist can set the price, and it's artists-to-fans. There's no middleman.'

All the Celebrities With OnlyFans Accounts

A surprising number of celebrities have joined OnlyFans in recent years, creating exclusive content for fans willing to pay for a monthly subscription. Lily Allen is the latest star to join other famous faces from Denise Richards to Carmen Electra on the platform most commonly associated with sexual content. For those that don't know, OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform that was founded back in 2016, and grew insanely popular during the pandemic as sex workers looked for new ways to make money from home. The sex worker community have embraced the platform as a means of finding autonomy in an industry that can be exploitative and dangerous. While there is a lot of content on the site, it's mainly used for NSFW content. Many sex workers swear by the platform, earning the big bucks for their racy images and videos, and within recent years, quite a few celebrities have joined in on the site as well. Over the years, many celebrities have hopped on the OnlyFans train, some staying for only a few months before deleting their account and some finding an insanely great level of success from the platform. For those that have stayed, they frequently talk about how not only did they connect on a different level with their fans, but that their confidence has soared. From Baywatch stars to Disney alums, so many stars have been turning up the heat with their sexy OnlyFans pages. See which stars have OnlyFans accounts below! A version of this article was originally published on Jan 2023.

Songwriter Brooke Candy, whose previously worked on Oscar-winning film Anora, told Page Six that she's leaving mainstream media to do OnlyFans. 'With this new chapter on OnlyFans, I finally have a space where I can share my vision freely, without judgment,' she said. 'For years, I've had to work around censorship on platforms that weren't designed for artists like me—those who break the mold, celebrate sexuality, and push artistic limits. But I've never been one to conform or dilute my artistry to fit within someone else's boundaries.' She shared that it wont be about the photos, but it'll be a musical experience. 'I've spent months collaborating with an incredible team to build something truly special—something bold, immersive, and completely uncensored. This isn't just content; it's an experience,' she continued. 'I can't wait for people to see what we've created and to finally share my art in a space where authenticity, freedom, and artistry are celebrated without restrictions.'

How magical! Owl drop near daily. Wizard warning: Will not do explicit sexual content. Might be in my underwear.' Singer Kate Nash just launched an OnlyFans to help fund her tour, calling it 'BUTTS 4 Tour Buses.' She launched it to post photos of her bottom to help fund her tour, telling her OnlyFans to fans for $10 a month. 'I also think it's bit of a punk protest as a woman to take control of my body and sell it to be able to fund my passion project, which is actually my 18-year career,' she said via MSN. 'I want to highlight that, and I want people to talk about it, and I want people to know the truth about what what's happening in the music business. I'm losing money from those tours.' Lily Allen launched her OnlyFans account on July 2, much to the surprise of her fans. According to Billboard, the singer is selling pictures and videos of her feet for $10 a month. The business move comes after she recently stated on her podcast that she was considering selling foot-related content. 'I have a lady that comes and does my nails,' she told co-host Miquita Oliver. '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,' Allen added. 'And I'm like, 'Not no.'' Cardi B dabbles in OnlyFans from time to time, joining in 2021 to create exclusive, behind-the-scenes content. She reportedly earned a whopping $112 million on the platform in her first year. Back in late 2023, model Carol Alt joined OnlyFans at 62 years old. 'I can choose a photo or not, say I want it or not, they are mine,' she told Page Six. 'I can shoot how I want to shoot. It's the wave of the future… When people say it isn't my image, I don't want to be defined by someone else image [of me]. I want to define my own image.' The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo recently joined the platform, specifically in Aug 2023 and has already made headlines for her jaw-dropping photos! Actress and TV personality Coco Austin revealed in February 2023 that she had joined OnlyFans. Austin announced the news to Instagram posting a sexy picture of her going pantsless with only a floral robe. 'Yes, I'm on OnlyFans now… You won't be sorry.. ❤️,' she wrote in the caption. Rapper Iggy Azalea announced on Jan 13 that she is the newest member of the NSFW platform. According to Variety, the Australian native plans to stream exclusive and uncensored photos, videos, music, illustrations and poetry as part of the 'Hotter Than Hell X OnlyFans' collaboration. Fans can get access to all the sexy content for $25 per month. Denise Richards joined the subscription-based site back June 2022, only days after her daughter Sami Sheen announced she was joining it. Since then, she's made everyone turn heads with her NSFW posts and sexy behind-the-scenes outtakes she posts on her Instagram. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star charges $25 a month for access to all of her exclusive content. Blac Chyna's joined back in April 2020 and was once one of the top earners on the platform but she gave it all up in mid 2023. During an appearance on the Jason Lee Show, she revealed that she initially joined the platform to make money amid legal woes but eventually left for the sake of her kids, saying: 'At a certain age, they see and gravitate to everything.' She explained: 'It's a dead end. All that stuff is a dead end, and I know that I'm worth way more than that.' 'Shout out to the people that do still have their OnlyFans and stuff like that,' she added before advising: 'Get your money, don't let the money make you.' Baywatch alum Donna D'Errico was already turning up the heat on her Instagram before she moved to OnlyFans in Aug 2022. She defended her choice to join the website in a post on Instagram shortly after joining, saying, 'I obviously don't take myself, or the fact that I'm on that site, too seriously. All these celebs posting nude and topless pics of themselves here on IG and Twitter all the time covering their important bits with their hands. Boom, thousands of likes & comments talking about body positivity and confidence and empowerment and you go girl! Hot!.' Kate Moss' younger sister Lottie Moss made headlines when she announced she was joining the website back in June 2021, saying that those who tip her $200+ would get 'unlimited free chat' and 'pantie purchases.' The British model shares some cheeky pics on her Instagram, and fans truly get captivated by her saucy videos and pics on her pay-per-post OnlyFans account. Lottie previously told on the Call Her Daddy podcast, 'I feel most liberated when I'm naked, I feel huge power in just being very happy, being sexual.' Danielle Bregoli, better known by her stage name 'Bhad Bhabie,' launched her OnlyFans account after she turned 18 in April 2021, earning over $1 million within the first six hours of uploading a photo. Later, she claimed she made over $50 million after less than a year on the platform, showing receipts per TMZ. Shanna Moakler launched her OnlyFans account in June 2021, telling Page Six that same month, 'I'm very comfortable with nudity. I always have been being a former Playmate, being in Maxim. I'm not trying to get crazy in my career now at my age, but I'm definitely willing to have some fun and make it a great experience for everybody.' Baywatch alum Carmen Electra may have one of the steamiest OnlyFans accounts in Hollywood, and fans are quite literally obsessed. She joined OnlyFans back in May 2022, quickly making her in the top .01 percent of earners on the subscription-based does a pay-per-post sort of model, rather than having subscribers pay for the whole month. In a previous interview with OutKick, Electra talked about how much OnlyFans has actually improved her life, saying, 'OnlyFans fits in perfectly because I am the creative director of my own shoots, on my own time. There's nothing out there that I haven't approved. And I love connecting with my fans.' Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen caught a lot of flak when she created an OnlyFans account in May 2021 after her affair with Malik Beasley became public knowledge. While she does still have an active account, Pippen revealed at the end of 2023 that she was focused more on other aspects of her career. 'OnlyFans, it's on my list still, it's just not on the top tier of my priorities now. There's times I focus on certain businesses [more] than others,' she told People. YouTuber Tana Mongeau has been on the platform since 2020, giving fans a saucier look into her chaotic, party-filled life. And things get crazy on her profile, which she hints at in her bio, saying, 'the only place i'm allowed to be naked and crazy…' Her joining actually crashed the site at one point, so you can imagine how steamy it gets on there! One person we didn't expect to join OnlyFans was singer/songwriter Austin Mahone, but when he joined in Oct 2020, he said he was ready 'to mix it up and be more open with my fans.' For a while, he uploaded exclusive content with his music, but over time, things have gotten saucier. 'I feel like I've reached an age and a point in my career where I'm ready to mix it up and be more open with my fans,' he said in a statement with Today Headline. 'I'm excited to show my fans a different side of me than they may be used seeing on my other social media accounts.' Amber Rose joined OnlyFans in 2020 and, as a former stripper, was largely accepted by other sex workers on the platform. In a November 2023 interview, Rose said she has no concerns about her son, Bash, knowing she does OnlyFans. 'He doesn't care. I taught him from a very early age that you cannot tell women what to do with their bodies. That's it. So, if a girl is on OnlyFans and she's making money off her feet pictures or if guys are stupid enough to buy pictures and videos of girls, let the girl make the money,' she explained. 'Listen, you can't hide anything. You can't hide anything from your children nowadays. If you do try to do that, they will go somewhere else and get misinformed.' Bella Thorne was the first major celebrity to join OnlyFans, sparking outrage when she made $1 million in one day after joining in August 2020. Sex workers who were already using OnlyFans, criticized the star for forever altering the platform and taking work away from people who needed it.

Seventy years after his premature death, there's still never been anyone in these parts quite like Harry Agganis

I was one of the many young lads growing up in the '50s who was enraptured by the fictional exploits of Clair Bee's Chip Hilton, a brilliant three-sports star who also never said or did anything wrong. But young people growing up in our area from 1945-55 actually had such a real-life model in Agganis, who received equal praise in his lifetime for his athletic accomplishments and the way he carried himself on a daily basis. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up He began compiling his résumé in his early teens, when he attracted attention for his summertime baseball exploits. Before he was out of high school, he would play in baseball All-Star Games in Wrigley Field, Ebbets Field, the Polo Grounds, and, of course, Fenway Park. His Lynn Classical baseball team would win a state championship. He would have a high school football career without equal. Then came Boston University, a brief stint in the Marine Corps, and a move to the Boston Red Sox, who beat out the NFL for his services. Advertisement One more thing: Agganis's basketball exploits also were worthy of a college scholarship. A teammate happened to be Kentucky great — and future Celtic — Lou Tsioropoulos, who played with Agganis at Classical before graduating from Lynn English. Related : Advertisement Agganis's influence on his collegiate alma mater is on display 365 days a year with the presence on Commonwealth Avenue of the dazzling Agganis Arena. Naming it in his honor was an easy call. Along the way, he twice landed on the cover of Sport magazine, which was a must-read for any serious fan at that time. The first time it was a solo, and the second time it was shared with Allie Reynolds, Doak Walker, and Jackie Robinson, which was pretty good company. Agganis made such an impression as a Marine in his one year in uniform that a field has been named for him at Camp Lejeune. And, are you ready for this? On June 6, 1954, he hit a winning home run at Fenway against the Tigers, and when the game was over he hustled down Comm. Ave. to Braves Field, where he received his BU degree. Even Chip Hilton never did that. Nor Mickey Mantle. It was the only time a local athlete was cheered in two major league ballparks on the same day. Have I mentioned he had a fan club while in high school? Or that he also had the lead in his high school's production of 'Stage Door'? His Lynn Classical days will never be repeated. With southpaw quarterback Harry Agganis at the controls, Classical became a power. 'Manning Bowl was the place to be,' says Johnson. No kidding. Classical played to an estimated 160,000 people during the 1947 season. That was the follow-up to the fabulously successful 1946 campaign, when Classical topped it off by defeating Granby High of Norfolk, Va., in the North-South Shrine Game, which was played in the Orange Bowl. Advertisement Classical made news the following year by spurning an invitation to defend its crown for a most exemplary reason. Led by Agganis, Classical refused to leave behind Black teammates Paul Pittman and Tom Smith. This was in sharp contrast to the shameful Boston College decision six years earlier to play in the Sugar Bowl without Black running back Lou Montgomery. It is impossible to exaggerate Agganis's football skill. He passed. He ran. He punted. His nephew Mike Agganis loves to point out that one year he also intercepted a pass for every TD toss. Statistics and touchdowns are only the beginning of the Harry Agganis story. His elders had never encountered anyone like him. 'I have never once heard him say an unkind word about anybody nor utter an oath or curse,' said his high school football coach, Bill Joyce. 'In all my 28 years of coaching boys at Classical, he is the only boy from whom I have actually learned and from who I have actually sought advice.' Harry Agganis was not a mere local phenomenon. In 1947, he was chosen captain of the All-America high school football team by the 'Wigwam Wisemen of Oklahoma.' The word was out. He was recruited by more than 60 schools, which was a lot in those days. Among his most ardent pursuers was Notre Dame immortal Frank Leahy. It turned out those outsiders never had a chance. To the delight of Terriers coach Buff Donelli, Agganis chose BU because he didn't want to go far away from his widowed mother. A few years later, he would use the same reasoning to choose the Red Sox. Advertisement Before that choice, however, there was a stellar career at BU. It did not take long for people to take notice. In November 1949, Agganis's sophomore year, legendary Washington Post columnist Shirley Povich wrote the following: 'With each succeeding Saturday, what was Agganis's purely localized fame in New England has been burgeoning all over the football landscape.' The big issue eventually confronting Agganis was deciding between a professional career in football or baseball. Cleveland Browns pooh-bah Paul Brown lusted for him, but in the end Agganis chose to stay with the hometown team in what was still America's favorite sport. As was the custom everywhere he went, Agganis became the toast of Louisville en route to Fenway. He was named 'Colonel of the Year' by the Triple A affiliate, citing his 'brilliant performances on the field and his gentlemanly disposition.' After going through an up-and-down rookie season in 1954, he was figuring things out and was batting a robust .313 with some power when he was stricken with a blood clot issue in early June. He entered the hospital on June 5, 1955. He died of a pulmonary embolism emanating from the blood clot on June 27. The front page of the June 27, 1955, Boston Evening Globe shared the news of the death of Harry Agganis. Globe archives The news was stunning. Harry Agganis was Boston's young prince. He was only 26. How could this be? Austen Lake of the Boston Record-American spoke for countless thousands when he wrote, 'Now Harry is dead! My ears hear it, but my mind rejects the idea.' Mike Gillooly of the Record-American added this: 'He appeared immune to pain, plague, pox, virus, and that's why the death of Harry Agganis yesterday pierced the heart of the city; plunged the entire sports world into deep grief.' Advertisement The story was only going to get better. A deal was being worked out with the Red Sox allowing Agganis to report to training camp with the Baltimore Colts in 1955. Nope. You couldn't make this up. With Harry Agganis, you never had to fabricate anything. He just was. Bob Ryan can be reached at
