A teenage girl says her controversial mum bizarrely advised her to join OnlyFans – all because of a disastrous date.
Tanisha, 19, thought she had found her “Christian Grey” – but the bloke was all fur coat and no knickers after taking her to a cheap hotel room.
The excited young model had bought a new outfit for what she thought would be a glam rendezvous – only to end up munching greasy fried chicken from a takeout box.
Her mum, Carla Bellucci, was equally unimpressed and her reaction was to tell her daughter that it would be safer chatting to men on OnlyFans instead of meeting lads from the internet in person.
Speaking about the meet-up, Tanisha told us: “I was blindsided and had the impression we were going to a luxurious spa weekend to get to know each other and enjoy each other’s company.
“I invested time getting ready and buying new clothes but when we arrived it was a two star hotel and a fried chicken order on Uber Eats.
“He was a nice guy like they are all but very cheap… there was no wining and dining and he was just looking for one thing and he should have been straight up about it – but I guess that’s how these guys get what they want.”
Unsurprisingly, her mum, who faked depression to get her hands on a free NHS nose job, had a lot to say about what happened.
Carla, 42, believes the glitzy assurances made before the date should demonstrate to other parents and their children the dangers of social media.
“This is a warning for young girls looking for love on the net,” she told us. “This guy was unbelievable and gave her all the chat for weeks and what’s what he came up with.
“I am pleading with mums to open their eyes as I hate to say it but this generation is a bunch of morons. They don’t listen and they believe social media is real.
“I have now advised Tanisha that if you are going to talk to any Tom, Dick or Harry then open an OnlyFans – at least you are in control and making money and not ending up in dodgy hotel rooms with false promises.”
Mum-of-four Carla also advised her eldest daughter to stop chatting to “online freaks” who could potentially be dangerous and to meet someone in person without rushing.
The social media influencer had been an OnlyFans model for two years – but quit in 2022 after claiming the site had become sleazy.
She herself insisted that she only ever sold glamorous bikini photos – and we asked her daughter about whether she would take her advice and follow in her footsteps.
“My mum's success makes it very tempting,” she said. “But she always tell me it’s not an easy thing. People won’t know that my mum is actually very smart when it comes to business.”
Tanisha added: “She is a lot more strict than people know and she is always on my back and just wants the best for me – and she goes crazy at me for talking to guys on the internet.”
