Interviewer 1
Sky. Bri.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. I hate, like, the phrase adult performer because I see.
Sky Bree
Me too. Because I just. That doesn't feel like what I am. Yeah, like, exactly.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. What about content creator? That's too, like, broad.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
You know, if I'm. If a random person asks me, what do you do? That's usually what I say. Like, I'm a content creator.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
And that, like, feels legible to people. And they. Yeah. So you're on the COVID of Richardson magazine due to your content creation being very successful.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yes.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. For people who aren't familiar with you, maybe you can give us a rundown, like an elevator pitch, like, very briefly of. Okay, so it all came together.
Sky Bree
I have been in this creator space now for this. So in, like, two months, it'll be four years. Is that a long time? Yes, that's a long time.
Interviewer 2
Content creator.
Interviewer 1
Yes.
Sky Bree
So what was the question again? Sorry, My.
Interviewer 1
Like, how did you story. Really briefly, how did you start making content?
Sky Bree
Okay. Okay. Yes.
Interviewer 1
And. Yeah.
Sky Bree
Okay. So I was working at Target during COVID and that is when OnlyFans really started to pop off. And I've always been really, really confident in my body. Like, I love my body. It's just the one thing I feel like, honestly, in all areas of my life, I'm pretty insecure. But, like, when it comes to my body and my sexuality, I'm very, very confident. So when OnlyFans became a thing, I'm like, this is maybe the perfect thing for me. So. So I just, on a whim, created an account. And this is when I'm still working at Target. And I honestly, it was just like, people from my hometown subscribed to me. Like, people that I, like, went to high school with. And, like, honestly, my co workers at Target were subscribing to me. And, yeah, I was just kind of running, like, a little side hustle. It was nice. I could pay my rent and go shopping, just a little money, like, on the side. And then I. I was a really big fan of this podcast called no Jumper. I'm not sure if you've heard of that.
Interviewer 2
I just learned about it.
Sky Bree
Yeah. So it's definitely. It's definitely changed pace a lot over the past couple years, but when I was a fan of it, it was very Like, west coast interviewing a lot of, like, upand cominging rappers and, like, a lot of people just, like, involved in, like, the west coast scene. And that really intrigued me. And I.
Interviewer 1
Because you were on the East Coast.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah, yeah. So. And I had never been to the west coast, so it was just so different. And I would always have an airpod in my one ear when I was working at Target, and I would just be listening to the podcast while I was working. And I always thought, oh, my God, I want to go on this podcast so bad. But I'm not a rapper. I have nothing to do with, like, the West Coast. Like, like, why would I ever go on? And so after I had been listening to the podcast for years and randomly, the host, Adam, 22, announced that he wanted to start bringing on girls that had OnlyFans. Because this is like, this booming thing. It was really interesting.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And I was like, I have an only fans. So I wrote an email to hr and I think it was like, a few sentences. I was like, I love the podcast. Here's my Instagram. Like, I gave my link, whatever, and then next day they wrote me back and they were like, yeah, like, we'd love to have you come on the podcast and get interviewed. So I spent the last of my money on a plane ticket to la. I quit my job at Target because I couldn't get off. So I went to LA and went on the podcast and instantly Adam, like, loved me. He introduced me to his fiance at the time. They're now married, and they were like, we want to be your manager. We see so much potential in you. And a month later, I moved out to la and it's just been. I just blew up, like, right away.
Interviewer 2
Did you have an inkling that that would happen?
Sky Bree
I did, yeah. Yeah. I don't know why. It's. It's such a strange feeling. That is the one thing in my life that I knew going into it. I was like, I'm going to kill it. Like, I just knew that it was like, my calling.
Interviewer 2
Like, yeah, it's kind of how we felt about podcasting. Really? No. And you haven't made any new OnlyFans content and have been basically recycling old material for over a year.
Sky Bree
Yes. So I was in actively, like, in, like, the only fans, like the porn scene and everything for about two years. And I have now been out of it for, like, close to two years.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. And you went straight to porn. You really bother with all the tasteful nudes or.
Sky Bree
Hell, no. No. That was my one thing well, when I first made my only fans, I think maybe for the first few days I had posted kind of, like, risque, like, lingerie pics or whatever, but I was like, this is just not enough for me. Like, I wanted to push myself to do more. And so, yeah, I started posting nudes, like, within a few days of making my only fans.
Interviewer 2
How has that been for business, though? Not making any new content? Does anybody care?
Sky Bree
Honestly, I make more money now not being in porn than I did being in it, I think.
Interviewer 1
Interesting. That makes sense.
Sky Bree
Yeah. I think it's because I was so successful while I was doing it and created such a strong fan base that now that I'm not in it, they still love being able to talk to me and, like, are willing just, like, pay to talk to me and, like, get to know that, like, the more.
Interviewer 2
Personal side of me, there's a parasocial element. And, yeah, you originally shot to fame because you went on Plug Talk.
Interviewer 1
Right.
Interviewer 2
And started doing porn, but now. And they talk about themselves as the first podcast to mix podcasting and porn.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Which is funny and cute.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Because you get interviewed at the first half, and then the second half you're getting.
Interviewer 2
But do you. Do you think the parasocial element is even more important than the having sex part?
Sky Bree
Like, in terms of what, like, making money and, like, being successful in the space? Definitely, yeah. And I think. I think that's part of the reason why I'm so successful is because I. When porn was almost like my. Like, that was like, my side hustle, my main hustle was being in YouTube videos, appearing on streams. Like, I really tried and did everything to get my personality out there. Like, I wanted people to really like me for me and, like, think I was funny and, like. Yeah, really, like, be like, oh, I have, like, a crush on this girl because she's likable. Not just, you know, like a lot of other porn stars that are just getting on camera. You know what I mean?
Interviewer 1
Well, I was gonna ask, with only fans, when you started, how much were you driven by, like, wanting to make money? Obviously, but then how much were you driven by wanting to, like, express a part of yourself that felt really authentic to you? Because you can make money, you can maximize money. Being really generic.
Sky Bree
Right?
Interviewer 1
Right.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Or, like, probably not maximize, but, you know, you can. Like, there's agencies that, like, our friend Mariah, she was complaining she signed a deal with an only fans agency, and they did grow her numbers, but then she felt like she couldn't express her personality, and it wasn't like, true to.
Interviewer 2
Her brand or whatever. Like, weird chat bots speaking on her behalf. That.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
And the, the fans actually caught wind of it pretty quickly and were like, what? This isn't you.
Sky Bree
Yeah. So I. Well, okay. So going into OnlyFans, definitely it was for the love of wanting just the game. Like, it wasn't even money motivated. Like, it was nice, like, being able to have that spare money. But I was still working at Target. Like, I. Like, if I was so motivated, I would have quit at Target. You know, it was just. I. I love doing it and I loved. It's. It's just so fun to me. I love, like being able to express myself in that way now. I mean, it is like, I'm not gonna lie, the money is great. And that definitely, like, is like, it's a great feeling, like when you have an amazing month and the numbers are super high. But I have always. I. I take issue honestly with like these big agencies that are running these girls accounts, a lot of them, because I all subscribe to girls just to kind of see like, what's going on. And it's ran in the most scammy way possible. And yes, these girls are making so much money, but it's so inauthentic. It's so. It's just for the money. And like, if I wanted to, oh, my God, I have agencies try to recruit me all the time, being like, we can guaranteed make you double what you're making now. But I just can't do it because I know that they will run my account, like, make me. It'll just be so inauthentic. I just can't.
Interviewer 1
And in your case, if you had signed a deal like that early on, like, yeah, they maybe would have increased your numbers, but they would have kept out.
Sky Bree
Yeah, exactly, exactly. And that's what I've always worried about. And it's the risk, the risk that I would take, like, potentially ruining my, like, connection with my fans. That is just not something that I'm willing to.
Interviewer 2
I mean, now you don't need it, but there are like countless other girls who kind of want to break through in the industry and they really have to weigh that decision. I have a question about that because I think we're living through, like an inversion of the traditional model, where maybe you were like an aspiring actress or model or singer or whatever, you moved to la, your career didn't really take off, you ended up doing porn. Now you can start off by doing porn, like, speedrun that process, retire early and you know the rest is history. But do you see that as like an overall net positive or do many of the same downsides apply?
Sky Bree
I think that there are, I mean that is the trend that a lot of people are doing. I think that there are a lot of downsides to trying to do that and like get into porn to like make it fast money because there's so much that comes with it. Like there are, there are, there are so many positives, but there are a lot of negatives. Like I'm, I'm very honest with that. I think a lot of girls in the industry are. They don't ever talk about the downsides and like the negative that aspects that come with it. Like I think people are scared to talk about that because they're scared it's gonna up their money or their relationship with their fans or whatnot.
Interviewer 1
I don't want to bum people.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 2
What are the biggest downsides sides in your opinion?
Sky Bree
I would say how it affects the relationships with people in your life. Definitely. I've lost friends, I've had family cut me off. I've had relationships not work out. Like my most recent relationship, I would say if I were to like really zoom out and look in like, yeah, there were a lot of problems. But I think overall like it was probably my past and porn that was, you know, why the relationship ended. So I think, yeah, I worry about the people that are like trying to speed run the whole only fans just to get rich quick. But then they like didn't expect all the like the shitty stuff that might come with it.
Interviewer 2
Well, how, how do relationships work in your industry? Like when you have a boyfriend, what does that mean? Like, does that mean that you have an open relationship or are only you allowed to see other people because it's for work?
Sky Bree
Right.
Interviewer 1
Well, I would imagine if you're also not making new content, then yeah, that makes it easier.
Sky Bree
So when I was actively like shooting porn, I was not in a relationship. I personally could not be in a relationship with someone while also like having sex with other people. I know there are people that can. I just personally can't. So yeah, when I was actively in porn, I chose not to be in any sort of relationship. Like that wasn't even something like on my mind. And then it was when I stepped away from porn. That's when then I like opened up to like being in a relationship. And I did get in like a pretty long term relationship.
Interviewer 2
So do you miss doing porn?
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Why did you stop making content because you want to have a relationship Yeah, I think so.
Sky Bree
I think that was definitely.
Interviewer 1
And you don't need to.
Sky Bree
Yeah. I think a big thing. Yeah. Was like, I didn't need to anymore. And I also. I think I started to in the. In the beginning. It was fun and it was excited, but I. Exciting. But I think I got to a point where I kind of started almost, like, dreading scenes. Like, I'm like, on my way to a shoot and I'm like, I don't really, like, want to be doing this right now. And so. And I think, like. Yeah. When you're. My heart started not being in it as much. I think that was a sign for me to step away. But I do say, yeah, I do miss it sometimes. Definitely. I feel like that was. I don't know if my purpose is, like, the right way to put it, but that definitely gave me a sense of, like, a purpose because I was doing something that I felt so good and confident doing, and it made other people happy. But I think I just, like, needed to take a break.
Interviewer 2
You're calling.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
Do you think you have a different. Different, higher calling?
Sky Bree
I think I do, but I just haven't found. Figured it out yet. I feel like I'm close.
Interviewer 1
Maybe because you wanted the money, obviously is great. But you wanted really to be famous.
Sky Bree
Honestly, I never sought out to be famous at all. I knew I was going to be really successful at it, and that was exciting. But I really. Actually.
Interviewer 1
The fame wasn't part of it.
Sky Bree
I don't like being famous at all. I don't like calling myself famous because, like, I feel like Internet fame is a lot different than, like, I'm not like an A list celebrity.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. But we're famous.
Interviewer 2
We're Internet famous, you know? You know what I mean? You feel like it's a little bit.
Sky Bree
Different than being like a. You know.
Interviewer 1
But it does suck because you don't get. It's not the same model of fame where, like, you get to be kind of untouchable.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Or private.
Interviewer 1
Your fame is more, like, diffused. And it's like, online and it's. Yeah. It doesn't feel. I think maybe all fame feels bad on some level, right?
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Even if people want it. You, like, end up, you know. Yeah. Seeing that it has downsides.
Sky Bree
I think that's another reason, too, why I walked away from it, because I have really, really bad social anxiety. Like, absolutely terrible. I've touched on this a little bit before on, like, different platforms, but I grew up with no friends whatsoever. Like, I know people always Say that they were loners or whatever. I absolutely had no friends and I ate lunch in the bathroom. Like, I had severe, severe social anxiety my entire life. So, like, blowing up and, like, becoming Internet famous, that was like. Yeah, that was like. It was the total opposite of, like, like, how I was my entire life. So it was. It was really hard for me to handle. And I think that was another reason why I honestly had to step back.
Interviewer 1
So your ideal would have been, like, to thrive in onlyfans, which you loved in a way that was, like, divorced from your identity.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Or I just, like. I think the reason I, like, was so have such bad social anxiety growing up was because I wasn't confident in myself. And then I think, starting only fans, I found this. That was the first time in my life where I discovered, like, a true scent, like, confidence. Like, I felt confident. I knew what I would like. I was good at what I was doing. That was the first time in my life I got to experience, like, wow, this is what it feels like to be confident.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. Yeah. And I've. You've talked a lot about having social anxiety and how it's easier for you to, like, pose nude or have sex on camera than it is to, like, go to a party and talk to people. Why do you think that is? Like, I think a lot of us feel that way. Like, I obviously have not had sex on camera, but it's easier for me to, like, be sexual, for example, than it is to be social, which you would think would not. Like, that's kind of weird. And do you have, like, a theory for why that?
Interviewer 1
Why do you think you have. What do you think your social anxiety stemmed from?
Sky Bree
I think my social anxiety stems from my. I have a hard time starting conversations with people carrying on conversations. Like, when I meet someone, it's like, hey, Hi. How are you? Good. I like your address. And then I don't know what to say afterwards. Like, I never. I don't know how to carry on conversation very well. Out in the wild and with sex, it's so. To me, it's. It's like so second nature. It's animalistic. Like, my body, I just know how to move in and I don't have to talk. Like, I just, like, I'm doing something that real. Like, we were all made out of, like, from, like, it's, you know, it's something natural. So that's.
Interviewer 2
Why do you enjoy sex, like, still to this day?
Sky Bree
I do. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
And, like, I mean, I think it's, like, often, like, the Talking is a pretense for sex anyway. So it is like, especially with the opposite sex.
Sky Bree
I think. Well, okay, normally when I, like, leading up to sex, like with like. Okay, like, say I'm like going out with a guy, like, it's always like, I'm getting drinks, like I'm, you know, I'm like loosening up a little bit and then like we, you know, go have the sex or whatever. But. So that's why I guess I can carry on conversation like before the social lubricant. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
There's like a goal in mind. Do you feel like you have to be smart in this industry or is it mostly blind luck?
Sky Bree
I think you have to be really smart. Like, really, really smart. Especially nowadays with how competitive the industry is. Like the only fans industry, I mean, there's girls doing only fans that aren't even doing nudity that are making.
Interviewer 1
Right.
Sky Bree
$4 million a month and not. They're not even showing a nipple. Like, and that, that's, that takes in. You have to be smart to, to be able to make that much money and not show any nudity.
Interviewer 1
How do you do something like that?
Interviewer 2
It's asking for a friend.
Sky Bree
It's all in marketing and, and following all the different, like, trends and like tracking the trends and being able to stay on top of them. And yeah, it's all in that being smart with like, social media, which I feel like.
Interviewer 1
Which.
Sky Bree
Which is how I was.
Interviewer 1
Right. You, like, used clout.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, I worked. I think I, I credit it all. I've always, When I moved to la, I was always. Everyone that I met. I was always so nice to like and just tried to create like some sort of, like, friendship with them prior to, like, working with them and doing podcasts and like being in their streams and being in their YouTube videos. And I was just always so nice to people. And I think that's why everyone likes working with me and would try and invite me back to be in their YouTube videos. Because I was just always, like, so nice. I tried to have good energy.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, I think that that applies across, like, any industry. Yeah, you just have to be easy to work with.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yes. Yeah. And I, Yeah, I consider myself super easy to work with. Like, I'll never, like, I'm very easy going. Like, if you want me to do this, I'll do that. Like, I'm not going to be like, no, I don't want to do that.
Interviewer 2
Like, is there anything you won't do?
Sky Bree
Or like, when it came to, like doing porn and stuff. Anal.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
That's the only thing I did just because, like, I've done it with, like, boyfriends in the past, but it just doesn't, you know, it hurts. Yeah. Yeah, sure does. I mean it. Like, I've had it feel good before, like, with, like, partners in the past, but I'm like, I don't know. Like, I don't really. Because everyone in porn has, like, huge dicks, and I'm like, I don't really want that up my ass.
Interviewer 2
I was, like, researching Dread, thanks to you, because I was watching your old podcast appearances. And the one thing that people always say about him, yourself included, is that he's a really nice guy who's easy.
Sky Bree
To work with and so amazing to work with. One of the best people to work with. I. So I was really nervous going to shoot with him because I. So a lot of girls, before they work with him, they, like, prep by using, like, really big dildos, like, and just, like, put it in them, side them and, like, let it sit there. You just, like, stretch it out. I didn't do any of that. I was like, I'm just, like, raw dogging this.
Interviewer 1
We.
Sky Bree
I'll never forget. Like, we started on the couch, like, before the cameras were even rolling. And he was like, let's make sure it actually fits inside of you before we start. Because, like, super wide.
Interviewer 2
It's not just long.
Interviewer 1
Like, do we have.
Interviewer 2
I think it's 13 in.
Interviewer 1
It is, like, show me. Maybe.
Sky Bree
I'd say it's definitely. It's probably the size of that water bottle, like, thickness too. Like, you can't put your mouth around it whatsoever. Like, what's making a horrified face? Like, you can't even get your mouth past the tip. Yeah, like, that's how.
Interviewer 2
Well, they asked a question about that because I watched a bunch of videos of, like, Dread having sex with girls. And they start off with the blow job, and the girls can only fit, like, the tip in their mouths. Is that real or are they instructing them to, oh, no, you can't.
Sky Bree
No, there's no way you can. I actually asked him, I said, is there anyone that's ever been able to deep throat your dick? And he said, there was only ever one. And I think that girl must have, like, a deformation or something of her jaw.
Interviewer 2
Like she unhinges it like a snake.
Sky Bree
But no, we had to, like, for five minutes before the scene was prepping, like, we had to, like, he had to literally push it in half an inch, stop, take a breather, another half inch. Like, it was a It was a lot just to even get it in, but he's so easy to work with. Then, like, you loosen up and it's comfortable. So it ended up going great.
Interviewer 1
What typically, like, I guess what is, like, guys. Guys in the industry. I know they're all different, but if you had to talk about them generally.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 1
You know, like, what would you say?
Sky Bree
I would say, overall, I had a lot of great experiences. They're all super friendly, excited to work with you, and I don't think they would just be excited to work with me. I think every girl that they work with, they're like, they have good energy. They're excited to be there. A lot of them are really good at communicating. Like, they can tell, like, if you're starting to get hurt or something. Like, they know to stop. I. Yeah, I really had, honestly, great experiences with all the men that I worked with in the industry. I can only count, like, maybe one that was bad.
Interviewer 1
But you've said you wouldn't want to be in a relationship with one.
Sky Bree
No, I would never be in a relationship with a porn star.
Interviewer 2
Why not?
Interviewer 1
Why not?
Sky Bree
And I know that sounds hypocritical, but I just could never date someone that does pornography.
Interviewer 1
What if they used to do porn and didn't anymore?
Sky Bree
I think I could. Yeah. I don't think that I could. I definitely could not be with someone who's actively doing porn because I just.
Interviewer 1
You're a Pisces.
Sky Bree
I'm a Pisces, yes. Me too. Yeah. I don't know. For. It's for the same reason that I, when I was in porn, wouldn't date anyone. Like, I. Just. For me, it's hard. Like, I can't have feelings for and love someone if I'm also getting by other people. Like, for me, like, sex is very, like, the best sex is very, like, emotionally, like, tied. But, yeah, I don't think I couldn't date a man that's actively in porn. I'm very jealous, so I just could never.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And also, like, I want that just for me. You know what I mean? Like, don't want to share it.
Interviewer 2
Do you run into problems with guys who are into you and then don't want to date you because they find out about your past and your career? Or is that not a thing anymore?
Interviewer 1
Any.
Sky Bree
Any man that talks to me, they know what I do right off the bat. More of the issue is more the mo. The main issue is I'll start talking to a guy, he knows what I do, and he acts chill about it. In the beginning, but then once, like, the feelings, like, really start to develop, then they have an issue with it, and then they're like, like. I don't think I want to take this any further.
Interviewer 1
Well, it's like. Yeah. When you start dating someone, you know, you kind of get, like. You hear about their exes, and it, like, doesn't bother you, and it's all because you, like, are just getting to know them.
Sky Bree
Right, Right.
Interviewer 1
You're with someone for a year, and then you're like. And you're ex.
Sky Bree
Yes, yes, yes. That's exactly. That is exactly what it is.
Interviewer 1
Like, so I actually think it's disgusting that you were even with her.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. Yeah.
Sky Bree
And honestly, like, I. I don't even blame them. Like, I. I get. I could understand why it would be hard to, like, you know, access videos of your, you know, your partner getting on camera. Like, that is something hard to stomach.
Interviewer 1
Sure. And, yeah, being also famous sort of for it.
Sky Bree
Yes, yes.
Interviewer 1
And continuing to. Even not making new content, still kind of be in that space.
Sky Bree
Yeah. My. My ex, he's a pretty successful, like, YouTuber, and he. That was some. One of our issues. He just got dragged and torn apart like, all the time. He still does, like, to this day. We've been broken up for a while now, and just so many people, like, trying to, like, clown him and make fun of him for being with. With me. So, you know.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. That's kind of what happened with Adam, 22, and Lena the plug.
Interviewer 1
Right.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
People keep mocking him for being a. Or whatever, and they're married and have a kid now. Yeah, I don't.
Interviewer 1
Is that gonna bother you?
Sky Bree
No, not. I love cigarettes.
Interviewer 2
I don't have them with me right now. I can run out them. Yeah, I'll do that. I wouldn't mind.
Sky Bree
Do you have one for me as well?
Interviewer 2
Yeah, I was. I was. I was kind of.
Interviewer 1
We assumed you didn't smoke.
Interviewer 2
You look so healthy. Cool.
Sky Bree
You can take it.
Interviewer 1
You're good. Okay.
Sky Bree
I don't. I think I'm. I know there's a Taurus. I think. I think there's, like, a Taurus rising, and then I forget the other stuff. Yeah. All I know is I'm a Pisces, but I feel like a Pisces. Pisces from what. I know.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
You said you're a Pisces, too.
Interviewer 1
I'm February 19th.
Sky Bree
I'm February 21st.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Wow.
Sky Bree
So we're both, like, kind of right on the cusp, almost Aquarius.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. And I definitely feel like A Pisces.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Are you very sensitive? I'm the most sensitive person ever.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Romance. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Also very jealous.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yes. Oh my God. I wish.
Interviewer 1
I was kind of an exhibitionist.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And yeah, it sucks because, yeah, the Internet rips me to shreds because I talk about how I am a jealous type and whatnot and they're like, how could you be jealous? You did porn. Like, that doesn't even make sense. But I'm like, I can't help how I feel. Yeah. Thank you.
Interviewer 1
Thanks, Anna.
Interviewer 2
You're welcome. When I walked in there, they like, all shot up in horror because they thought there was a. Some like, horrible technical difficulty or something.
Interviewer 1
No, we're doing amazing.
Interviewer 2
No, let me just find a lighter, cuz I don't have that either. I don't have.
Interviewer 1
Does he have like a gas stove? What's Riley's sign?
Sky Bree
Riley, what are you again? Leo of cancer.
Interviewer 1
Oh, nice.
Sky Bree
I don't feel like a Leo, really. But then my moon is Aquarius, so it's like complete opposite.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, that seems compatible, obviously.
Sky Bree
We're so stupid.
Interviewer 2
Okay. Oh, this is yours. Cool.
Interviewer 1
Okay, I have a question that's like. Yeah, that's kind of like a generational thing. We're a little bit older than you.
Interviewer 2
Like a lot. Well, I am.
Interviewer 1
No, I'm like 8 years old. You're 26.
Sky Bree
26, yeah.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Okay. So the way like millennials. I'm 34. And the way like millennials used social media when it like started was so different from the way I feel like Zoomers use it. Like, not just in the way that it's monetized, but like, it was like, of course we're gonna set up a page, you know, and like, put all our information on it, right? And it's gonna be like, welcome to Dasha's page. And it's like everyone's just like participating in it and like making content, like for nothing. And then I feel like younger people kind of figured out how to make money from content and that really changed, like, the landscape of social media and the way that people use it, I guess. Do you have any thoughts about, like, the attention economy online as it, like someone who's been on the Internet probably your whole life, it's always just like, been there.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I mean, I think just the way the world is heading, like, everything now is online, so it would make sense to now be able to make money online in the ways that we do. Like, everything that was just becoming so AI Technology, chat, gbt, like, that's just.
Interviewer 2
The way that we're moving, are you worried about AI? I mean, I. It probably doesn't apply to you as much, but, like, for the next gen of girls coming in, like, I think.
Interviewer 1
Only fans is like a testament to how much men do want to jack off to real women.
Sky Bree
Yes.
Interviewer 1
Even they, like, you could make an amazing, super realistic looking AI.
Sky Bree
Oh, yeah. But it's getting crazy out here. Honestly. Actually, the other day.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
In my head I was like, you know what? What if I just, like, get back into porn? But it's not really me. Like, I just like AI at all. Like, how would I be able to trick people? I wouldn't actually do that, but I'm like, is that what people are gonna start to do?
Interviewer 2
Like, yeah, you could probably, like, seize the means of production or whatever. I mean. Yeah, people were always telling us, like, aren't you worried that people are gonna make, like, deep fakes of your voices? They can, like, replicate the podcast. And we're like, no, that's great. Because if we say something like bad and inflammatory, we'll just blame it on the AI.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, you, like, have to, like, desaturate or, like, oversaturated with information and then it doesn't matter.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
And we all come out the other end winners.
Sky Bree
I was actually just having a. A conversation with someone recently about this and, like, how far like, AI and all that is, like, going. And it's almost so ridiculous now that I feel like it's going to be like, people are gonna start to realize how, like, we can't trust anything anymore. And hopefully we'll not be fooled by, like, the ridiculous, like, deep fakes and stuff.
Interviewer 1
Like, like, old people are doomed. But the rest.
Sky Bree
Yeah, definitely. But like, yeah, for like, the younger, like, hopefully. Yeah, they're smarter.
Interviewer 1
They can develop, like, some literacy around it. I mean, another thing that I've noticed with young people is the discourse. Yeah. Was like, because I got a lot of negative attention online for having a high body count.
Sky Bree
What's your body count? Did you. Did you say it, like, actually what it was?
Interviewer 1
I said, like 70.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 1
Like on an episode of this show.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Probably. Give or take. Like, I was like, I don't remember. I suppose sex with, you know, a pretty, you know, high. Ish amount of people.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
And like, I don't even make pornographic content.
Sky Bree
Right.
Interviewer 1
But even just the fact that I have a easy sensuality and a complicated past got me so much hate from people online. And I was like, we didn't. I didn't know that. I was lowering my worth or, like, that people would feel that way. Yeah, no, because I don't even really feel that way.
Interviewer 2
But the.
Interviewer 1
I didn't foresee that.
Sky Bree
Right.
Interviewer 1
People would become so, like, like prudent about body counts. I was just like.
Interviewer 2
I think it's like one of those things that, like, your haters used to clown on you that they don't think about when it comes to their team. It's like doing drugs or smoking or anything else. And also, nobody in real life actually cares about this. It's only like an online phone.
Sky Bree
Definitely. Strictly on an online thing. Yeah. I've told men my body count, like, guys I've been seeing, and none of them need, like, ever really care.
Interviewer 2
What's your body count?
Sky Bree
It's like 60.
Interviewer 1
Okay.
Sky Bree
Yeah. So. And I guess if you take away, like, everyone. I did porn. Cuz like, for some reason I don't count porn as like a true. Like, like, if you take porn out.
Interviewer 1
Maybe it's like, what about counting porn?
Sky Bree
30. No, that's.
Interviewer 1
Oh, that's counting.
Sky Bree
That's counting porn. So without porn, it's like 30. Oh, I got a late start. I. So.
Interviewer 1
And you're young.
Sky Bree
I lost my virginity when I was 18.
Interviewer 1
Okay.
Sky Bree
And I actually had. So I had my first kiss and lost my virginity at the same time. Like, I hadn't even kissed a boy. I. I don't even think I had ever hugged a boy before in my life. What happened was I actually. Anxiety medication. And it, like, broke me out of my shell. Hell yeah, it broke me out of my shell. And I finally got the nerve to, like, you know, like, see what sex is about. And I, like, hooked up with this kid. He was like a grade older than me. He had. I was a senior in high school and he was like, just out of high school. And yeah, we, like, hooked up. And I, like, didn't tell him anything. Like, yeah, I'm losing virginity. Or like, I didn't even tell him, like, yeah, this is my first kiss. Like, yeah, I just, like, went fully in. Those anxiety meds, they really. They kicked in.
Interviewer 2
That's great advice for young people who are thinking about losing their virginity and are wondering whether they should announce it to a prospective partner who's maybe not a virgin. And my feeling is like, no, just go with it and see how far you can take it.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I don't think, like, you. Yeah, you don't need to overload it. Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, I remember I watched that. I forgot what podcast it was where you talked about, like, kissing Sucking dick.
Sky Bree
And having sex all at once. Like, I had never even hugged a man before.
Interviewer 1
Like, old were you when you first saw porn?
Sky Bree
Really young. Like, super, super young. I would say probably 12, because I had a Tumblr and that Tumblr porn was the best. And I don't even think it was videos.
Interviewer 2
It was the gifts.
Sky Bree
That was my introduction to porn. Yeah. So I. Probably around, like, 12.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Okay.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
That's older than I thought, honestly.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, probably 12.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. You've had. You've had the Internet your whole life.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Do you think zoomers are more prudish than, like, millennials and Gen X on.
Sky Bree
The whole is a zoomer the ones older than millennials?
Interviewer 1
No, no, they're.
Interviewer 2
They're like your gen.
Sky Bree
So I'm.
Interviewer 2
Wait, you're a zoomer?
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 2
More prudish or less experienced? Maybe not even. Maybe that's the wrong word.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I'd say. Yeah, I would say they are, like. They're more prudish about it now because now you, like, you're a hoe. Like, that's what I mean. You're a.304 is the term that they use now. 304 is, like, that's what, like, a prostitute is called. But now that's just a term people use for, like, a hoe. Like, you're a 304, right? Yeah.
Interviewer 1
I mean, yeah, there was, like, slut shaming before.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
But, like, yeah. Even, like, talking about things in terms of body count and, like, mark, like, value, a marketplace is very young. It feels like a very youthful development.
Sky Bree
Yeah, definitely.
Interviewer 1
Whereas, like, you could kind of be a. And it was fine. Well, it was.
Interviewer 2
It still, like, the sex positive era. And then I guess millennials introduced sex negativity or.
Sky Bree
Yeah. I think it's because we have all this, like, red pill. People that are, like, super, like, huge on social media now that, like, push that, like, narrative. Like, your girl, if your body counts over, like, two, you're a, like, over zero. Like, you know. You know, like, Andrew Tate and, like, those type of people. Like, they're definitely the ones, like, pushing this whole.
Interviewer 1
The manosphere. Yes.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
The toxic online manosphere. Would you say that's where a lot of your haters are?
Sky Bree
Definitely, yeah.
Interviewer 2
Do you have a sense for who your haters are and, like, what do they tell you? Like, it's. It's hard for me to imagine that you would have haters just because you don't really, like, make public statements or, like, political commentary.
Sky Bree
I think a lot of it comes from people are Upset that we have this platform now, only fans that, like, girls are joining and like, making crazy amounts of money. And I think that upsets people. It's like, literally easy. I think that's what it is. Yeah. Like, if we really think about it, like, they're. They're upset that girls have this platform that they're making more money than, like, any men really are out there making, like.
Interviewer 1
So true. And. Yeah. And the thing with haters is, like, they've heard of you and you haven't heard of them, and that pisses them off.
Sky Bree
Right? Yeah, definitely.
Interviewer 2
So you became a millionaire at 23, is that correct?
Sky Bree
I became a millionaire at 22 and then a multimillionaire at 23. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Incredible.
Interviewer 2
Congratulations. Yes.
Interviewer 1
Okay, you.
Interviewer 2
Are you, like, fiscally conservative? Do you invest your money?
Sky Bree
Yeah, all my money is invested. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Do you have crypto holdings?
Sky Bree
I do not have crypto. That is weird to me. And I don't. I. I don't. It just seems so, like. So, like, I know so many people that do crypto and they make crazy amounts of money, but something about it is, like, sketchy to me, and I'm like.
Interviewer 2
I don't know.
Sky Bree
Like, I just have my financial advisors put my money and stuff, like, smart.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. It's less speculative.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
That's kind of how men make money.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Yes. That is how.
Interviewer 2
Mine last night said there are like, only two career paths open for people. For women, it's only fans, and for men, it's like crypto 100.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah. Have you seen, like, all the video, like, the Tick Tock videos that the men make, like, about the whole crypto stuff? It's like a whole, like, little cult of them. Like, the crypto is like a little cult.
Interviewer 1
We're primarily active on Twitter. X.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
So I've kind of been on crypto Twitter.
Sky Bree
Oh, yeah. That's where it is, like. Yeah. There's a whole side of it over there.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. I. We made some coins, but it was. I'm not cut out.
Sky Bree
Have you. Have you guys made money off crypto? Like.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
You have?
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Do you think it is, like, worth it to do?
Interviewer 1
I think bitcoin is absolutely a good investment. Yeah, I have definitely. I would definitely get that.
Sky Bree
See, the reason I think I'm hesitant is because I know nothing about it. And if, like, since I didn't come from money, I'm very like. Like, I don't like taking, like, crazy risks. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Honestly don't know anything about it. And I would not take my financial.
Interviewer 2
Advisor, you Need a man to figure.
Interviewer 1
It out for you. Yeah, but men that I basically trust.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. Which you shouldn't trust any of them. But.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, enough men that seem that I've. That I trust have told me about bitcoin.
Sky Bree
No, I'm sure the money is crazy. I just don't. I don't understand it. So I don't trust putting my money in it. I'd rather go, like, a little bit of the safer route.
Interviewer 1
That's smart. Yeah. Yeah. One of my questions was, why do people hate you? But it's obvious that it's because they're jealous.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I think, too. There's also. I've been pretty obnoxious at times. Like. Like, I don't know. I think sometimes I can be a lot like, do you clap back at your haters? I don't know. Honestly, I actually had. Haven't had Tick Tock now for over a year because the hate is so bad over on Tick Tock. Like, the comments and stuff. It's. Yeah, I noticed the big trend now is negativity. Like, even people that are doing social media to go viral, they have controversial moments. Like, that's what they want. They want to, like, stir controversy, Controversy, and, like, get those hate comments. Because the hate comments, even though they're hate comments, pushing people to the drive. Yeah, Yeah.
Interviewer 1
I mean, that's so toxic.
Sky Bree
It is, it is. But that's just. That's just the direction that, like, everything's heading, like, online and in the creator space.
Interviewer 1
In the negative direction.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Like, it's all about, like. Like hate farming and rage baiting and stuff.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. I mean, we have experience with that.
Interviewer 2
We sure do. But we've also been obnoxious at times.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, primarily.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
We're mostly known for being obnoxious. That's why we have haters. What do you think of girls, like, who do the kind of, like, only fans to Christianity pivot? Like, I think her name's Nala. She was doing, like, a juego.
Sky Bree
I do. Yes. Yes. She has, like, bright red hair.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. She was, like, acting like a bimbo on one of those podcasts. And now she's like a cricket Christian.
Sky Bree
I find it interesting, honestly, like, if that's the route that she wants to go and that's what makes her feel happy, like, let her have it. Like, I don't think that's in my future, but, like, that's definitely a thing. Yeah. That. That pipeline to, like, the hyper religious.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. And you just are making this, like, content that's different, but it's still content.
Sky Bree
I think it's probably derived from shame that they feel as a result of like being a former like sex worker.
Interviewer 1
I would think if that was the case, they would stop making content.
Sky Bree
Does she still make content?
Interviewer 1
Yeah, she makes like. Basically it's like it still is pornography. It's just she's like wearing a button down shirt. Yeah, well, it's like more like she's still selling herself.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, it's more dishonest than pornography because you're, you know, using the Lord's name in vain or, or whatever.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Are you religious or spiritual at all?
Sky Bree
I am religious, yeah.
Interviewer 1
What religion?
Sky Bree
I'm Christian. I'm not like super Christian or anything, but like I pray to God and everything.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
You mentioned on some show I saw that your father was in a cult.
Sky Bree
Yes. So my, my mom's side of the family is not religious whatsoever. But my dad's side of the family is super, super religious. When my dad was growing up, they were like in. Yeah, like a, like a super. They were in a cult. Basically like crazy hyper religious. And so actually when I got into porn, they disowned me for, for years. And it's only been actually probably the last year or so that they've like kind of started talking to me a little bit again. But the relationship is still weird and it probably always will be.
Interviewer 1
But you still identify as a Christian?
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
But not any particular kind. No, just like Christ is the way the truth. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. That's true.
Interviewer 2
Who made the first move in terms of like reunifying the family? Did you reach out or did your dad?
Sky Bree
I mean, it's not like the relationship is not mended. Like I don't talk to them or anything. But like last summer I went out and I stopped over at their house. They were having like little like family reunion. I went and you know, said hi. And we just don't. They do not. Like we don't talk about what I do or anything like that. So it's not to the point where like I'm disowned like how I was before, but it's. I don't think the relationship will ever be what it was.
Interviewer 1
Right.
Interviewer 2
What does disowned mean in like contemporary terms? You just don't talk and they don't acknowledge.
Sky Bree
They just. Yeah, they just don't talk to me whatsoever. And like tell my dad and like I'm really close with my cousin. Like they tell that them how like disappointed and you know, how what I'm doing is Disgusting.
Interviewer 2
Do you want a family of your own?
Sky Bree
Eventually I do. Yeah. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Sorry I said they're broke, so they can't, like, disinherit you.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
And it doesn't matter because they're rich.
Sky Bree
I'm the one that won't put. I won't put them on my will.
Interviewer 1
Exactly. You've disowned them. You really think about it.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
Mia Khalifa is another example. She didn't do, like, a religious turn, but she, like, now her content is about, like, how she was exploited by the porn industry. And I see people doing girls. The girls do that as well. I guess it's all fine if they're getting the bag.
Sky Bree
I think Lana Rhodes is another one, too, that's pretty outspoken about her experiences in porn.
Interviewer 1
I mean, do you think I know that? Obviously there are a lot of bad experiences.
Sky Bree
Of course. Yeah. Yeah. And so that's why I'm not, like, I. I know a lot of the girls in the industry, like, hate on them for speaking out about their bad experiences, but I think they had bad experiences. Like, that's their story to tell. If that's, like, their feelings post experiencing those bad, you know, things. Like, if that's how they feel about it, that's how they feel about it. Like, I, you know, I'm not one of those people that's like. But you still got, like, you still made a bunch of money about it. Like, if they had a bad experience and, like, that's the truth. And, like, they. That's how they want to, like, speak about it. Like that. That's, you know, that's their.
Interviewer 2
Well, how do you feel about this narrative that women in porn are, like, uniquely exploited? Do you buy it entirely or, like.
Sky Bree
In what sense exploited?
Interviewer 2
Well, I don't know.
Interviewer 1
It's a very generic term when, like. Yeah. When you say bad experience, you mean, like. Or when someone says that they're talking about a situation which they felt exploited.
Interviewer 2
Disempowered, had no agency. Yeah. They were victims. Whatever.
Interviewer 1
And do you think OnlyFans has, like, empowered women?
Sky Bree
I think that Onlyfans is a lot safer than traditional porn. Like, like, the studio.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Route. Because Onlyfans, like, you're your own boss. You can choose who you want to pay, who you want to work with, and you are the one solely making the money. You're not, like, having to give money to, like, you know, like, you're not on.
Interviewer 1
Like, you're not getting a paycheck.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
From someone.
Sky Bree
Right, right.
Interviewer 1
Corrected you.
Sky Bree
So I think it has Given a lot of power to back to sex workers in that sense. Honestly, the only bad experience I've ever had in porn was during a professional scene. I've only ever done one professional scene and I had a terrible experience. So.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. Are you allowed to talk about that or.
Interviewer 1
And why did you do a professional scene?
Sky Bree
So this was right when I moved to la. I was like, that's when I blew up.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And I don't know, just all the big agencies were reaching out to me to work with them and I just, I don't know. Like, even as soon as I got there, the energy was weird. Like the makeup artist were kind of like a little bit rude to me. Like telling me how like bad my skin was and like telling me how like textured my skin was. And it was a girl girl scene. It was a girl girl scene. So I was just, I was working with a girl and the whole time, like we're doing the photo shoot, like, like post scene and the whole time they're like, oh my gosh, you look so good. But like only to the other girl, not to me. And so that like really made me feel strange. And then also like, like I've only ever in my life gotten one STD and it was on set.
Interviewer 2
Wow.
Sky Bree
Wow. And. Yeah, so, yeah, no, and that was a profession that was, that was the only time I've ever gone std. I got gonorrhea.
Interviewer 2
And it was.
Sky Bree
Yeah. On a professional set. So I, Yeah, I was like, you know what, I feel more comfortable.
Interviewer 2
I was told they had like stringent medical standards.
Sky Bree
They do, they do. So you have to show a fresh test before you do a scene. And a Fresh test lasts two weeks, but for STDs, it takes like a week, two weeks for it to even show up in your system. So even though I was shown in a fresh test, I, you know, still.
Interviewer 1
There's still high risk. Yeah, it seems.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
Word.
Interviewer 2
Well, I guess you can't really take all the risk out of porn.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
You have her.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
But it seems like OnlyFans is like a net positive in that regard.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, it just, it felt. It feels safer and just, you know.
Interviewer 2
Or like a net neutral in the sense that a lot of the pre existing, like emotional and mental health dynamics still apply in that industry because they have to. But it maybe hasn't gotten worse.
Interviewer 1
Like, do you think, what traits would you say a person should have to thrive on OnlyFans are in porn?
Sky Bree
What traits?
Interviewer 1
Like, besides a natural exhibitionism, like, see.
Sky Bree
The thing is There's. There's thousands of hot girls.
Interviewer 1
Exactly.
Sky Bree
That do onlyfans. I think there's thousands of girls that are better than looking than me that do porn that aren't as successful. I think a lot of it is to do well in this industry now, I think you have to have a personality. You can't be afraid to show it. You have to branch out to different platforms. Like, I've always really made it a priority to, like, get involved with streamers and YouTubers because, you know, then you can be in their videos and you're not having sex, but you get to, like, show off your personality and, you know, just be a cute girl, like, in the video. And so doing stuff like that, definitely. Like, being extroverted or just putting yourself out there.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Because there's some girls that. They just do porn. That's the all they do. Which some girls, that's what they prefer. Like, they don't want to put their personality. They want to keep that private, and that's power to them. But, like, if you really, really want to blow up, you have to, like, branch out to other platforms and really, like, make yourself a human. You know what I mean? Instead of just, like, someone that's. That's. You see getting on camera.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. You have to, like, I think, exploit the parasocial dynamic.
Interviewer 1
But then you have this ambivalent relationship with fame, but you feel like you had to cultivate it to succeed.
Sky Bree
Wait, wait, what did you say again?
Interviewer 1
Do you feel like you had to. You had to be famous sort of to be successful?
Sky Bree
Honestly, that wasn't the way I viewed it. What I really, truly had the most fun doing was working with creators on different platforms, like on YouTube streamers. Like, that was the most fun I had. I loved doing that stuff. It was so fun. And then doing that would just funnel people to my only fans because they'd be like, oh, who's this, like, hot girl in this YouTube video? Who's this hot girl on this, like, famous streamer that I watch? And they're like, oh, I'm gonna go look her up. They look me up, they find my only fans, and they're like, wow, she does porn. Like, let me buy these videos. Let me talk, like, chat with her.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Are you fully natty?
Sky Bree
I am, yes. Okay. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Because you're known for your big naturals.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Would you ever get any work done?
Sky Bree
No. Yeah, I don't even have. Like, there was one time a couple years ago, like, four years ago, I got lip filler, and it looked really Crazy. And I got it dissolved, so that's. That's the most I've done, so it's hard to resist. I don't have anything against it. I think I just, like. It scares me because, you know, a lot of people, like, get botched or you start getting work done and it's not enough and you start to, like. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Especially when you're so looking, like, looking at your image so much.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Really?
Sky Bree
Like, exactly. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
What kind of exercises do you do?
Sky Bree
I do Pilates. Pilates is my thing. Pilates and hiking.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
I. Sometimes I try and get in the gym, but it's just boring to me, honestly. Like, I love a good Pilates.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Well, you probably, like, live in the best place for that. I feel like if you're in New York, you have to go to the gym because there's nowhere.
Interviewer 1
There's an infrared Pilates studio. Tribeca.
Sky Bree
I got roped into getting Equinox membership. That, like, super insanely expensive gym. And I think I went for like a few weeks. And then I was like, I can't do this. I need. I'm a Pilates girl.
Interviewer 1
I have a trainer. You do that I work at the gym with and who I worked with at Equinox. And then I. He left Equinox and I got a gym in my building. So now.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Smart.
Interviewer 1
That's a nice way. I wouldn't be able to just go to the gym. Be like, lift up some.
Sky Bree
Right, right. No, I feel. I feel stupid when I'm gay. I. When I'm. The issue is I go to the gym and I feel so insecure because I'm like, am I doing this exercise right?
Interviewer 1
You're probably not.
Sky Bree
No, I know I'm not. And I. And it's like, is that person over there staring at me because they think I'm cute or are they staring at me because I'm totally doing terrible?
Interviewer 2
Probably both. Yeah. Guys always like to walk up to women at the gym to, like, correct their form, but really because they're cute.
Interviewer 1
Well, it's nice. It's really anti social for men to go to Pilates classes.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 1
It's pretty much frowned upon even though they're technically allowed to.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. Yeah.
Sky Bree
It's a great workout.
Interviewer 1
In terms of men. What do you want in, like, a partner?
Sky Bree
This is something I've been thinking about a lot lately because I feel like I'm. As soon as I turn 25, I really feel like my frontal lobe developed. I know everyone says that, but, like, I really felt the shift. And so once that shift happened, I'm like, I feel like I have to like, actually like, get serious about, like, who my future partner might be and like, what traits they might have. As far as type goes, I don't have a type really. Like, as far as looks, every man I've ever been with, they look totally different. I love a good personality. Someone that like, can carry a conversation. Funny. Yes, yes. Yeah. I also love like a simp. Like, I love a man that like, is like all about me, obsessed with me. Also something I've been thinking about recently too is I feel like I need a man that is on somewhat similar of like a. They can make like a decent amount of money, you know what I mean? Because a lot of my people I've been with in the past, like, they. I was like the sugar mama.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And I don't know, I think that just creates a weird power imbalance. So I think it would be nice to, you know, be able to go like 50, 50 on like a house with a guy, like, if he's able to, you know, do that or like stuff like that so he can't be like dead broke, but he doesn't have to be like crazy, crazy rich or anything.
Interviewer 1
Right. You get. Yeah, it's tough for men out there.
Sky Bree
Yes, it is. Yeah, it is.
Interviewer 1
Okay, so maybe like a guy in the crypto space.
Interviewer 2
Oh, God, no. They're awful.
Sky Bree
You see, I don't know. Well, I do know, like, older men. I. What?
Interviewer 1
Do you like older?
Sky Bree
I do not. No, the most I can do is like a couple years older than me, I think. So, like, why is that? I don't know. I think I just like, I'm attracted to like, men like close to my age, like, healthy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think I probably like a man around like, maybe like 30. That could be like a good age for me.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, definitely.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Is like our looks a big thing for you? Do you care about fitness or not?
Sky Bree
Yeah, he definitely has to be fit just because I value my health a lot. And so he definitely has to be in good shape. I mean, he doesn't have to have like 8 pack abs, but as long as he's like taking care of himself and like, you know, cares about his health and wellness, but.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, sounds attainable.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah, it does.
Interviewer 1
Do you.
Interviewer 2
Do you feel like since making a ton of money in the industry that you've been able to kind of get over your social anxiety and make friends and that sort of thing? Do you have a lot of Friends. Are you friends with other women in the industry?
Sky Bree
Yeah, I definitely do have a few friends in the industry. Overall, I still really only have like a few, like, like solid friends. And a lot of my friends are like my hometown friends. Like, like those are like my best friends, like, which sucks because, I mean, my, one of my hometown friends, she like, lives with me. But like, a lot of my best, best friends are still like, back in my hometown. I haven't really made any, like, super solid girl friendships living in la. Yeah, I definitely, I have like a few guy friends that I've made, but still my, my, my, my circle is very small and I don't think I want to have a large circle. I don't know. Yeah, when you have a lot of friends, so much drama comes with it and I don't like that it gives me anxiety.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, that's true.
Interviewer 2
But do you feel like you've been able to get over the social anxiety a little bit or are you still like, in your head? A lot of.
Sky Bree
I think I still have really bad social anxiety. I think I'm just better at faking that. I don't, you know what I mean? Like, I'm now able to put myself in a situation and act like I'm, you know, my anxiety isn't as bad, but it's still, definitely there for sure.
Interviewer 1
Are you still on anti anxiety medication?
Sky Bree
I mean, I take like a Xanax as needed. Yeah, that's it.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, same.
Sky Bree
I've, I've tried a bunch of different anti anxiety meds. They just don't work for me. They make me like, honestly worse.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Do you think porn addiction is real?
Sky Bree
Definitely. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Okay.
Sky Bree
For sure.
Interviewer 2
I'm on the fence about this, which is why I asked, but I think.
Sky Bree
Why? Why?
Interviewer 2
I think it's like a proxy for other things like depression or anxiety.
Sky Bree
Oh, that. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.
Interviewer 2
I don't think anybody is actually addicted to pornography as such. Like, they might be to like, drugs or alcohol, but I'm not Like, I don't really have like a theory figured out. It's just like a speculative thing. And I think, as Dasha pointed out, that it's different for people of different generations. Like, for zoomers, it is more real than it is for millennials, maybe because they are like digital natives.
Sky Bree
Right, right.
Interviewer 2
And they like, don't really know anything outside of the Internet.
Sky Bree
Yeah. And I mean, I think like, like I've known guys that are like, jerking off like ten times a day. Like, I feel like that might be a little Like a bit of a problem. Like if it starts to affect your day to day life, that's probably an issue. An issue. Yeah. But it definitely could be a symptom of like something bigger, like you said, like depression or something.
Interviewer 1
But in that way it still exists. Yeah. Even out. You know, alcoholism. Yeah. Is a symptom of something else.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Like it doesn't make the symptoms any less real.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. And there's definitely something to gooning that is its own kind of thing. I. I mean, I identify as a recovering pornography addict.
Sky Bree
So you think it's. It's a real thing.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, but it, like I was really depressed.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 1
Also, but I also, like couldn't go a day without watching porn.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. And couldn't get off without watching porn, basically. Yeah. And that, like, seems unhealthy.
Interviewer 2
Like you couldn't have sex normally.
Interviewer 1
No, I could have sex, but I couldn't. Like I wasn't gonna like masturbate, like not watching porno, but I was like compulsively masturbating, so I was watching porn all the time.
Interviewer 2
Yeah. But I guess if you say like, oh, this is symptomatic of like depression or anxiety, then you can say, well, then the depression and anxiety is symptomatic of something else deeper or whatever.
Interviewer 1
Like. Yeah, yeah. But it's. When I was like 24, I realized I'd been watching porn since I was 414 and basically like 10 years had gone by that I haven't gone a day without it.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
You know, but I didn't have to like go into recovery. Yeah. Just like improve my life and my relationship with God and.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Spiritual malady.
Sky Bree
Right.
Interviewer 1
I overcame.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
And I'm okay now. But I can see how people could totally. Yeah. Like goon.
Interviewer 2
Well. Well, I guess my next question is, like, what advice do you have for like other enterprising young women who might be thinking of going into your line of work? Would you recommend it?
Sky Bree
I would say I. Okay, well, I think it depends on what level they want to take it to. When I was doing it working at Target just for fun, it was nice making a little extra money. I think that is fine.
Interviewer 1
Like you would recommend that?
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah. As long as they're comfortable with it and. But my overall thing is, though, don't do it if it's purely money motivated, especially if it's porn. If you're doing only fans and like not doing like the porn side of it and you're doing just like the risque stuff, I think, you know, that's you, like, not as bad, but, like, once you start to, like, do porn and stuff, I think that's something that you should really think about because it will affect the rest of your life. It absolutely will. No matter what anyone wants to say about it, like, it will affect the rest of your life. So, you know, only get into it.
Interviewer 1
If you want to make porn.
Sky Bree
Yeah. If you want to give me and if you're passionate about it. I don't think you should get into it just purely for the money. I think you should have a passion for porn and, you know, making that type of content because otherwise you're. You're gonna hate it and you're gonna end up being one of the people that then, like, you know, come out, like, and just, like, absolutely hate it and, like, regret it. And, like.
Interviewer 1
Well, they say, yeah, if you do what you love, you won't work a day.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah. So no. Yeah. If you're gon into it, like, make sure it's something that you actually, you know, love and you're. And you're passionate for making that type of content. And also, you know, make sure you weigh all the risks and if those are risks that you're willing to take and, you know, get into it. But definitely think about it.
Interviewer 2
Do you have any regrets?
Sky Bree
I don't have any regrets now.
Interviewer 2
Cool. Good answer.
Interviewer 1
Do you think. I think it's very wise to advise people not to get into it for, like, economic purposes. But do you think if you had come from money, you would have done something else? I know it's hard. It's. Because your whole. Everything about you would be different and your whole life would be different, but if you had more of, like, a.
Sky Bree
Safety net, I think I would have done maybe something similar. Like, I love. I love looking back on all my content, and I love, like, I love myself nude. Like, I. I. So, yeah, like, I love it. I wouldn't. I think if I came for money, like, I still would be doing something that's pushing the line, like, something like, sexual in some sort of way.
Interviewer 1
But you never. Like, when you were younger, you never. Or like, before you started onlyfans, you didn't want to be, like, a porn star.
Sky Bree
No. You, like, saw an opportunity. I think if you asked me when I was younger, like, that would probably be the last thing I would have ever imagined myself doing.
Interviewer 1
What would you. What did you want to be when you were younger?
Sky Bree
When I was younger, I think I wanted to be an interior designer.
Interviewer 1
Nice.
Sky Bree
Yeah. That was my main thing. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Cool. You could probably do that now.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I probably could. I actually would love to go back to college. Well, not back. I. I didn't go to college, but I would like to go to college. Yeah, you could. Yeah.
Interviewer 1
You can afford it?
Sky Bree
Yeah, I could. I think that could be something that's. I could see myself doing that maybe in a few years.
Interviewer 1
Do you watch porn?
Sky Bree
I go through phases. Sometimes I'm. I haven't in a while, but sometimes I will.
Interviewer 2
Do you have any favorite.
Interviewer 1
What do you look for?
Sky Bree
Yeah, I don't have any favorite performers. I would not watch any porn that I like of someone I've worked with because for some reason, like, I don't know, it like, takes away, like, the fantasy of it. Like, it kind of makes it seem like, fake. Like, if I've worked with you before, like, I don't know.
Interviewer 2
Yeah, I had that experience because I did Asa Akira's podcast a couple of years back through Andrew, and like, I've. I've seen her porn and I watched some of it leading up to it, but it was weird to encounter a person who's work, like, like pornographic work you're familiar with, who's like, just like a totally nice and normal person.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
You want the, like, level of abstraction.
Sky Bree
Yes.
Interviewer 1
To be able to object.
Sky Bree
I also, like, I prefer amateur stuff. Like, I don't want to watch porn of someone that I know or like, is a famous porn star. To be honest. Like, I like very amateur. Like, that's like just like a random, like, girl or something.
Interviewer 1
That's cool.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Here's like, kind of a stupid question, but one that I've wondered about a lot. How do you suspend disbelief when you're doing a scene and you're not really attracted to the person, but you have to do it?
Sky Bree
For me, it was always, I loved mid scene knowing that it's gonna make my fans, like, turned on and they're gonna think it's hot. Like, that's what, like, got me off. Like, knowing that after we're done shooting this, I'm then gonna be able to push this out to my fans and they're gonna love it and they're gonna jerk off to it and, like, they're gonna think it' like other people watching my porn. Like, that's what makes me, like, feel good.
Interviewer 1
You're performing for your fans, you're not performing for the person you're having sex.
Interviewer 2
And what percentage of like, co stars would you say, like, you were attracted to versus not?
Sky Bree
I would say maybe like 50. 50? Yeah.
Interviewer 1
How do you make a decision like that because, like we said, one of the nice things with OnlyFans is that you do have the agency to decide who to work with. You're not just, like, paired up by some, like, producer.
Sky Bree
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
How do you. Having the agency to make those decisions, make them. Like, what is your criteria for.
Sky Bree
Well, honestly, I really just worked with whoever was like, big, like, because my, my fans would request for me to work with people, so that's really who I would work with. I wasn't really cherry picking people because, like, oh, I think he's hot. Like, I really wanted to work with who my fans wanted to see me work with. But yeah, I'd say, like, I was truly attracted to about like 50% of them. They were all great, like, great guys and everything, but just like, I don't know. For me, it's like when I'm with a guy, like, it's either just right off the bat, like, the energy and the way they talk to me, that's what decides if, you know, I'm attracted to them or not.
Interviewer 1
How would you describe your fans?
Sky Bree
My fans?
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Like, is there something about your fans that makes them distinct?
Sky Bree
I would say I have a bit of, like, I definitely have, like a cult following. Like, they love me. I. I do a lot of other things. Like, I, like, I do. I live stream, like on Twitch and stuff. And even just the fact that they're willing to like, follow me over to that platform and watch me talk about God knows what for eight hours. Like, just the fact that they're, you know, and I'll have like a sweatshirt on and my hair up in a bun. And just the fact that they're willing to, like, you know, listen to me talk about anything. Like, not sexual. Like, you know. Yeah, I think that they really enjoy me as a person. Not just like this, like, sex pot, you know, girl. Like, I think they, I think they see me as the, like a girl next door. Like, that's always. That's why I think I'm successful. I think that I seem just like a girl next door and they, and they like that.
Interviewer 2
But do you have a lot of female fans?
Sky Bree
I don't know if I would say I have a lot of female fans, but I definitely do have a lot of. I definitely do have female fans. For sure. I get, I get actually a lot of dms from girls saying, like, like, you're my favorite performer. Like, I think you're so hot. Like, you inspired me to start only fans. Like, I have a lot of that. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
Do you get, like, recognized on the street?
Sky Bree
I do all the time. Yeah. A lot of places. We. If I go to anywhere, like, really public, I have to do security. It gets, like, it, like, if we go out to, like, a club or like, a bar or something, definitely have to have security or.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, yeah.
Sky Bree
It's crazy in la, even, like, we were in. We were traveling Italy for a while recently, and like, even there, like, I have people, like, come up and ask for pictures and stuff. It's. It's all over the world. It's crazy.
Interviewer 2
Do you comply?
Sky Bree
Usually recently since I. So I took a break off of social media for a while, and since then, I've. I have been. I've been saying no to pictures a little bit more just because I'm trying to feel normal again. And a lot of times, like, if I'm just going about, like, my daily and going to the places I normally go to, I don't really want to, like, be taking pictures at, like, my grocery store, my coffee shop that I'm visiting every single day. You know what I mean? But if I'm going out, I kind of know, like, okay, people are gonna ask me for pictures. Like, I'm going out. Like, I expect it. So I'm very welcoming of it. It's. But if it's just, like, me trying to run errands and going about my day, I will say no to pictures usually.
Interviewer 1
I got asked for a photo once from a fan when I was, like, crying.
Interviewer 2
I was, like, having a bad day.
Sky Bree
That happened to me one time. Oh, my gosh. I don't remember.
Interviewer 1
Yeah, I said, I'm sorry. I gave her my autograph.
Interviewer 2
I made a horrible mistake. Some guy at my gym asked for a photo, and then they. It was, like, unflattering, and they posted it on the subreddit.
Sky Bree
Isn't that the worst? Oh, my God. People will take pictures, like, ask me for a picture, and then, like, 20 minutes later, they'll post it, like, on their Instagram story and tag me, and I'm like, I look disgusting now.
Interviewer 2
Please take that found.
Sky Bree
I'm gonna get your Instagram deleted. Just.
Interviewer 2
Just kidding. This is libel. Yeah. Oh, another thing I wanted to ask you about on that note, because I watched a clip of you talking about a bad experience you had, like, on a music video shoot where a guy, like, pulled his dick out and tried to get.
Sky Bree
Yeah, I will, like, I will talk about this story so openly. His name's Shy Glizzy.
Interviewer 1
Okay?
Sky Bree
He. Do you know the song In Love with a White Girl, she's so. Oh my God. This is like, like what. What year did that song come out?
Interviewer 2
I don't know.
Sky Bree
Do you know when that song came out, Riley? Like 2014 or something. That is a massive, massive song. Like it's. It's so viral. So. But he never did a music video for it, right? So a few years later, a few years ago, he reached out to me to be in the music video for it. And I'm like, this is such a huge song. Like, this was like the song played at parties and stuff. So I was like, of course. Like, I'll do it. And I asked to be paid for it just for the principal, like if I'm gonna be there all day, like working. Yeah, yeah. And so I. I don't remember what exactly I asked him for. It wasn't even anything crazy. I think I asked for like maybe like 7k or something like that. And he was like, like, come on. Like, don't bust my balls. Like like 3K. And I'm like, okay. Like, because I was mostly doing it just for promo to be in this like huge song, this music video. And yeah, we were there and it was towards like the end of the shoot. He had like all of his friends kind of just like there. Because he's like a rapper guy. Like, you know how like rappers have like, they're like the entourage. Yeah. That they bring. And they all kind of like, kind of like cornered me a little bit, like in the like kitchen and were like trying to get me to like take this pill. And I was like, I was in Joshua Tree the morning of, had to drive like four hours to la. Like I'm exhausted, I want to go home and sleep. Was just being so annoying about it. So I was like, fine, like I'll take this pill. And I know how insane that.
Interviewer 1
No, no, I get it.
Sky Bree
I was young. Like now that I'm more mature, I never would have done that ever. But I don't even know what it was. I think it was like Molly or something. And I started to feel so weird. Like just cuz I don't like do like drugs like that. Like I just started to feel so strange. And it was towards the end of the shoot we shot like then the last scene and then we were kind of wrapping up and feeling. Feeling like really weird. And I had my own room, like my own like changing room or whatever. And he comes in and he like grabs me and kind of like pulls me to the bed and he pulls out his dick and he's like Suck it. And I say no. Yeah, like, and keep in mind I'm in this like kind of like slightly altered state.
Interviewer 1
I'm like, like scary.
Sky Bree
And I'm like, no. And he's like, if you don't suck it, you're not getting paid. And I said, then I'm not getting paid. And so I immediately then grabbed my stuff, I went downstairs, I grabbed the, like who was producing the music video and everything. And he was like, yeah, that's not cool. Like, let's get her out of here right now. So they, everyone, like all the people there, like helping assist like with the music video, took me out to the car. They got me off like set right away and everything. Did you get paid? No, no. But like, but him.
Interviewer 2
The craziest thing about that story, I was like trying to do the math and I was like, wait a second. It took him like 10 years, like a decade to make a music video.
Sky Bree
Right, right Song, right.
Interviewer 1
Crazy.
Sky Bree
Yeah. It's insane. Yeah, there's. I mean, yeah, that was up. And the, the saddest part about it though is I'm fortunate enough where I didn't need that money. Like.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
But I think about other girls that could have been in that situation that they would have, you know, that, that maybe they needed that money that then would have like had to have done that be because they needed the money. And I. And that's. That is why, honestly why I even shared the story because I think that is the most up part even.
Interviewer 1
Well, here's a question for you. Do you think consider yourself to be a people pleaser?
Sky Bree
I definitely am. Yeah. I have a hard time like saying no. I'm very non confrontational. Like if someone does something bad, take a pill. Yeah, I definitely am. I definitely am now. It's been a few years. I think I would like to think I'm a little, you know, it's something you're.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
It takes a long time to figure this out, but actually people respect you more if you just say no up front.
Sky Bree
Yeah. And that was only like a year of me living in la. Like I was still, like, I didn't, I didn't have the confidence that I do now to say no to things that I'm comfortable with.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
And.
Interviewer 2
But yeah, well, yeah, the reason I bring all this up is because you mentioned at the time that you were not a fan of like correct quote, cancel culture.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. Like you didn't wage a campaign against this guy.
Sky Bree
No, I, I spoke about him on a podcast and that was, that was. It like, it's like, I didn't talk about it after that or anything. And I think I actually got a lot. A lot of hate for it.
Interviewer 2
Right.
Sky Bree
People saying I'm lying and saying things like, you know, you're a porn star, like. Like, duh, he's gonna expect you to do that. And so that. That honestly really did hurt me, like, really, really, really badly. Like, that was probably honestly one of the worst things that's happened to me.
Interviewer 1
Like, is the backlash.
Sky Bree
The backlash from that. Because it wasn't. I didn't want it to be this whole me trying to cancel him. I really did speak up about it because it was, like, not okay. And that's something that happens a lot in, like, that type of industry.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
So I just wanted to, I guess, like, bring awareness to it in a way and, you know, and. And say that he was that kind of person. So hopefully no other girl ever works with him again or whatever. It turned. There was a big turning point, like.
Interviewer 1
Demanding he be dropped from his label. Repercussions, even. You were just, like, speaking honestly, but.
Interviewer 2
Then proceed at your own discretion. But I was surprised at, like, because ordinarily, I'm not really a fan of people, like, speaking out about traumatic experiences because usually, like, they want something for themselves and they're not really the victim that they make themselves out to be. But I was, like, surprised. Like, I thought that you handled it in a very, like, classy and, like, forthright way. Like, how do you feel about, like, what is the proper protocol for dealing with that kind of stuff? Because you don't want to stay silent. But on the other hand, you don't.
Interviewer 1
You don't want to be.
Interviewer 2
Run anybody off the road or, like.
Interviewer 1
Make yourself into some victim and then have that be, like, your identity.
Sky Bree
Well, honestly, that's the only time that I've ever, like, called someone out on something like that. That.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Sky Bree
I really. I don't know what the proper protocol is nowadays, because it's, like, a lot of times when girls do speak out about experiences like that. Like, it's a lot of people, especially with, like, how, like, online culture is now. Like, everyone's like, she's lying, and stuff like that. So it's like, I don't. I don't know the proper way to go about it, because I remember how hurt I was, like, reading the hate online.
Interviewer 1
Regret speaking about it.
Sky Bree
I don't.
Interviewer 1
Or knowing that how much hate you would get. Would you?
Sky Bree
So once I start. After I spoke out about it and I started receiving a lot of hate. I did regret it. I felt like maybe I should have just kept this to myself. Whatever. But actually, everything changed because he went on academics. You know who that is?
Interviewer 1
Vaguely.
Sky Bree
Yeah. He's like a big, like, like hip hop media, like, person. He has his. I did a podcast with him and he asked him, like, so this model only sky Bri, like, called you out for whatever his. You could tell he was lying about it so bad. His whole demeanor and his, like, the way he was sitting changed. All of the comments were like, he did that. You can tell that he did that. You can tell this man is lying. So everything shifted because he just. His body language is totally like, this man. What? He. He did that to her. Like, everyone suddenly believed me. So then it was a total, like, flip. Then everyone was on my side, which that was definitely.
Interviewer 1
That must have felt really good.
Sky Bree
That did feel indicated.
Interviewer 1
That did.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah, it did. But you know, it's still like, it's a shitty situation.
Interviewer 1
No, it sucks to tell the truth and people feel punished.
Sky Bree
Yeah. Yeah. It definitely, though. It's like, after that, it's like, it though. Like, what if something else were to happen? Like, do I just say silent? Because it's like the hate was. I understand now why people do, like, you know, stay silent. Because the hate was bad. Like, everyone calling me a liar.
Interviewer 1
Yeah. You have to have like a whole. You have to kind of be, like, cynical and already have the PR in place to, like, frame it in a way that, like. But that's.
Interviewer 2
I think that's the worst feeling. Like, they can call you pretty much anything, like, ugly, retarded, whatever. But when they call you a liar.
Sky Bree
Right, right. Exactly.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Sky Bree
Like, call me. Yeah, call me ugly. My forehead is huge. Say whatever you want to say to me. But, like, I was not lying, so it hurt really bad for people to say I was lying. Especially about something so serious. Like, yeah, I would. That's just ridiculous.
Interviewer 1
Or that you would be the kind of person who would lie about something.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah. Especially also, like, not to be rude, but, like, he's like a one hit wonder. Like, why would I make a lie about a man that had a song come out, like, 14 years ago? Like, that doesn't even make sense.
Interviewer 1
Well, I'm glad you were vindicated.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
We've done like an hour and 20.
Interviewer 2
That's fine.
Interviewer 1
Yeah.
Interviewer 2
We can wrap it up.
Interviewer 1
Oh, I guess. Yeah. I want to ask you, like, what you do. Well, for fun, but also for health and beauty.
Sky Bree
Okay.
Interviewer 1
Besides Pilates, like, what do you do to be Healthy. You mentioned you're trying to feel normal.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah. Honestly, prioritizing, like just doing things that make my body feel good, like Pilates and hiking is a big one for me. I stopped drinking as much. I used to drink all the time. Like I would go out all the time and drink and take it too far. I barely drink now. And that has been a game changer for me because the hangovers I would get with like, like send me into a spiral for like days and days afterwards. So definitely cutting out alcohol has been a big one for me. Everybody says no, no, I, I mean I wish I was one of those people that like could enjoy drinking and like going out, but just the hangovers I get are so wicked. Like it has me contemplating life. And also taking a step back from social media was like, like, like saved me. Like that was, that was really big. I'm trying to ease myself back into it, but just at a way at a pace that I feel comfortable with. I also went to a mental health, a mental health wellness retreat for 30 days.
Interviewer 1
Wow.
Sky Bree
In Tennessee, they take away your phone. They did, yeah.
Interviewer 2
Okay.
Sky Bree
Yeah. It was a really, really, it was a great experience. Experience though. It was the best thing I ever did.
Interviewer 1
What was it? The structure of it? Like, like what was the therapeutic. Was it silent or.
Sky Bree
So it was basically I was recommended to it by actually like another pretty big like social media person because he had went prior and it basically it's like this really big, beautiful house. Everyone there has like your own private rooms and then like the day to day schedule is you have like therapy and then you have like individual therapy and then like a smaller group therapy. You do a lot of. It's. It's beautiful. It's like in the wood. So you do a lot of connecting with nature. But that was like, that was amazing for me to dedicate 30 days to just working on my mental health like.
Interviewer 1
That and therapy every day and no phone.
Sky Bree
Yes. Yeah.
Interviewer 2
How did it work if you needed to get in touch with someone or somebody needed to get in touch with you?
Sky Bree
So you were able to. They had like, like, like house phones that you were able to use between the times like 6 to 9 and you can only make like 15 minute calls. So I would just like call like, I don't know, like a friend or my mom.
Interviewer 1
And how many people were there?
Sky Bree
There were like 20 other people.
Interviewer 1
Okay. Yeah, that sounds nice.
Sky Bree
Yeah, it was great.
Interviewer 1
Why do you think social media was so bad for you?
Sky Bree
I think I've noticed the trend is with all creators like, even, like, you know, the tick tockers, youtubers, even like OnlyFans girls, like, people like me. I think the trend now is you're so loved at first, but then eventually people will turn on you and want to bring you down. And I'm the, maybe the most sensitive person ever. Like, like, hey, hate really, really gets to me and I think I kind of just, it started to, like, I would get a lot of hate and it, it really started to get to me and affect my mental. And so I, it was actually my friends that were like, you need help. Like, you're obsessing too much over this hate. Like, you need to go away for a little bit. So that was great. An amazing detox. I recommend it to anyone, like, if they're able to plug it. I, I don't want the location, but.
Interviewer 1
Like, something like that.
Sky Bree
Yeah, yeah. So, like, yeah, just any, if, if anyone, if you have access to any mental health care, like even seeing a therapist or anything like that, I. Doing that changed my life.
Interviewer 1
That's good counsel. Oh, yeah, yeah. Do you have any other questions? Oh, one of my questions actually is what do you think drives people to hate?
Sky Bree
I think just like entertainment. I think they think it's like, funny.
Interviewer 1
They just don't care that there's another, like a human being.
Interviewer 2
Like, you know, it doesn't occur to them that you are. There's another human being that might be sensitive because they, you're like an avatar and you're rich and famous, so they think that you're a piece of probably and don't feel the same emotions.
Sky Bree
I don't know the exact reason, but I, I think hate is at an all time high on social media. Like, do you guys, are you guys aware of all the Reddits?
Interviewer 2
We have a subreddit for our podcast.
Sky Bree
You do?
Interviewer 2
That has like hundreds of thousands of members and they all hate us. Really?
Interviewer 1
It's like a snark sub.
Sky Bree
Yes, of course. Oh, I, I, I browse the snarks.
Interviewer 1
We're very, I'm not gonna lie, we're very aware. Yeah, yeah.
Sky Bree
So I, I think it's stuff like that that it's, it's created these like, communities of people that they can all band together and, you know, pick people apart. And I don't know what it is. I think, I don't know, I have, there's other, there's a lot of creators touching on this recently that hate is at an all time high. And I, I don't know what exactly it is, but you know, even I browse those Reddit sometimes. I never post but like sometimes I'll browse them and like for sure. Yeah, it's. Yeah, yeah.
Interviewer 2
Honestly what helped me was like not ever looking at that, not reading.
Sky Bree
So you're, you don't go on it at all?
Interviewer 2
Yeah, I used to post on there because I'm like I'm one of the people. I just want to get to know my fans and like not unhealthy. Yeah, we'll like ruin your mood and crush your skin.
Sky Bree
It will. Yeah. Yeah. You have to stay away from that stuff. That's, that's been definitely. I don't read comments anymore. I just can't. You, you have to protect your piece, especially being in this creator space. Like the hate just comes with it. It.
Interviewer 2
Yeah.
Interviewer 1
So true. Okay, well, thanks so much.
Sky Bree
Thank you for having me.
Interviewer 2
This is fun.

This episode of Red Scare features an in-depth, candid conversation with Sky Bri—a former OnlyFans star and cultural personality, who rose to internet fame in her early 20s. Hosts Anna Khachiyan and Dasha Nekrasova (Interviewer 1 and 2) explore Sky’s journey in digital sex work, the dynamics of internet fame, social stigma, relationships, mental health, and navigating haters in the online economy.
Throughout, Sky offers thoughtful and unvarnished insights into the realities of influencer culture and the adult content industry, pushing back on simple narratives and reflecting on the complexities of money, agency, and vulnerability.
[02:12–05:08]
Sky started on OnlyFans during the COVID pandemic while working at Target.
Her career took off after appearing on the No Jumper podcast.
“I spent the last of my money on a plane ticket to LA. I quit my job at Target...And I just blew up, like, right away.” (Sky Bri, 04:17–05:10)
[05:40–07:50]
Sky was active in explicit content and quickly transitioned to pushing her personal brand/personality through streams and social media rather than new porn content.
“I think that's part of the reason why I'm so successful...I really wanted people to like me for me...be like 'I have a crush on this girl because she's likable.’” (Sky, 07:27)
Disdain for agency-automated, inauthentic content:
"...It's ran in the most scammy way possible. And yes, these girls are making so much money, but it's so inauthentic...I just can't do it." (09:00–09:45)
[10:41–13:41]
The shift: Young women now start in sex work for fast money, rather than as a last-resort career.
Sky warns of severe downsides:
Relationships: Sky won’t date while doing porn, can’t handle open relationships, and values emotional exclusivity.
“I personally could not be in a relationship with someone while also, like, having sex with other people...So yeah, when I was actively in porn, I chose not to be in any sort of relationship.” (Sky, 13:00–13:41)
[15:16–18:04]
Sky finds internet fame difficult due to lifelong social anxiety:
"I grew up with no friends whatsoever...I ate lunch in the bathroom...So, like, blowing up and becoming Internet famous... It was really hard for me to handle." (Sky, 16:01–16:41)
She discusses discovering confidence through OnlyFans vs. social situations:
"It's easier for me to, like, pose nude or have sex on camera than it is to, like, go to a party and talk to people." (17:20–17:59)
[19:40–21:17]
It takes smarts and marketing savvy, not just looks, to build a sustainable fan base and income:
"There's girls doing OnlyFans that aren't even doing nudity that are making $4 million a month and...that takes...you have to be smart to be able to make that much money and not show any nudity." (Sky, 19:54–20:07)
Sky credits personal connections and being "easy to work with" for her ongoing opportunities and success.
She drew a line at performing certain acts ("Anal, that's the only thing I didn't do...I don't really want that up my ass.").
[25:42–28:50]
She’s open about jealousy and exclusivity in relationships:
“I’m very jealous, so I just could never [date a man in porn].” (25:29–26:18)
Discusses the hypocrisy of being shamed for both doing porn and being jealous:
"The Internet rips me to shreds... they're like, 'how could you be jealous? You did porn.' Like, that doesn't even make sense." (28:36–28:50)
[30:01–38:49]
Differences between Millennial and Zoomer attitudes toward content and sex:
“Now you’re a ‘304’...that’s what like, a prostitute is called. But now that's just a term people use for like, a hoe.” (Sky, 37:30)
The hosts recount their own negative experiences with "body count" discourse online.
[39:03–43:05, 88:48–90:49]
Sky believes much online hate comes from envy, especially about women’s lucrative opportunities on platforms like OnlyFans:
"They're upset that girls have this platform...making more money than, like, any men out there." (Sky, 39:03–39:32)
Both guest and hosts speak honestly about hate-driven virality:
"The trend now is negativity...controversial moments...they want to, like, stir controversy and get those hate comments. Because even though they're hate comments, [they're] pushing people to the drive." (Sky, 42:03–42:49)
The toxicity of snark subreddits and the emotional labor of being constantly judged:
"I think hate is at an all-time high on social media...it started to...affect my mental. It was actually my friends that were like, you need help." (Sky, 87:30–88:48)
[85:56–88:48]
Sky details attending a 30-day mental health/wellness retreat with intensive therapy and no phone access, which was transformative for her wellbeing.
She recounts the importance of prioritizing health, cutting back on alcohol, and taking breaks from social media for mental clarity.
[47:08–54:33]
Sky distinguishes between studio porn and OnlyFans, calling the latter far safer and more empowering:
“OnlyFans is a lot safer than traditional porn...you're your own boss. You can choose who you want to work with...the only bad experience I've ever had in porn was during a professional scene.” (Sky, 48:55–49:44)
She describes her one negative professional studio experience: unkind treatment and contracting an STD (gonorrhea).
Discusses her approach to collaborating with others—choosing based on fan requests, not personal attraction.
[64:05–66:18]
“You’re gonna hate it and you’ll end up being one of the people that just hate it and regret it.” (65:30–65:55)
Confidence and Vulnerability
“That was the first time in my life where I discovered, like, a true...confidence.” (Sky, 16:49)
The Limits of Fame
"I don't like being famous at all...Internet fame is a lot different...I'm not like an A-list celebrity." (Sky, 15:19)
Relationship Boundaries
"For me...the best sex is very emotionally tied." (Sky, 25:01–25:29)
On Hate and Jealousy
"Call me ugly, my forehead is huge, say whatever you want...but I was not lying, so it hurt really bad for people to say I was lying. Especially about something so serious." (Sky, 83:46)
On Surviving the Internet
“You have to protect your peace...I don’t read comments anymore. I just can’t.” (90:35)
This episode provides a nuanced, honest look at the mechanics and personal costs of online sex work, influencer economy, and modern notoriety—through the lens of someone who navigated its heights and pitfalls with uncommon self-awareness.
