“People find that hard to believe that I was never really paid very much money for any of the jobs I’ve done,” Sopranos<\/em> actress Drea de Matteo said about her decision to post racy content on subscription site OnlyFans. “People think I’m f***ing made of gold, and I’m not. I’ve worked job to job.”<\/p>\n

OnlyFans started in 2016 and quickly gained notoriety as a place people could view NSFW content. Celebrities who have embraced the platform include Denise Richards, Cardi B, Bella Thorne, Tyga and Chris Brown.<\/p>\n

De Matteo told Fox News Digital that her own decision to join sprang from a production slowdown during the pandemic, what she says is a loss of work due to her vaccine stance and, above all else, a desire to take care of her kids.<\/p>\n

“Things have changed in the last three years. My kids have always been my No. 1 focus,” she said. “I’ve turned down tons of jobs in the past just to be with my children because their dad [musician Shooter Jennings] is on the road, and he’s not around as much.”<\/p>\n

As for judgements others may have about her work on OnlyFans, De Matteo is pragmatic.<\/p>\n

“I just don’t care. I don’t. I’d rather save my family than save face.” <\/p>\n

She continued, “I know some people have said some nasty things about me having joined OnlyFans. But, you know, the way we see it in this house is mommy’s a warrior, not accepting defeat.”<\/p>\n

Defeat was a very real possibility. At 51, she says, her agent dropped her and because of her vax stance, she had a hard time getting work and almost lost her home over it.<\/p>\n

“I guess you could say I was a bad girl because I did not follow the rules a couple of years ago. So, I don’t want to be at the mercy of mandates or strike or anything like that ever again.”<\/p>\n

De Matteo played Adriana the first five seasons of The Sopranos<\/em>. After Adriana became an informant for the FBI, Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) ordered her killed. Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt) murdered her in a memorable episode, but de Matteo returned for two episodes in season 6. She won an Emmy for the role in 2004.<\/p>\n

After The Sopranos, de Matteo appeared on shows such as Desperate Housewives<\/em> and Sons of Anarchy<\/em>, among others.<\/p>\n
