BAYWATCH Hawaii star Brande Roderick has revealed she’s making ‘more money than ever’ by stripping off for OnlyFans.
Brande, 50, who starred as Leigh Dyer in the 1999 spin-off, is following in the footsteps of Denise Richards, Drea de Matteo and Carol Alt by raking in the cash on the adult site.
The actress has experience in the field, though, having enjoyed a career as a glamour model alongside her TV career.
She told Fox News Digital: “Me being a single mom of two boys with no financial support from their father, I have to take care of my family.
“And for me, my passion and love is acting and producing. So, in order for me to do that, I have, you know, my side job with OnlyFans, which helps to facilitate my other passion of acting and producing.
“So, for me, it’s been really a wonderful outlet for me.”
Brande went on to compare her OnlyFans shoots to her Playboy work, but this time with more creative control.
She explained: “You only put out there the images that you love and that you want, you know, the world to see.
“Whereas when you were doing Playboy, you really had no control over it. So, it’s like I’m my own Hugh Hefner, I guess.”
The blonde beauty also made clear that she doesn’t “show any nudity down below” and tries to bring an artistic and meaninful approach to the images.

Brande got the gig after going through four or five stages of auditions including tough swimming and water tests.

She and Cadrez divorced in 2017.
