Former Baywatch star Brande Roderick says her OnlyFans gig has been a “great” revenue source for helping her take care of her family.

“Me being a single mom of two boys with no financial support from their father, I have to take care of my family,” Roderick, 50, tells Fox News Digital. “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.” 

Roderick was married to former NFL player Glenn Cadrez from 2007 to 2017 and the pair share sons Kannon, 14, and Keaton, 13.

The former Celebrity Apprentice contestant, who joined Baywatch as Leigh Dyer in 2000 and also appeared in Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding, says the photos she shares to her OnlyFans page are similar to the pictures she took when she modelled for Playboy.

“Well, I do pretty much, basically Playboy,” she explains. “I continue that, I do beautiful art photos like I did when I was in Playboy. I don’t show any nudity down below, that’s the only difference, but I do try to make them very artistic and very beautiful and very meaningful.”

Roderick says she likes being part of the OnlyFans community because she’s her “own editor.”

“You only put out there the images that you love and that you want, you know, the world to see,” she continues. “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.” 

With her new OnlyFans side hustle in full swing, Roderick joins fellow Baywatch stars Donna D’Errico and Carmen Electra on the platform.

Last year, D’Errico said her followers are “respectful and nice and sweet. There’s nothing gross, grotesque going on.”

Speaking to Fox News Digital, D’Errico, 56, said that her fan requests have changed during her time sharing photos on the platform.

“You know, in the beginning, I got a lot of, or some requests, for feet,” she shared. “I don’t really get that anymore. Now, they mostly want to see me, like in everyday life, just the real me and everyday life.”

Electra, Roderick’s former co-star and friend, previously told PEOPLE that the strangest request she’d received on her OnlyFans was to see her feet. 

“I get so many foot requests which is the funniest thing to me,” Electra told the outlet. “I’m always like, ‘What would you want to see me do with my feet? Should I stomp grapes? Put whipped cream on them?’”

Electra also said she likes being her own boss when it comes to deciding how revealing she wants to be on the site.

“I get to feel the freedom and creativity of doing whatever I want to do, bouncing back and forth with the fans and their requests,” she told PEOPLE.

But unlike Electra, Roderick tells Fox News Digital that she hasn’t “had any strange requests.”

“I wish I had something fun to share. But everybody is just, honestly, everybody is super respectful and kind. My Playboy fans are just, honestly, really sweet, kind people. I don’t really have anyone that asks for anything crazy,” she says. “I think it’d be fun if someone asked for a feet picture. Maybe I don’t have cute feet? I thought I had cute feet,” she joked. “I don’t know, I’ll have to ask Carmen about it.”
