It’s the height of audacity.
The World’s Tallest Model and former Olympic medalist claims she’s lost out on a potential half a million dollars after her explicit OnlyFans content was stolen and reposted on the social media platform Discord.
Ekaterina Lisina — who at 6-foot-9 holds the title of the world’s tallest catwalker from the Guinness Book of World Records and was once listed as having the world’s longest legs — has gone to court to unmask the online thieves.
“It’s one of the most explicit videos of mine and that’s why it was valuable,” Lisina, 36, whose pins measure nearly 52 inches long, told The Post.
The stolen clip, for which Lisina would charge $36 on OnlyFans, has clocked more than 16,000 views on a Discord forum called “tall woman appreciation,” she said.
“It forced me to be more explicit,” she said.
“It forced me to do more because people see this for free, because of them.
The paid views on OnlyFans “started to fall immediately, because the video got leaked,” said Lisina, a former pro-basketball player in her native country, Russia, and a member of the country’s bronze-winning team at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Lisina believes at least three videos and seven sets of photos were stolen and reposted elsewhere in the last three months.
She joined OnlyFans about four years ago, but didn’t initially dip her considerable toes into explicit content, said Lisina, who also runs an agency for taller models.
“I started to do OnlyFans just wearing lingerie,” she said.
“But then I was in good shape, I just wanted to make more money, so I made the decision to go nude.
“I do art nudes. I show my whole body naked, but I don’t do porn,” she explained.
“My income increased at least five times,” she said of the decision a few months ago to go au natural.
The theft has left her with “severe financial hardship,” she said in her Manhattan Federal Court filing which seeks a judge to force Discord to reveal the identities of those who stole her clips.
She believes the thieves are working for a rival modeling agency, trying to drive traffic to its own sites by stealing other people’s content.
“By gaining access to that forum you’re strongly encouraged to share explicit content,” said Lisina’s lawyer, Alex Lonstein.
“They afford and give more access to the forum depending on your level of sharing, the content of which is either all stolen or reposted without the proper licenses.”
The issue of online piracy has legs, Lonstein said.
“There needs to be stricter piracy laws because we’re now moving beyond what the scope of what the copyright law was intended for,” the attorney noted.
