凱特納許 (Kate Nash) 表示 OnlyFans 的收入將比巡演高

Kate Nash, a well-known singer famous for her hit song Foundations from 2007, has recently made headlines by stating that she believes she will earn more money from selling pictures of her bottom on the platform OnlyFans than she will from her concert tours. She joined OnlyFans during what she describes as a challenging time for artists trying to tour. With a catchy slogan 'Butts for tour buses,' Kate announced that the income she generates from OnlyFans will help support her live shows, as she feels that 'touring makes losses not profits. ' In her own words, she expressed that it is somewhat of a punk protest for her as a woman to take control of her body and use it to fund her passion for music, which she has pursued for 18 years. Kate aims to shed light on the harsh realities that artists face in the music industry. After completing a three-week tour in the United States, she has now started her UK tour in Glasgow, with her London concert at Koko already sold out. However, she candidly shared with BBC News, 'I'm losing money from those tours. ' She elaborated that the only way to make a profit is to either sell enough merchandise to cover the expenses or to make difficult decisions like cutting wages or even letting go of band members and crew. Kate is not willing to compromise on the quality of her performances, which leaves her questioning whether her career is a job or merely a passion project. She emphasized that this is a crucial time for women to take control and feel empowered in their choices. Interestingly, she mentioned that she often shares pictures of her posterior on social media, and the images she has posted on OnlyFans are revealing but not explicit. Kate humorously stated, 'I think the arse is the perfect combination of comedy and sexuality. ' She enjoys taking pictures of her bottom and finds it amusing. In fact, she believes that she will likely earn more from OnlyFans than from her music over the next three months. In a light-hearted manner, she told her fans on Instagram, 'No need to stream my music, I’m good for the 0. 003 of a penny per stream thanks. ' Last month, fellow artist Lily Allen revealed that she makes more money selling pictures of her feet on OnlyFans than she does from Spotify streams. In recent months, several artists, including Ratboy and Liela Moss, have canceled their tours due to rising costs. Kate highlighted a survey conducted by a recording and rehearsal studio network called Pirate, which indicated that most artists have not seen an increase in gig fees despite the significant rise in ticket prices. She pointed out, 'Festival prices and ticket prices have gone up drastically, but the musicians' wage hasn't. ' This means that even if artists sell out venues they have performed at multiple times, they are still receiving the same payment they did a decade ago, while all other expenses have increased. Kate also noted that while some corporations and a select few artists make substantial profits from music, the majority of musicians are struggling financially. She expressed concern that the current environment in the music industry discourages diversity by making it difficult for working-class individuals to pursue careers in music. Kate suggested that musicians could learn valuable lessons from sex workers, stating, 'You've got all this control, and you're deciding what you want to do and how you want to do it, and people want to pay you for it. ' She believes that artists should be empowered to take control of their work and recognize the value and significance of art in our lives. Kate's perspective highlights the need for change in the music industry, advocating for artists to feel empowered and in control of their creative endeavors.
