A former cheerleader has thanked her extreme flexibility for earning her a whopping $150,000 (approximately £112,000) a month. Miami Macy receives hundreds of requests a day to pose in a series of mind boggling positions — which she credits her athletic background for.
Having trained as a cheerleader throughout school and university, the 25-year-old decided to capitalise on her unique skill set of performing “never-before-seen” poses. And, according to the model, it’s proving incredibly lucrative.
“I can do things in crazy positions that people have never seen before,” said Macy, who boasts 1.3m Instagram followers at her account @miamimacy. “My niche is being super flexible.
“My fans can’t stop talking about how my flexibility drives them crazy, they’re always requesting more videos of me doing the splits and getting my knees behind my head. Some of them have even referred that I can fold myself like a pretzel; they love it when I do certain positions like vertical and horizontal splits.
“It’s cool to be one of those people who can give that to the audience that’s looking for it. I started cheerleading at the age of eight, did it in school and college, followed by all-star competitive cheer, so I’ve been doing it almost my whole life.
“I owe my flexibility to all the hard work I put in at school when I first joined the cheer squad. I trained at least eight hours a week during the height of my cheerleading days, but I was always looking for more time to dedicate to it as a full-time student and part-time employee.
“I used to train for performance, strength, flexibility, and endurance, which required a lot of commitment and dedication, but I was passionate.” Growing up in Arkansas, US, cheerleading and gymnastics were a big part of Macy’s life, and proved to be something of an escape from a “challenging” home environment.
After getting into college to study psychology in Arkansas, Macy was still living in the family home, but was desperate to move out. While she posted shots of herself posing in bikinis online, she hadn’t explored the world of adult content — until her followers began begging her to start an OnlyFans page in 2020.
Macy said: “I was so offended by it at the time. I had around 10,000 followers and liked to post bikini pictures but I never intended to go into this type of industry.
“But when I thought about it, starting one and making money off it kind of gave the power back to me. I could literally walk down the street in my pyjamas, having rolled out of bed, and I would get catcalled.
“I realised that I was going to be sexualized anyway — so I may as well make a profit off of it. I had no real hopes of making much money, I just thought I’d make a few extra dollars that I would be able to save.
“But within a month of starting my page, I was able to move out because I made thousands of dollars almost instantly. It was amazing, I couldn’t believe it, I could suddenly do what I wanted when I wanted.”
Six years later and Macy’s life has changed dramatically as her page has gone from strength to strength, pocketing her an estimated $150,000 (£112,000) a month. She credits her “niche” of uber flexibility, and continues to keep her body in tip top condition, following an intense gym schedule — allowing her to strike ever more outlandish poses.
Macy said: “Now that competition days are over, to keep up my active lifestyle, I still tumble and practice handstands regularly, but I have found a love for weight training. I lift weights 4-5 times a week on top of daily cardio.”
Not only has her OnlyFans career contributed mass earnings, it has also boosted her self-confidence in a huge way after overcoming her own personal battles. Macy said: “It’s made me a lot more comfortable and confident in myself to see so many people willing to spend money just to talk to me or see more of me.
“When I first started, I had this idea that my opinion wouldn’t matter, that I’d just have to be hypersexual no matter what I’m doing; I let the stigma get to me so bad and make me feel like less of a person because I was doing this thing. It took years for me to overcome and now I feel like a real person with human feelings and I matter just as much as anyone else.”
