The Canadian skater dedicated an entire Instagram post last year to explain how she landed on the adult social media website. Alexandra Ianculescu revealed that she would get a crazy amount of likes on her bikini pictures on Instagram. Soon someone suggested she sell her snaps on OnlyFans.

She explained that with the platform she could pay for her rent and trips without sacrificing her practice sessions. She wrote,??being able to enjoy it in a way where I don?t have to sacrifice my athletic life to work 3 part time jobs like I used to in the past, while pursuing Olympic Dreams.? Nevertheless, she added that the skater does not care about people?s judgment because they are not affording her life.
