LOS ANGELES — OnlyFans subverted April Fools’ expectations today by actually offering a desk fan branded as an “OnlyFan” in a likely reference to a popular meme.

Announced via Twitter, the company stated, “Joking… not joking! Say hello to the OnlyFan! A portable fan and power bank available to pre-order today for $20. You can even use it as a portable 4000mAh charger for your phone. We hope you’ll be a fan!”

The fan appears to slyly reference a viral image of a ceiling fan store named “Only Fans,” which has been appropriated to make jocular references to the premium fan site.

The OnlyFans’ OnlyFan, retailing for $20, can be pre-ordered here.

MIAMI — Logan Xander has found viral popularity on TikTok. For the past two months Xander, under the username of Heygrimy, has steadily grown his fan base by offering a behind-the-scenes perspective on the adult industry.

Xander is known for exclusively working for Bang Bros as a director, editor, producer and occasional onscreen talent.

He has gained nearly 480,000 followers on TikTok in just two months with over 4.6 million “likes.”

“I didn’t think I’d be able to build a following so quickly,” Xander said. “I realized that so many people on the app really had no idea how much work actually goes into these films so it’s been really cool to be able to show people how professional the industry can be.”

In a recent clip, Xander revealed he will be starting a YouTube channel to provide “uncensored” responses to viewer questions and circumvent the platform’s strict rules regarding discussion of adult content.

As reported by XBIZ, TikTok has a complicated relationship with creators who engage in or discuss consensual sex work.

Ward recently inked a two-year contract extension with Vixen Media Group; following her 2019 adult biz debut, the lauded performer has earned six XBIZ Awards for her acting and scene work.

“The Big Time” is designed around Ward’s central role as “a world-famous adult superstar trying to save a waning film studio on the brink of collapse. Armed with a plan to shake things up, she hires a nerdy aspiring writer and mama’s boy to breathe new life into her steamy scenes,” noted a rep

Brett Azar (“Young Rock,” NBC) has been cast in a costarring role.

“When I read the script, I fell in love and immediately knew I’d want to be a part of it in a significant and impactful way,” said Ward. “It’s exciting for me to be able to marry my creative talents as an actress and my experience in the adult world to create such an original, fun character and a powerful female-driven, sex-positive project — and to be involved as a producer takes all of this to a new level.”

The series was created by Leaving Normal’s Zerelda Nothnagel and Mikey Rodriguez. Besides Ward, Tim O’Hanlon of Velvet Horizon Films and Charlie Alberto IV will also produce. Rob Alicea is an executive producer.

“We are beyond thrilled to have Maitland be a part of ‘The Big Time,’ both as the star and producer,” Nothnagel said. “She brings invaluable insight and authenticity to a subject that is often misunderstood, and does so through a sex-positive lens.”
