While we don’t normally talk about politics here at Fleshbot, today’s story is a little different.

Alexandra Hunt is a 29-year-old former stripper running for congress in Philadelphia.

Not only is she unapologetic about her former career, but she has also made it part of her campaign message. In fact, she’s doubled down on the saucy side. On April 14, congressional candidate Alexandra Hunt became an OnlyFans creator.

She used to fear the “age-old stigma” attached to sex work and said she was fired as a girls’ soccer coach when the team found out. But now she’s shouting about it from the rooftops — and hopes to decriminalize sex work.

The platform, which enables users to subscribe to creators for a monthly subscription fee ranging from $5 to $50, allows influencers, celebrities, and sex workers to make content and connect with their fans. But while almost anyone can set up an OnlyFans, the company’s brand is more synonymous with explicit content than with political campaigns.

Hunt’s decision to join OnlyFans is the latest move made by candidates attempting to score a viral moment online, counting on such moments to raise funds and hopefully drive voters to the polls on Election Day.

But whether Hunt’s OnlyFans — or any of her social media work — will pay off is another question.

Hunt, 29, is hoping to unseat Pennsylvania Rep. Dwight Evans, a Democrat and longtime politician in Congress since 2016 and in state politics since the 80s. She identifies as a progressive, an alternative to Evans’ more mainstream Democratic platform. She’s recently called for President Joe Biden to cancel federal student loan debt, emphasized her support for labor unions, and called for less corporate involvement in politics.

She said she joined the platform after she received a comment online from someone who told her they looked forward to her joining OnlyFans after her “election loss.”

“I get attacked day in and day out, and I think I’ve grown a little bit numb to it,” Hunt told Insider. “But I really don’t like to see other people attacked, especially other sex workers, because I know how hard it is for them.

“When someone said to me something like ‘I can’t wait for you to lose your race so that you make an OnlyFans,’ I was like, no way that this is gonna be a loser thing,” she added. “I can win and have an OnlyFans. I can be a candidate and have an OnlyFans. And so I made one.”

“My involvement in sex work was very dangerous — if I had gone missing, like so many sex workers do, no one would have known how or where to find me. I began speaking about sex work and my personal involvement in the industry on the campaign trail,” she wrote.

Her campaign slogan is the best – “I may have danced for money but I’m no corporate whore”.

I don’t live in Philly but if I did I know who I’d be voting for. :)
