American Pie’s Shannon Elizabeth Reveals Why She’s Joining OnlyFans

The film—which followed a group of high school friends determined to lose their virginity before graduation—featured several NSFW moments, including Shannon’s nude scene. But that spicy movie moment ultimately cemented her status as a sex symbol in the late 90s and early 2000s.

In fact, Shannon even previously credited those scenes for her career success. 

“If I hadn’t done the nudity,” she said in the 2020 documentary Skin: A History Of Nudity In The Movies, per USA Today, “I might not have a career today.”

However, the Scary Movie star recently admitted that her onscreen persona couldn’t be further from who she is at her core.

“For me, it was a role, it was playing a character,” Shannon told Entertainment Tonight in March. “But even in my real life, I’m just not the girl that likes to be naked, ever.”

“Even at home I’m always covered up,” she added. “Like I have friends that sleep in the nude and they don’t mind walking around that way. That was never me, but because that was kind of my coming out, everyone assumed I was that girl.”

And even though there’s been some controversy over whether the film holds up today, Shannon—who went on to star in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Thirteen Ghosts and Love Actually—still believes the comedy was life-changing for her.

“Everything that I’ve done in my life,” she told ET, “is because of American Pie.”
