Baywatch beauty Erika Eleniak on pace for $1 million OnlyFans payday decades after iconic TV role

"Baywatch" bombshell Erika Eleniak is riding a whole new wave — and cashing in.

The actress, who famously patrolled the beaches of Southern California in the hit '90s series, has raked in nearly $300,000 in just three months on OnlyFans — putting her on pace to make roughly $1 million during her first year on the subscription platform, TMZ reported.

Eleniak played lifeguard Shauni McClain on "Baywatch" from 1989 to 1992, becoming one of the show's original stars.

"When I first thought about , I honestly believed I was going to hate it," Eleniak told Fox News Digital. "But I have to tell you, I absolutely love it. It has given me this incredible opportunity to reconnect with so many wonderful people who have followed my career since the 1980s, from 'E.T.' to 'Baywatch,' my Playboy days, 'The Beverly Hillbillies,' and everything in between."

"I never imagined that joining OnlyFans would have such an emotional impact on me," she admitted. "For the first time in my life, I genuinely feel loved, appreciated and empowered in a way I never have before. It's an extraordinary feeling, and I honestly can't believe how much happiness it's brought into my life."

"I'm embracing this new chapter with open arms, and I feel more confident, more connected and more excited about the future than I have in years," Eleniak added.

According to TMZ, Eleniak is making "far more" than the $10,000 per week she was reportedly earning shortly after launching her profile in August. The outlet previously reported that Eleniak had more than 1,100 subscribers.

"What has touched me the most is realizing just how many people have stayed with me throughout all these years," Eleniak told Fox News Digital. "Some have been there since the very beginning, and now we're reconnecting in such a personal and meaningful way. I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to every single one of them. They're the reason I've had the career I've had, and they've given me so much love and support throughout my life."

OnlyFans allows creators, including celebrities, athletes and sex workers, to charge subscribers directly for content. The platform has attracted hundreds of millions of users and generated billions of dollars in annual transactions, according to company financial figures.

Eleniak said she initially joined OnlyFans because she thought it would be a fun way to connect with fans. She previously told Fox News Digital that she sometimes felt insecure in a swimsuit, but said she now feels more comfortable in her own skin.

"Well, that didn't change," she said. "When you're working in a costume that's basically a bathing suit, and you're running and doing action and all kinds of things, it's not the most comfortable uniform on the planet. So I don't think that would change for me today. But I am 57 years old. I am comfortable in my body and in my skin. I love where I'm at right now. So I suppose that's changed."

Eleniak describes her content as "personal, playful and unfiltered." She also isn't afraid to dip her toes into some unusual requests.

"There are a lot of people who like feet," she said with a smile. "Usually, when you get a request for something with feet, it can be a little funny. It can be a little odd, but to each their own. But I really was surprised feet was very popular."

Eleniak said she has faced little backlash since joining OnlyFans.

"I've been pleasantly surprised," she explained. "I've had a really warm welcome, and a lot of cheering on from people just saying, 'G
