Donna Mills, 85, draws the line at unexpected OnlyFans request: ‘I’m not going to’
"Knots Landing" star Donna Mills is revealing the one unexpected request she refuses to fulfill for her OnlyFans subscribers.
During a Friday appearance on ABC's "Nightline," the 85-year-old actress told correspondent Kayna Whitworth that her content largely consists of glimpses into her daily life but asserted that there is one routine she won’t perform for the camera.
"I do the Peloton," Mills said. "Just, you know, they’re the things of everyday life: having a cup of coffee, you know. They say they like it when you brush your teeth…I’m not going to brush my teeth."

When asked if she believes that most of the OnlyFans users who are engaging with her are men, Mills said, "I think so. Yeah. Sometimes you don’t know."
While Mills drew the line at brushing her teeth on camera, she appeared more open to sharing racier content with her subscribers. However, she explained that she does not believe full nudity is necessary to be sexy, pointing to one of her past Playboy shoots as an example.

"I think it’s sexier to be not just totally naked, you know," she said. "And have a little imagination about it."
"One of the pictures in ‘Playboy,’ which I think is one of the sexiest things, is me in the shower, in a dress," Mills added.
The "Play Misty for Me" star said she believed that the never-before-seen "Playboy" outtakes could be particularly enticing for her OnlyFans subscribers.
"I think the probably the most appealing would be the ones that weren't in the magazine, right?" she said. "Because they're from the shoot, the same shoot, but they weren't in the magazine."

After Whitworth asked how much she might charge subscribers for one of the previously unseen photos, Mills floated a potential price.
"Boy, I'm not sure," she said. "Maybe I'm not sure — $100."
"$100?" Whitworth replied.
"More?" Mills asked.
"We're thinking you could go up a little higher," Whiteworth told her.
Mills surprised her fans when she announced that she had launched an OnlyFans account in July.

The actress, who became a television sensation playing the glamorous and ruthless Abby Cunningham on "Knots Landing" from 1980 to 1989, said the platform would give her a chance to connect with fans in a more personal way.
Mills said fans were hungry for a behind-the-scenes look at her life, which she noted wasn't possible during her TV heyday.

"They want to know me," she told Variety at the time. "They want to know what I do during the day when I’m home. They want to see my home. They want to know much more about my personal life than we ever experienced back in the ’80s and the ’90s that, you know, the fans were cut off from."
"I've always appreciated the incredible support and encouragement I've received from my fans over the years," Mills said. "Social media has been a wonderful way to stay connected, but I'm excited to join OnlyFans because it offers the opportunity for a more personal and direct connection,"
However, Mills emphasized that she planned to approach OnlyFans on her own terms.
"It’s simply another platform to spend quality time with the people who’ve supported me throughout my career while staying true to who I am," she said.
Andy Bachman, CEO of Creators, Inc., the talent agency that manages Mills' OnlyFans account, noted that the Hollywood veteran isn't switching up her image.
"This is not about changing who she is. It is about giving her longtime fans more access to the personality, style and behind-the-scenes moments they already love," Andy Bachman, CEO of the talent agency Creators Inc., said.
"Donna has always been fearless and ahead of her time," Bachman added. "She told me, 'YOLO — let's do it,' and that perfectly captures her attitude. She is approaching OnlyFans on her own terms and creating a space that feels authentic, personal and completely true to her."
During an appearance on "TMZ Live" shortly after launching her account, Mills said that she wasn't planning to pose nude but didn't entirely rule out the possibility.
"Who knows? My first answer would be, oh, no, I won’t do that," she said. "But then my second answer is, I don’t know."
"I don’t want to do anything that’s salacious, you know what I mean?" Mills added. "That isn’t my personality. That isn’t what I feel good doing. But if it’s cute and sexy … we’ll see."
In August, Mills appeared on "Creators Inc. Podcast," less than a month after launching her account. At the time, Bachman, who hosts the podcast, shared an update on her page's performance.
"I can say that you are doing incredibly well," he said. "Many six figures, and it’s been early."
Bachman noted that Mills had already received some unusual requests, including "foot kink people" who asked to see the actress "stomping on grapes" with her bare feet in her vineyard.
"I’m gonna do it," Mills said. "I tried to shoot it myself. But you can’t shoot something while you’re stomping, it just doesn’t work."
"I'm going to uh… I'm going to do that very soon… and do it right so that you know people can… really enjoy it," she continued. "I think it's really funny and fun and uh it's the kind of thing that I want to be able to share with the fans."
In an interview with Fox News Digital last month, Mills teased what fans can expect from her future content.

"I think what the page will be, will be spicy. That’s kind of always been my thing, to be a little spicy," Mills said. "I think they’ll react to that, they’ll like that, and also it’s my chance to communicate with them through the videos and things like that and talk to them."
Mills also explained that part of her motivation for launching her OnlyFans was to prove that getting older doesn't mean life gets smaller.
"When I kind of looked at it a few years ago and said, 'What do I want to do with this portion of my life, this chapter in my life?' I said, 'I’d like to be an inspiration,'" she emphasized.

After playing one of television's most famously ambitious villains, Mills already knows exactly how Abby Cunningham would react to her latest move.
"She would say, ‘Go, girl!’ Without a doubt," Mills said. "Are you kidding? Abby would be all for it. She was for anything that was going to move her forward, that was going to be to her advantage. So, she would be dead on for this. She would love this."
