Adult stars Richelle Ryan and Athena Parisi were featured in Vice for a pre-election day article titled, “On the Campaign Trail for the OnlyFans Vote,” written by Hallie Lieberman.

Some of those I interviewed said they believed support for Trump was higher than the poll showed. Richelle Ryan, a Trump-supporting sex worker, said she thought about “30 to 35 percent” of sex workers agreed with her. Athena Parisi, a trans sex worker who supports Harris, said the number is even higher. “Most of the people in the industry I know are voting for Trump,” she said. “We are, like, the most hated group online right now… [but] 99 percent of the time, if I’m talking to a Trump supporter, they don’t treat me the way they treat me online.”

Ryan said she’s voting for Trump because he “supports the American Dream and the Constitution.” Ryan decided to organize an event for Trump after he was shot: “I was like, wow, we have to do something.” She first supported him publicly in 2016, posting a picture of herself at one of his rallies. “Next thing I knew, people were coming at me with pitchforks,” she said. However, since then many fans have messaged in solidarity, she says.
