The Stan Original series Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money "takes a peek into the opulent and outrageous lives of adult content creators on the Gold Coast. Dominating the top 1% of OnlyFans creators worldwide, these fiercely ambitious women rake in up to and over $1 million a year for as little as two days' work a week. They’ve officially hacked the system—taking total control of their own sexuality and dictating the terms of their success."

Pomma Granet, also known as Blair Bishop, also known as OnlyPomma, Juicy Pomma, Succubus Slut, and a host of other usernames given how many times they’ve had accounts deleted, is a New York-based full service sex worker, adult content creator, BDSM & fetish provider, cammer, and much more. 

Blair describes themselves as a bit of a nerd - they love video games, cosplay, anime, crafting, and alternative fashion and they are often traveling the country for anime conventions. They also spend a lot of their time online yelling into the void about sex worker’s rights and thus they fit right in here!
