Lily Phillips has left people seriously concerned with her latest revelation.
The adult star, who recently went viral after sleeping with 101 men in a day in an extreme 'challenge', made a surprising remark about "self respect" that many have deemed heartbreaking.
In a new interview with podcast host Shizzio, the 23-year-old, from Derbyshire, responded: "None of it mate. Out the window," when asked about her self-respect.
Lily, who has emotionally opened up in recent months about the toll her "intense sex marathon" had on her, added: "I don't even know what self-respect means at this point." It comes after the adult content creator offered a glimpse behind the scenes of her recent viral stunt, which saw her sleep with 101 men in the course of one single day back in October.
In a YouTube film titled, 'I Slept With 100 Men in One Day', Lily shed light on how she and her team pulled off the event, from ID checks to working with last-minute cancellations. However during the 48-minute film, the former Sheffield University student worried viewers as she revealed in tears that the performance was "not for the weak".
Now followers of the star have expressed further concern for her wellbeing. She continued in the chat with Shizzio: "I think I just don't know the meaning of it" before stressing: "I respect myself, I guess."
A snippet of the conversation has been widely shared on social media, with the clip now racking up 250,000 views. Some viewers admitted they were left crying following Lily's 'painful' confession. One wrote: "I just want to hug her" while another said: "Wow. This one is painful." Another viewer said: "I feel so sorry for her" alongside a crying face emoji.
Talking in more detail about her OnlyFans challenge, Lily, who is now aiming to sleep with 1,000 men in a day this month, told YouTuber Josh: "It's not for the weak girls if I'm honest – it was hard. I don't know if I'd recommend it. It's a different feeling. It's just one in one out, it feels intense."
Josh asked if it was more intense than she thought and she broke down in tears, saying: "Definitely." But despite getting emotional in the clip, Lily reassured fans that she is healthy and mentally strong. Speaking on the documentary, Lily explained her reasoning behind her niche and said: "You have to stand out with unique content. You have to be different... Because there are so many people on OnlyFans," Mail Online reports.
However, the newfound drive to create extreme content has raised concerns with fellow creators and viewers. Film star Alex Le Tissier, who appeared in the doc, said: "I just think it's really sad. I just worry about her mental health. I'm hoping it's a hoax and it's not going to actually happen, I don't know. From what I've seen of her. I think she's young and beautiful, I just don't think she has to sleep with a hundred guys in one day for attention."
Online critics are now even calling for the platform to be banned as more stars push boundaries to attract and maintain subscribers, with seemingly very little in the way of safeguarding. The Mirror has put these concerns to OnlyFans and has asked for clarity on their safeguarding measures with no response.
Lily, who started her channel at university, previously shared how she has been led to question her unconventional 9-5 when she compares herself to her friends in happy relationships. She said: "There are days when I'm sat here on a Sunday, my friends have all got boyfriends, and I see a comment, and people are like, 'no one is ever going to marry you' or something like that. And that can definitely make me feel a little bit like, oh god. Have I chosen the wrong career?"
The adult star also spoke about how her otherwise supportive parents have previously expressed anxieties over her romantic prospects, revealing: "Yeah, I talk about this a lot with my parents. Because I guess that's one thing they worry about is like, 'will you ever find - boyfriend’. But you know, there's so many guys in the world, I think you know one poor b******'s got to marry me. I think it's either going to be someone from the industry or someone who is into lending me out."
When it comes to marriage and finding the one, Lily's perspective has changed significantly over the years, and she's admitted that she no longer views sex as "special". Lily said: "I actually wanted to wait for marriage at one point. I just used to think it was a really special thing. As soon as I actually did it, I kind of realised that it wasn't special. And also that I just really loved it and really enjoyed it and that I wanted to do it way more often."
Despite admitting she "doesn't know whether she'd recommend" sleeping with 100 men in such a short space of time, Lily is now understood to be "in training" for a 1,000-men event this month.
Experts have warned that the current online landscape, which favours viral content, could be putting creators at risk. Cyberstalking expert specialist Demelza Luna Reaver, of The Cyber Helpline, told the Mirror: "In terms of the trends developing, there are always concerns that these can become quite dangerous. And when I say dangerous, I mean in terms of security and safety.
"More personal information is being shared. I know that in the documentary there was a conversation around personal commissioning for videos. One-to-one videos, and so on. And it's ensuring that, if this is participated in, what level of detail is being shared? Is there still a safety barrier between the creator and the person who is purchasing that video or any type of content for that person? Or are they sharing personal details with a person online that they've never met, and it could put them at risk in the future?"
