Being a Playboy cover girl may seem like it's all money and glamour — but for one model, posing in skimpy underwear just wasn't enough.
Francia James first posed for the magazine back in 2019, hoping that it would lead her to landing some big bucks.
However, she claims made very little money from it despite the lingering title following her online and that she found simply posing around in lingerie relentless.

Speaking to the Daily Star, the Colombia-born model said: "I was on the cover of Playboy about three years ago. I was shooting with a photographer and he asked if he could submit the photos to Playboy.
"At the time, I was just starting out on Instagram and I didn’t think much of it. When I got the call that they wanted me on the cover I was pretty excited.
"I come from a very small town in Colombia and I grew up very poor. The idea behind Playboy is luxury and wealth so for me it was like maybe I can do this modelling thing after all.
"I don’t make any money from it but I guess people hold that as a status symbol.
"I really love making comedy content more than I do just taking sexy photos. I found it rather boring eventually just taking photos."
Francia has since been filmed wearing her lingerie out in public on buses and trains, and even emerged from the changing rooms wearing the matching set with a pair of white stockings and heels during her social media skits.
She also has more than 11million Instagram followers and has gained a fortune from OnlyFans which has helped her buy four houses — including one for her mum.
She added: “I do quite well with my OnlyFans page Francety. I joined over two years ago and have maintained my spot over the years as one of their top creators.
“I was always taught not to talk about money but I can say that I have been able to do some really amazing things with my money including buying myself a home in South Florida and also a home for both of my sisters and one for my mother.
"The day I was able to buy my mom that home was something I will never forget. She worked so hard her whole life to provide for me and my sisters so this was something that meant more than anything else.”
