He raised over $1000 in his first OnlyFans live

Dan Benson might have hung up his Wizards of Waverly Place wand over 10 years ago, but now he’s using a different kind of magic – also known as OnlyFans – to raise money for the victims of the LA wildfires.

Last week, the Pacific Palisades neighbourhood in Los Angeles, California, went up in flames as the LA Fire Department attempted to douse the blaze that was threatening even more areas. It’s still going even now, and with it, numerous celebrity homes have been reduced to ash.

With no end in sight, celebrities have been emptying their coin purses and coughing up millions for the relief aid, and now it seems even former Disney Channel kids are lending a hand – literally.

Dan Benson is using his OnlyFans to raise money for charity

 

Dan Benson might now be an OnlyFans icon with nearly 500k followers on Twitter, but most of us know him as Zeke in the four seasons of Disney’s Wizards of Waverly Place. He was the best friend of Justin Russo, played by David Henrie. Well, a lot has changed since then as Dan joined OnlyFans in 2022 and hasn’t looked back.

After seeing the ongoing wildfires, Dan posted on Twitter: “Streaming tomorrow night at 8 pm PST-> all tips go towards LA Fire relief charities for the rest of January.” Sure enough, he went live that night and while there is no way to determine if the money was donated, it’s something he claims to be keeping up throughout January.

“Raising money for the Pasadena Humane Society tonight. Giving away Polaroids all night long,” he said again on Sunday, this time alongside an x-rated array of polaroid snaps that were up for grabs. “We raised over $1,000 for the Pasadena Humane Society tonight!! Thank you so much, everyone! See you Wednesday night!”

His goal to donate money has certainly gone down well with his OnlyFans subscribers, as one penned in the comments: “The hero we deserve. Using your [eggplant emoji] for the greater good!”

“Such a grand gesture. Guess I owe you one!!” another said.

Of course, others simply wrote “Let me have it Daddy”, but that’s Twitter for you.
