Former child star Dan Benson recalls being recognized at Disneyland… for his OnlyFans content
"I was waiting in line for a ride, and someone on the ride turns to me and goes, like, 'Dan Benson, I love you!'"
Boy, I was bad at taking nudes back then. I’m good at it now. But back then? Yeah, I sent out nude pictures that weren’t even good. I see them all like, ‘Oh, boy!’ I’m not even upset they’re out there. I’m upset that those are the ones that are out there.
I got recognized at Disneyland. I was waiting in line for a ride, and someone on the ride turns to me and goes, like, ‘Dan Benson, I love you!’ And I go, ‘What the…?’ Because that’s never happened to me before.
Even at the height of Disney, when I was on “Wizards of Waverly Place,” no one knew my actual name. They just were like, ‘Zeke! The funny, goofy one! I know you!’
So, it’s a really weird experience now to be kind of way more famous than I was before just because I made this extreme choice into doing more, like, sex work.
