In a surprising turn of events, actress Drea de Matteo, known for her iconic role as Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos, has made headlines not for her on-screen presence but for her off-screen choices. Facing a career crisis due to her stance against COVID-19 vaccine mandates in Hollywood, de Matteo recently took a bold step by joining OnlyFans, a platform typically associated with adult content, to support her family.

De Matteo, 51, revealed in a candid interview with Fox News that her career took a nosedive after she refused to comply with industry mandates regarding the COVID-19 vaccine.
