Alice Ardelean 'Queen Of Teasing,' Set For UFC Debut
Alice Ardelean isn't likely a household name. Unless your household happens to subscribe to the OnlyFans account of the self-proclaimed "Queen Of Teasing." If that's the case, you surely know that Ardelean, a TikTok star, makes her UFC debut this evening at UFC 304 in Manchester.
Ardelean is most well-known for what she does outside the octagon, which she says allows her to compete in the octagon.
Stay with me.
The 32-year-old fighter has nearly 600k Instagram followers, more than 3 million on TikTok and surely plenty more fans who are shelling out $10.99 every month to see her exclusive "teasing" content on her OnlyFans page.
She told the Daily Star the page was necessary to advance her MMA career: "In reality, the only reason why, I was doing OnlyFans was to be able to pay for my training, nutritionist and gym equipment every day."
Alice Ardelean Debuts In UFC Saturday Evening
Ardelean makes a fortune online among OnlyFans and other social media influencing, but it's her love of MMA, and not payday, that has her stepping into the octagon for the first time, telling the Daily Sun:
"I am telling you it is a blessing and I am so grateful. I am still hustling at it and I am making around $40,000 a month (online)."
She later added: "It was MMA before OnlyFans."
Ardelean's OnlyFans isn't exactly gloves off, either. She states in her site bio that "you won't find porn or explicit on my page."
Nope. That nearly $11 bucks a month is for teasing purposes only.
The "Queen Of Teasing" is getting her first taste of the UFC because Ravena Oliveira was injured, leaving an opening for a fighter to square off with fellow strawweight Shauna Bannon. In comes Ardelean who has a career 9-5 record, though that's been mostly against lesser competition in South African promotion EFC.
Win or lose, it seems like Ardelean plans to continue fighting and teasing. "I can’t give up the training because that’s why I started OnlyFans," said Ardelean. "It is like work from home, pictures, responding to people, it can be in my extra time."
In a few hours we'll find out if Alice Ardelean's fight matches her Queen Of Teasing moniker, or if she's a real knockout.
