An adult content creator says her resemblance to Love Island host Maya Jama has helped her rake in £30,000 in just three weeks. Toni Camille creates adult content on the subscription site Fanvue and says she is "so flattered" her fans think she looks like the stunning television presenter.
Toni says her earnings have doubled in the last three weeks compared to the same time the previous month, and she believes the return of Love Island has increased the interest in her page. Love Island fans have had nothing but praise for new host Maya, 28, since she took over the role this series.
From her jaw-dropping outfits to her confidence and warmth to contestants, fans have said she is "killing it" as the face of the show. And Toni says she is "just trying to ride the wave" of success right now, the Mirror reports.
The adult content creator, 26, says it is not the first time Maya has helped boost her business, as she also saw a spike in followers when Maya joined BBC Three's Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-Up Star contest as a presenter.
"I think it first started when she first went on Glow Up, but it’s just been mental since she’s been on Love Island and everyone's been talking about how flawless she's been, Toni said. "I've got so many new followers off the back of it, it's like people typed in Maya Jama and mistook me for her.
"I can't lie I'm really flattered. I'm definitely taking the compliment! So many people have said it to me now I feel like I can see the resemblance yeah, especially with different hairstyles and outfits."
Embracing the resemblance, Toni says she has been recreating some of Maya's looks from Love Island and the spin off Aftersun. "I'm seeing more requests asking me to replicate certain outfits or pictures of hers in my own style which is where a lot of my income is coming from," she said.
The content creator doesn't mind that new followers might only be subscribing for her similarity to Maya Jama, instead, she thinks it's "great" and has "no complaints". As a fan of Maya herself, Toni added: "She's just so gorgeous isn’t she, I've really been loving watching her on the show."
Toni was not an overnight success and did not plan to tap into the look-a-like market, as she didn't see the similarities herself at the start. She worked as a cleaner before "trying to make ends meet", and reached a point where she has "nothing to lose" so took the plunge into adult content creation.
Now Maya is on Love Island, her monthly earnings have doubled and Toni wants to treat herself this summer, she said: "Booking a villa getaway for me and my friends is high on the list."
That villa won't be ITV's infamous Love Island Villa however as she has no plans to become a contestant but would "never say never". She added: "Kai or Ron on this year's series are definitely a bit of me, maybe I'll slide into their DMs when they’re out."
