Aussie TV presenter Suzie MacKenzie, 58, forced to turn to adult entertainment work after getting the axe from her job following two decades on air - and reveals how her feet are making her a fortune

TV Shopping Network star Suzie MacKenzie has been forced to turn to adult entertainment to make a living after getting the axe from her job last month following two decades on the air.

The veteran presenter, 58, is hoping to spin her latest job into a lucrative new venture – and has already discovered an unexpected niche.

After spending two decades selling everything from shoes to carpet-cleaning products on TV, the former Home and Away guest star told Daily Mail that some of her loyal viewers are particularly interested in one thing - her feet.

'After doing endless shoe shows, selling shoes, even carpet cleaning, I have an audience very interested in my feet!' she explained.

'And that's fine. I love my feet. I love shoes, all of that!'

The former TVSN favourite, who had been with the network since 2006 and recorded thousands of hours of live unscripted broadcasts, said the platform is providing her with the freedom to explore interests she previously kept under wraps.

'That's the sort of thing I would keep quiet a lot while I was at TVSN. Now I can explore that arena a lot more!' she explained.

And MacKenzie is certainly not short of support at home, revealing that her rock guitarist husband Randall Waller is firmly behind her latest career move.

In fact, the professional musician has been proudly displaying naked images of his wife on his guitars for years.

'My husband is my biggest fan, my biggest supporter!' she said.

'He's got naked photos of me airbrushed on two of his guitars! He's been doing gigs with those guitars for decades!'

While she has not set firm boundaries for her OnlyFans content, MacKenzie said one of the biggest attractions was having the freedom to decide what she would share.

'What I love about OF is that we can choose as we go,' she said.

'So I can chat to people. I can decide what I want to do, who I want to do it for. I can decide on the mood I'm in.'

'I'm loving the freedom. I can choose as I go. I'm not going to make any rules yet.' 

When asked whether there was anything she would rule out, MacKenzie had a cheeky response.

'Darling, I'm never going to say no at this point,' she said.

MacKenzie is also hoping the platform will become her full-time career, making it clear she is serious about her ambitions.

'Oh, that's my plan, baby! I don't have a day job anymore,' she said.

Her decision to join OF has also given her the chance to reconnect with long-time friend and fellow adult star Rozz Switzer, with whom she would love to collaborate.

'She's absolutely amazing. One of my favourite people to talk to,' MacKenzie said. 

'Rozzie and I go back decades.'

The pair first knew each other when they were in their late teens and have been close ever since.

'Rozzie and I shared a dressing room for years. We all want to be Rozz,' she joked.

Elsewhere, MacKenzie also had some words of advice for Jo Silvagni, who earlier this month lost her Chemist Warehouse ambassador contract amid the fallout surrounding her son Tom, who was found guilty of two counts of rape late last year.

'That's a tough one, because everyone's under so much scrutiny these days,' she said.

'I just think you have to remain true to yourself.'

MacKenzie said it was important to stay positive when a door closed, suggesting it could ultimately lead to something better.

'At the end of the day, you have to think that things happen for a reason. Maybe one door closes for a reason... that means there's something else that's going to open,' she said.

'Maybe, like me, you have to reinvent yourself all of a sudden, or you have to think, "now what would I like to do?" It's the only positive way to look at it.

'You know, it could lead into something else. You could get a reality TV show, a presenting job!'

Away from her new career, MacKenzie also reflected on the pressures of working in television, where she said the pressure to maintain a squeaky-clean image influenced many professional decisions.

She recalled turning down reality television opportunities in the past because she worried that the editing process could affect her position at TVSN - but now, as a free agent, she is happy to work on her own terms.

'I've always had to second-guess what I say and do,' she said.

'Even right down to where I've been offered reality TV shows before. I turned them down because I was worried in the editing process, if I didn't come out looking squeaky clean, that would affect my position at TVSN.

'I really just wanted a place where I could connect with my fans, give them exclusive content. I can call my own shots.

'I don't care how good or bad I look. It's about the fact that you just make their day a little bit brighter.'
