The United States celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday (January 15). Aubrey O’Day used the occasion to direct social media users to check out her OnlyFans content.
“‘Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.’ – Martin Luther King Jr.,” O’Day wrote on her Instagram page. She used the quote as the caption for a photo/video carousel.
Aubrey O’Day’s post included six images of her, some of which featured seductive poses. She also used several slides to directly promote her OnlyFans subscription page. In one clip, O’Day twerked to the camera and slapped her bare behind.
The MLK Day promotion for the former Danity Kane member’s OnlyFans generated mixed reactions online. Some Aubrey O’Day supporters praised the pictures. However, critics slammed her for incorporating the late Civil Rights icon’s legacy with her sexually suggestive advertising.
“When I look at these pics, Martin Luther King’s moving speeches from 1964 are exactly what I think of,” one person sarcastically typed in O’Day’s Instagram comment section. Another person commented, “This is NOT it, sis. Show some respect.”
As social media users slammed her MLK caption, Aubrey O’Day reposted a pop culture podcaster’s Instagram Story post applauding her “Hitchhiker” single to her own Instagram Story. Peter Panos claimed, “@aubreyoday’s solo music was so good and ahead of [its] time!” O’Day added a heart hand emoji and a kiss mark emoji.
