Who is this former Disney star who is now an adult entertainer?

For many Disney Channel viewers in the late 2000s and early 2010s, Dan Benson was a household name. He was a fan favorite for his role as the charming Zeke Beakerman on the popular television series Wizards of Waverly Place. Benson’s career, however, took a new path following the 2012 finale of Wizards of Waverly Place. In 2021 he said that he had entered the adult entertainment industry.

Benson’s life took an unexpected turn when his personal images, meant for a woman he met on a dating app, were released without his permission, putting him in danger of facing backlash from the public and possible career repercussions. As soon as the pictures appeared online, they were widely shared on social media, bombarding Benson into the public eye for all the wrong reasons.

The leak naturally caused Benson to feel humiliated and ashamed, and he worried that his career was ruined. To his amazement, though, his then-boss was very understanding, and he was able to keep his job. “It was mortifying,” Benson told in an interview “It was absolutely horrifying.”

But according to Benson, the leak also offered him a fresh outlook. He came to the conclusion that he didn’t want to live in constant fear of what other people would think of him, so he made the decision to accept his sexuality and use this newfound fame to his advantage. After his experience, he decided to switch careers and lean more toward the adult entertainment industry. Benson decided to enter the domain of adult entertainment in 2021 by creating his own Onlyfans account.
