DeMayo was one of the most-talked-about Marvel creators, leading the Emmy-nominated animated series X-Men '97, a continuation of the classic cartoon, for Disney+, but just days before the series premiered, he was fired for reasons that were unspecified at the time.
Now, DeMayo is saying that he is going to reveal the "whole truth" about what went down... as long as you subscribe to his OnlyFans.
Earlier today (Wednesday, September 4), DeMayo shared a post on X Twitter with a link to thebeaudemayo.com, saying that it is "the only place you'll hear the whole truth. Thank you for all the love and support."
When you follow that link, it leads to a picture of DeMayo in a Speedo sunning himself, as well as links to his Instagram, Twitter, and OnlyFans accounts.
DeMayo's OnlyFans, which we previously reported in 2022 used to be cost-free and have numerous posts, has been scrubbed, and now has three posts, all of which are hidden behind a $9.99 a month paywall.
"Join me as we discuss my work on X-MEN '97 and other hit series, with behind-the-scenes content into what it's like to be about-and-proud Black artist in Hollywood," the page's description reads.
There are three posts, all of which were posted today, according to their publishing timestamps. While Out is not subscribed, there are text-based previews of the posts. The first says, "Hey everybody! Thank you all so much for your messages! I see the supportive chats in my inbox- I can't wait to respond to them all just yet but I will start working on that ASAP."
A second post repeats what DeMayo said on X, saying, "This is the only place you're gonna hear the WHOLE truth." A third post is simply titled "Out here making it happen."
In August, DeMayo made a statement saying that he had been punished by Marvel for posting some Pride-themed X-Men art sent to him by a fan.
"Above is #XMen fan-art I posted on Instagram for Gay Pride in June. On June 13, #Marvel sent a letter notifying me that they'd stripped my Season 2 credits due to the post. Sadly, this is the latest in a troubling pattern I suffered through while on working on #XMen97 and #Blade."
"I'll have more to say soon but must take a step back from social media to find a safer space for me to be out, proud, and nerdy," he concluded. "Stay tuned."
Shortly after that, rumors started swirling that DeMayo was fired because he allegedly sent photos and videos of himself to people on his staff.
"My client never sent lewd videos and photos to his direct reports. That is a bald faced lie," DeMayo's lawyer said in a statement. "No one who reported Beau to HR received an inappropriate photo or video. That is simply untrue. As a proud gay Black man, Disney knew exactly who he was and what he stood up for. That's why they did not tell him to stop his onlyfans page. They let him be himself which allowed his creativity to thrive. When they objected to his free speech rights and not complying with illegal NDA's a certain person over there tried to replace him because he was becoming more successful than other creators."
On its side, Marvel Studios released a statement saying DeMayo was fired after an internal investigation. "Given the egregious nature of the findings, we severed ties with him immediately and he has no further affiliation with Marvel."
