Schoolies kicks off on the Gold Coast as thousands of teenagers and an OnlyFans model hit the glitter strip

At least 15,000 Aussie school leavers have hit the Gold Coast for Schoolies and some may be greeted by an OnlyFans model who made shock claims about the event last year.

Controversial OnlyFans model star Kay Manuel has been seen on the Gold Coast along with thousands of eager school leavers who are preparing for a week of partying.

She was pictured walking the streets in a PornHub singlet with a short skirt.

Last year, she made headlines when she boasted about sleeping with 75 high school leavers within the first two days at Schoolies. 

Last November, the model also confirmed she was not a biological woman and admitted that she lied to Daily Mail when she denied speculation she was transgender.

Ms Manuel told Daily Mail at the time that she was born a woman, adding that if she was transgender she would not conceal it.

However, just days later, Ms Manuel confirmed she was not a biological woman and that her plans for a Gold Coast sex blitz were just a publicity stunt.

Police have increased their presence, with officers out in force on the Gold Coast, keeping the peace as thousands of youths let their hair down.

‘We’ll be patrolling not only in high visibility uniform, but also in plain clothes and conducting activities which include random breath testing on the entries into schoolies as the schoolies arrive,’ police said.

Queensland Police Service acting chief superintendent Brett Jackson urged parents to remain in contact with their kids as they partied on the glitter strip.

‘Keep an eye on what your kids are doing and let them celebrate the school that they’re leaving behind and the next chapter of their life,’ he said.

Andy Gourley, from Red Frogs, said 550 volunteers would be out and about to support school leavers.

‘We’ve brought in 10,000 pancake shakers and seven tonnes of red frogs, so we’re getting ready to make those pancakes and put out a lot of food this Schoolies,’ he said.

Last year Red Frogs got 8,420 call-outs via its 24/7 hotline (1300 557 123), with 3,000 of them to help partygoers getting home.
