Talk about creepy! Erin Molan shares bizarre social media request
Sports presenter Erin Molan has definitely received her fair share of odd message requests on social media, however this bizarre series of requests have undoubtedly taken the cake for “most creepy”.
The Channel 9 star took to Twitter to share a series of obsessive, relentless and cringe-worthy messages spanning over a number of years.
The admirer appeared to have an intense foot fetish and was persistent in messaging Molan about her feet.
Dating back to September 2018, Molan shared the messages which read: “You have such beautiful toes!”
“Can I buy feet pics?”
“How much $$ for feet pics?”
Molan was able to see the humour in the messages, captioning the post, “Anyone know current going rate for feet pics? Asking for a friend …”
Sydney FC Footballer and Greater Western Sydney player Ellie Brush admitted she too had received “these messages as well,” along with Journalist Melinda Farrell who confirms she too has gotten requests from men online for feet pics.
“I was telling friends about this! I’ve had loads of foot fetish guys in my mentions over the past few years. I never knew it was such a big thing,” she tweeted.
Foot fetishism is also known as podophilia and is an oddly common obsession.
Molan is a central member of Nine’s Wide World of Sports, who has covered the Australian Open, NRL Premiership and Fast5 Netball World Series.
