Big Brother's Xavier Molyneux refuses to profit off Cameo videos
More than half of the Big Brother Australia 2020 cast are making the most of their newfound fame by charging fans for personalised videos on But it appears Xavier Molyneux is refusing to profit from his ‘young’ audience, and is instead using his new celebrity platform to raise awareness for a good cause.
Sharing a video to his Instagram on Sunday, Xavier began: ‘With my 15 minutes of fame unfortunately coming to an end, I thought what a great opportunity to raise some money for a charity.’

‘Raise focuses on youth wellbeing and mental health. What they do is they get everyday people like you or me, and train them up to be mentors,’ he continued.
Xavier, 23, then requested fans donate $10 towards Raise Foundation, and send him a screenshot and he will reply with a personalised video.
The program provides essential mentoring programs for young people at risk of disengaging and poor wellbeing.
