DANCING on Ice star John Barrowman has been raking in £150-a-time from messages for fans this week despite being accused of flashing at colleagues on Doctor Who.
The 54-year-old star has earned thousands of pounds since joining the shout-out platform Cameo.
The telly judge charges £150 and has more than 605 glowing reviews from satisfied customers.
And more than 20 people have left him five-star rated testimonials since his on-set exposure scandal was revealed.
But typically, only a quarter of people leave a review on the site – meaning his earnings could be more than £300,000.
However, last night his profile on the site was suspended with fans told: “Notfiy me when available.”
He’s one of the highest-rated stars on the platform thanks to his five-star reviews from fans.
The celeb has been knocking out several 30-second shout-outs a day to earn the extra cash.
One person revealed this week: “Five stars are not enough. What could be better than this? I was so happy that I started to run. I don’t know how to express how touched I am. Thank you John.”
Another said on Tuesday: “I thought it was absolutely awesome how personalized, unique, and in-depth it was! Definitely worth the money and my mom was so surprised and excited when she saw the video. Thank you so much to John Barrowman for making this happen. – Ethan”
And another happy customer said: “Absolutely wonderful! John could have just said Happy Birthday but he went above and beyond with this wonderful message.”
The actor has apologised for his behaviour following claims he exposed himself to colleagues on Doctor Who.
The TV star, 54, said his “high-spirited” conduct was “only ever intended in “good humour” to entertain co-workers on set.
John was the subject of accusations about his time working on the flagship BBC show after a video emerged of his former co-star Noel Clarke, 45, joking about it.
The 2015 clip shows the actor imitating Barrowman taking “his d*** out every five minutes” and “hitting it on everything”.
John – who played Captain Jack Harkness from 2005 – told The Guardian: “With the benefit of hindsight, I understand that upset may have been caused by my exuberant behaviour and I have apologised for this previously.”
The Glasgow-born star also admitted to “tomfoolery” while working on Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood.
Witnesses said the alleged incidents were inappropriate pranks rather than sexual behaviour.
He also said he was not made aware of allegations against Noel Clarke, who faces claims of sex harassment, groping and bullying from 20 women.
Clarke played Mickey Smith in Doctor Who from 2005 to 2010.
Sky, ITV and the BBC said they have cut ties with the actor. Noel has denied allegations of sexual misconduct or criminal behaviour but said he will seek professional help and apologised “deeply” for his actions.

“Robust processes are in place to ensure any complaints or concerns are handled with the utmost seriousness and care.”
