While some predicted the OnlyFans bubble might burst post-pandemic, we've only seen it boom as even bigger names like Bella Throne, Blac Chyna, and Bhad Bhabie top the charts as some of the platform's most lucrative earners.
Whereas Bonnie Blue has made a name for herself in the X-rated industry, a lot of major OnlyFans stars have made bank without losing a stitch of clothing. At a time when countries are clamping down on pornography and age verification, there continues to be a major debate about how we define content creation. It wasn't long ago that Twitch was grappling with its infamous 'hot tub meta', while former Twitch beau Kaitlyn "Amouranth" Siragusa boasted in 2025 about how she makes $2 million a month from streaming herself sleeping.
Stories of OnlyFans models flexing their bank balances are nothing new, and only recently, the divisive Lil Tay was breaking records with her earnings. This also isn’t Sophie Rain's first time trying to break the internet by sharing her OnlyFans dollar, nor is it the first time someone has claimed she might be exaggerating her takings.

Still, the 20-year-old has left jaws on the floor by sharing her updated OnlyFans wage. The content creator sat down with David Dobrik and suggested her earnings over the past 19 months have seen her match LeBron James' own financials.
Despite her young age, Rain told Dobrik, "I almost made more than LeBron last year. He made $56 million, I made $43 [million]."
In reality, her earnings from the past 19 months are much higher, with Dobrik verifying via her OnlyFans that she's made $82 million.
Rain said: "No one believes me. but it is very true."

While it's an impressive haul, Rain admits she's anxious about having made so much money: "I’m just so nervous. I’m paranoid. ‘Cause all of this could disappear tomorrow."

A clearly stunned Dobrik replied: "Okay. $82 million doesn’t disappear tomorrow."
Since starting her OnlyFans in May 2023, Rain has managed to keep her platform pretty PG. Speaking to Fox News Digital in March 2025, she explained: "You have got to have morals or else you're going to get lost in the industry. That's just what happens.
"It's really easy to listen to what someone else says and listen to them and try to follow what they do, but you have got to stay true to yourself."
Reiterating that she doesn't like being labelled a 'porn star', Rain continued: "I'm still a virgin. I keep my content on OnlyFans very reserved, and you can still make money from doing all of these things."

As for what she thinks has kept her on the straight and narrow, she concluded: "I’m very strong. I have a very close relationship with my church, and I love God. I believe that he will forgive your sins for anything, and I think that he’s happy that I’m successful.”
To be honest, Sophie, if we had that kind of money, we'd be sailing around Hawaii in a superyacht.
