Bhad Bhabie believes anyone who joined her OnlyFans when she was 18 should be punished.
The rapper, whose real name is Danielle Bregoli, became popular online in 2016 after appearing on the US show Dr. Phil, where she famously said, “cash me outside, how ’bout that?”
Since then, she has built a career as a rapper and is now one of the highest earners on OnlyFans.
At just 18, she started her account and made over $1 million in the first six hours. Her earnings have only grown since then.
In 2022, Forbes ranked her 16th on their list of top creators, estimating she earned $49 million from the site in 2021.
This year, Medium named her the seventh-highest earner on OnlyFans for 2024.
Three years after starting her account, Bhabie talked to Caleb Pressley on his Sundae Conversation podcast about why she joined OnlyFans.
During their chat, Pressley asked if people had signed up on her first day. When she said they did, he asked, “Should they be punished?”
Bhabie replied, “Yeah.”
The rapper has mentioned that it felt “weird” when adults followed her online account while she was only 18.
During a chat with Emily Ratajkowski on her podcast, High Low with Em Rata, she explained, “I was told how to dress for a long time, and it wasn’t my choice.
“I was young. It feels strange, but 18 is still 18.
“That’s how it was labeled, so that’s how it was accepted.
“Do I think it’s totally fine? No. But if people don’t find what they’re looking for here, they’ll look elsewhere,” she said.
She also pointed out that her success on OnlyFans is not typical for everyone.
She added, “It doesn’t work out the same way for everyone. People have come to me and said, ‘I’ll just do it like you.’ And I respond, ‘No, that’s not a good idea.’”
“It depends on the situation.”
