She made almost £800,000 on her first day alone
The ex-viral star known as Bhad Bhabie has revealed how much she made through adult content subscriptions, and it’s a lot more than you think.
Real name Danielle Bregoli, the social media sensation sent herself to stardom by uttering the six words on Dr. Phil that would change her life forever, ‘Cash me outside, how ’bout that?’
You couldn’t go anywhere back in 2016 without hearing the line, and the then 13-year-old went viral, as her moment became a part of meme culture, later also being made into a rap song of the same name by Bregoli herself.
The 21-year-old announced that she was pregnant with her first child in December 2023, announcing the birth of her daughter in March 2024.
Unlike many other viral stars of our time though, Bregoli built on her initial fam and followed it up with a few songs, to varying success.
Her first single was titled ‘These Heaux’, which earned her a multi-record deal with Atlantic Records, as it surprisingly broke into the Billboard Hot 100.
Bregoli also secured a number of brand deals, a short-living reality TV show with TMZ and most lucratively, she started an OnlyFans account.
Just six days after her 18th birthday in April 2021, after much build-up, she launched her account, making an astounding amount of dosh on her first day alone.

She later revealed exactly how much she made throughout 2021 on the site.
Bregoli took to Instagram to reveal the eye-watering amount she made through OnlyFans subscriptions, revealing through screenshots which appeared to show her earnings from 2021 that she made $18 million (£14 million) in her first month, following an amount of over $1 million (£790,000) on her first day.
However, the 20-year-old made a total of $6.8 million (£5.3 million) in May 2021, with each monthly income steadily declining. Still, it’s a shed load of money either way.
This amounted to a staggering total of $38.6 million (£30 million) from April to November alone.
A monthly subscription to her account sets users back $23.99 (£19), highlighting just how many people went over to subscribe to her NSFW content.

Bregoli was a guest on Emily Ratajkowski’s High Low podcast in 2023, revealing that her OnlyFans earnings saved her from being broke.
She explained: “I wasn’t really thinking much of it at the time, but I was actually broke as f**k before I started OnlyFans. My mom was in control of my money, so she was doing whatever she wanted to do, and I had a $500 limit on my card.”
Talking about the money she earned, she said: “It just kept coming and coming, I was just like, ‘sh*t’.”
Bhad Bhabie also spoke to Rolling Stone, saying that she has more control over her time and her life following her success thus far.
“I’m not gonna give nobody a set time on things,” she said.
“I might wake up one day and go into the studio and make a whole album. I might not do that for the next 10 years. I go about things how I feel.… That’s why I stay to myself so much. I’m trying to learn myself.”
