Talk about making it rain! Sophie Rain just put corporate CEO’s the world over to shame with her outrageous takeaway her first year on OnlyFans. The content creator managed to rake in $43.4 million in just one year! Sophie’s mind-blowing financial success may have been a windfall for her; but the internet had some BIG feelings about it. Unlike some people that rely on underpriced labor overseas to fund their “handmade” Etsy storefronts, Sophie Rain isn’t harming anyone with her work on OnlyFans. Why are people so mad?
Sophie Rain didn’t just wake up one morning and see that she’d earned such a large sum. She’s been tracking her monthly earnings on the adults-only platform, and those earnings? Something close to $4 million per month. Most people would be overjoyed to see $4 million per year, and here she’s bringing in that much money every month! That kind of income puts her well over what most traditional A-listers and CEOs earn with their annual salaries. She’s been pretty transparent each step of the way, openly sharing what she makes as she makes it. That kind of open sharing inspired admiration, and also more than a few visits from the green-eyed monster.
Jealous critics have been quick to label her success as “undeserved,” questioning the value of her work as a content creator. These same critics don’t seem to have the same things to say about male content creators. Why do you think that is? It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with Sophie Rain being a woman who is profiting off of the male gaze on purpose instead of passively. Except that’s exactly the issue at hand here. It would seem that society at large still takes issue with a woman who will turn around and charge the men already staring at her ass for the privilege of continuing to do so.
Also, more than a handful of women have created rage bait content about Sophie Rain for how much money their own boyfriends and husbands have spent on her instead of on them. Look, we’re sorry that you don’t have a group chat telling you to “dump him, sis,” but Sophie isn’t at fault here. But in the age of algorithms that help social media personalities grow by pushing out polarizing content to the masses, keeping Sophie Rain’s name in your mouth only serves to line her pockets.
Corporate America wants for women to sit back and wait to be chosen for work like a good little girl. OnlyFans says “girls, get that cash” by giving full earning— and creative— control over to the content creators whose channels keep subscribers giving the platform fistfuls of their hard-earned cash every month. OnlyFans content creators have full control over when they produce content, when they post content, how they engage with fans, their pricing, and whether or not they’ll create explicit content— because OnlyFans isn’t just porn, y’all. The adults-only platform has done an amazing job of setting up a revolutionary financial model that allows creators to keep most of their earnings, as opposed to other industry leaders that skim quite a large chunk of change off of their talent before paying them. Looking at you, Hollywood. With OnlyFans there are no gatekeepers preventing those who work there from getting paid; and that actually might be what most critics hate most at the end of the day.
Of course, they also might just be jealous that women have found a way to profit off of the commodification of their bodies that is already going to happen regardless of whether or not they charge $19.99/month for subscription access to the goods. In other words: People are going to stare at your ass like it’s a Monet, so you may as well put it in the Louvre and charge admission. Who’s to say, really? But, Sophie Rain’s success does point towards a shift in the general population valuing creative entrepreneurship over the status quo of waiting around for someone to tell you when you can work and what they’ll pay you to do so.
Whatever your feelings on Sophie Rain and her new net worth, she honestly doesn’t care. When you earn $43.3 million dollars during your first year on the job, you get to laugh all the way to the bank, and maybe hope that jealous Janice takes notes.
