Lil Tay has marked her ascent into adulthood by controversially launching an OnlyFans account.
Mere hours after her 'link in bio' went live, the social media star, 18, claimed to have raked in a huge amount of cash on the X-rated site.
She boasted that she 'broke the f**k out of' previous records set by celebrities such as Bella Thorne and Bhad Bhabie when they previously made their OnlyFans debuts.
According to Lil Tay - who's real name is Claire Hope, although she also goes by Tay Tian - she blew them both out of the water.

In an Instagram post celebrating her windfall which she shared on Monday (4 August), the teen rapper wrote: "Not bad for 3 hours."
But many of her followers have called her debut on the adult content platform 'sad as hell' and 'disgusting' for one particular reason.
Who is Lil Tay?

Lil Tay claimed to be nine years old when she first shot to online fame in 2018 while dubbing herself the 'youngest flexer of the century' - posting videos bragging about her alleged wealth.

For instance, one early video saw her get into a red Mercedez Benz she claimed to own, though her feet were too short to reach the peddles, boasting: "This s**t cost me 200,000. I’m only 9 years old. I ain’t got no license, but I still drive this sports car b**ch. Your favorite rapper ain’t doing it like Lil Tay."
But considering she claimed to be nine in 2018 and 18 now, it doesn't take a genius to work out that this maths doesn't add up.
So, it seems she might have duped the world about her age all those years ago...or addition just really isn't her strong suit.
How much has Lil Tay made from OnlyFans?
The viral star - was left 'traumatised' after a death hoax in 2023 - offered a breakdown of her earnings from the first three hours, which stated that she had made a respectable $511,003 from subscriptions.

Another $26,736 came from tips, while Lil Tay netted $486,558 from private messages she has shared with fans.
In total, that came to a whopping $1,024,298.
In another post shared to TikTok, she bragged about the $1 million she had made 'in a couple hours', saying: "I'm still the youngest one doing it.
"For all the grown a*s haters, who've been hating since I was nine years old, look at me now! What y'all got to say?"
"Y'all been doubting me for seven years," she continued. "You can hate on me all you want, you can't say Lil Tay ain't winning. So for everybody out there, do whatever the hell you want with your life.

"Who gives a f**k what people have to say? And remember this - Lil Tay rich and finna get richer! Oh yeah, and thank you to all my supporters who pre-ordered since 2018, or whenever you did."
Why is Lil Tay's OnlyFans debut so controversial?

Lil Tay explained the content which she has shared so far on OnlyFans was all taken at 12.01am on her 18th birthday, which took place last Tuesday (29 July).
So although that therefore fits the bill of 'adult content' as she was of age when the clips and pictures were taken, people still think it's pretty weird as she was 'underage' this time last week.

Lil Tay then added more fuel to the fire by bizarrely describing herself as 'freshly 18' in her OnlyFans bio, which also states: "Please don't tell my mom."
She goes on to invite subscribers to 'come see her in her birthday suits' for a fee of $19.99 per month, while adding that she is 'replying to all DMs' in a further bid to entice people to sign up to her platform.
All OnlyFans creators are required to be 18 or older, as is anyone who wants to 'access or view content' on the adult site.
In a TikTok video publicising her platform before it was launched, Lil Tay told her 2.3 million followers that she was 'dropping the youngest link of the century'.
"Mark your calendars," she told fans. "And nobody, including my family, including the grown a*s haters, is going to stop me. You know why - Lil Tay rich and finna get richer...b*tch!"

Although she's clearly chuffed to bits with the amount she's already earned on OnlyFans, the same can't be said for a lot of social media users, who reckon her joining the platform is downright creepy seen as though we were first introduced to her when she was just a kid.
One person commented: "That’s actually sad as hell. She JUST turned 18."
Another said: "We saw this girl grow up, what the hell is wrong with people?"
A third added: "I hope she's just tricking these people cuzzz whattt."
A fourth wrote: "This generation is cooked."
And a fifth chimed in: "Whoever subs you guys are disgusting!!! Fr fr."
Others praised her for cashing in on her online stardom, while some speculated that she might actually be keeping it PG on her OnlyFans.
