Sophie Rain explains the surprising real reason she makes so much money on OnlyFans

Sophie Rain has shared her thoughts on why she's so successful on OnlyFans.

Originally created as a subscription based site allowing musicians, athletes and influencers to create 'paid for' content, the platform is now synonymous with adult content creators and pornography.

Which may not be the original look the creators of OnlyFans were going for, but it's certainly made a lot of people very rich.

One of those people is 20-year-old Sophie Rain, who previously claimed to have pocketed $82 million (£60 million) after 18 months on the platform.

Which is more than most of us will ever make in our lives.

So, how has she managed to be so successful in such a short space of time? According to Rain, it's all down to hard work and firm boundaries.

"I don't show much, I'm a virgin still, I don't do porn on my site," she explained in a recent interview with TMZ.

"So when people say that I'm like you don't know the full story because I have boundaries and I don't cross that line and that's why I get so far and that's why I'm where I am today.

"I love what I do."

The content creator went on to credit her decision to stick to her boundaries as a reason she's been able to make so much money, adding: "I work hard, I don't stop and I know who I am and I'm proud of myself.

"You have to stay true to yourself because that's discipline at the end of the day and that's what gets you far."

Who is OnlyFans star Sophie Rain?

Influencer and internet personality Rain first gained notoriety after going viral on TikTok in late 2024 by sharing her impressive OnlyFans earnings.

According to Rain, she created the account after losing her job as a waitress and has since been able to build a platform of three million followers on X and eight million on Instagram.

She has also spoken regularly about her Christian faith, revealing to PEOPLE that she still attends services at her home church in Tampa, Florida.

She also created the Bop House, a TikTok and OnlyFans content house which Rain and other creators live and work in.

Meanwhile, Rain has also weighed in on claims made by fellow content creator Lil Tay who suggested she'd made $15 million (£11 million) since joining the platform, casting doubt on the 18-year-old's ability to make that much money in a short amount of time.
