Tay Tian, the girl the world came to know as Lil Tay for her provocative videos at age 9, recently turned 18 and, without waiting even a week, already had an OnlyFans account open and a screenshot ready to show the world.
The figure she shared on Instagram was exact: $1,024,298.09 in just three hours, split between subscriptions, tips, and private messages. According to her, she surpassed the record held by Bhad Bhabie, who had needed twice as much time to reach a similar figure in 2021.
Behind the number is a more uncomfortable story: a father accused of orchestrating the false announcement of her death in 2023, a brother who managed her image since she was a child, and an entire childhood turned into a spectacle before she could decide anything. Now that she has turned 18, she decided on her own, and social media could not agree on how to feel about it.
