Hey, darlings, let’s chat about Blac Chyna - aka Angela Renée White - whose career is the kind of rollercoaster that keeps us glued to the gossip. Over a decade ago, she was turning heads as a stripper at Miami’s iconic King of Diamonds club, so popular that Drake gave her a shout-out in his track “Miss Me.” That line about calling up Chyna for a flight-worthy night? Pure fire.
Her star only rose from there. In 2010, she doubled for Nicki Minaj in the “Monster” video with Kanye West. By 2011, she was starring in Tyga’s music video, and a year later, they welcomed a baby together. Though their engagement fizzled out by 2014, Chyna wasn’t done with high-profile romances - enter Rob Kardashian in 2016, with another child and a whirlwind engagement that eventually ended. Talk about a life in the fast lane!
Since then, our girl has been everywhere: reality TV, dropping singles, launching beauty brands, and even taking on the Kardashians in a $100 million lawsuit (spoiler: it didn’t pan out). But lately, all anyone can talk about is her supposed OnlyFans fortune. So, let’s get flirty with the facts and figure out what’s really going on with her bank account.
Okay, babes, buckle up because the internet has been buzzing with wild claims about Blac Chyna’s OnlyFans earnings. The rumor? That she was pulling in a staggering $20 million *per month* on the platform, which adds up to a mind-blowing $240 million a year. That’s after-tax numbers that would make even the biggest celebs blush!
This juicy tidbit has been splashed across headlines from outlets like CinemaBlend, BuzzFeed News, BET, Perez Hilton, The NY Post, Yahoo News, and Complex. When Chyna announced her exit from OnlyFans in April 2023, articles screamed variations of “Blac Chyna Quits OnlyFans After Making $240 Million Per Year.” If true, she’d be out-earning soccer legend Lionel Messi by $110 million and NBA icon LeBron James by $120 million in 2022. Insane, right?
But here’s where I wink at you and whisper: something doesn’t add up. The rumor flared up again recently, possibly tied to a TMZ documentary, “The War Over OnlyFans,” which dropped earlier this month. So, where did this $20 million figure even come from? Let’s dig deeper.
“I can’t believe people thought I was making $20 million a month - the truth is way different, but I’m still proud of what I’ve built!” - Blac Chyna (paraphrased reflection on her career and earnings)
Let’s play detective, shall we? Back in September 2021, a site called InfluencerMarketingHub.com dropped an infographic claiming to list the top 10 OnlyFans earners. At the top? Blac Chyna, allegedly banking $20 million monthly. It was the kind of headline that spreads like wildfire, reposted thousands of times across the web, all tracing back to this single graphic.
Now, here’s the tea: the site’s methodology was sketchy at best. They cited sources like celebmix.com, brobible.com, and respectmyregion.com, with a vague note that numbers were “estimated as of 2021” from “various media outlets and research reports.” Translation? This was a fun, speculative list cobbled together from random corners of the internet with zero hard proof. Cute, but hardly credible.
Every story claiming Chyna’s massive monthly haul can be linked to this infographic. No receipts, no real data - just a viral guess that got way out of hand. So, what’s the real story behind her earnings? Let’s get to the good stuff.
Hold onto your hats, loves, because the truth came out in a courtroom of all places. Remember that $100 million lawsuit against the Kardashians for defamation, filed in 2017? After delays (thanks, COVID), it finally hit trial in April 2022. Chyna didn’t win, but her testimony spilled some *serious* financial tea.
Under oath, she admitted to not filing personal income tax returns for 2019, 2020, or 2021, and even claimed she didn’t have a personal bank account. She also revealed earning about $2 million annually from all sources in 2018, 2019, and 2020. But the real bombshell? Her OnlyFans earnings.
When asked point-blank, Chyna confirmed her total haul from OnlyFans - since starting in April 2020 - was just $1 million. Not per month, not per year, but *total* over two years. Break that down, and her average monthly earnings were a still-impressive but far-from-mythical $41,666. So, let’s kiss that $20 million-a-month fantasy goodbye - unless you’re the owner of OnlyFans itself!
So, why does this $240 million myth keep resurfacing? Well, sweetie, it’s the perfect storm of a clickable headline and a star like Blac Chyna, who’s always in the spotlight. That infographic gave gossip sites and fans something juicy to latch onto, and once a number like that hits the internet, it’s nearly impossible to scrub clean.
Even with her own testimony setting the record straight, the allure of “Blac Chyna, OnlyFans Queen” is just too tempting. Plus, with recent buzz from things like the TMZ doc, old rumors get a fresh coat of paint. It’s a reminder that not everything you read online is gospel - sometimes, it’s just glitter and guesswork.
At the end of the day, Chyna’s real earnings are still something to celebrate. A million bucks over two years isn’t pocket change, and her hustle - from Miami clubs to reality TV and beyond - is pure inspiration. So, let’s give her the props she deserves, without the inflated hype. What do you think - are you surprised by the real numbers?
