Danielle Bregoli, also known as Bhad Bhabie, has come a long way since she went viral for her appearance on Dr. Phil in 2016. The then 13-year-old’s iconic “Catch me outside, how ‘bout that?” statement was seen by millions, and unlike some viral sensations that flame out quickly, Bregoli has managed to hang on to fame over the years.
And now, she’s managed to turn that notoriety into cold hard cash with her OnlyFans account. The 21-year-old recently revealed how much she’s made from the subscription-based platform since joining just after her 18th birthday. During a livestream with Twitch star DDG, she shared that her net profits from that platform alone had cleared $75 million.
DDG seemed shocked with disbelief as she shared those numbers.
“Fuck, damn,” was his reply, before asking what she did with all that money she’d earned.
She answered: “I got properties, cars, all that type of shit.”
And that seems to be true, as Bregoli reportedly purchased a new mansion in Los Angeles for $5.3 million. It seems she’s doing well with all that money, and viewers of the livestream agree, leaving comments like: “Bhad Bhabie just turned her fan base into a financial powerhouse without even needing a degree,” one fan quipped, as another chimed in: “She made more bread than I can ever save in YEARS into a savings account, good golly.”
It’s been nearly a year since the last time she shared her earnings. In July of 2024, the young mother (yes, she gave birth to her daughter a year ago) revealed she had netted over $57 million from OnlyFans.
Those numbers put her in the top of the top of OnlyFans creators. While not all creators reveal their earnings, based on the ones that have, Bregoli’s astronomical numbers are more than rivals like YouTuber Corinna Kopf, 29, who claims to have made $67 million in three years on the platform, and TikToker Sophie Rain, 21, who recently claims to have hit $50 million in net profits since joining OnlyFans in late 2023.
If these numbers seem too good to be true, you’re not wrong. While a handful of OnlyFans creators make millions on the platform, they are in the minority. As in, the top 1% minority.
The mean average income per creator is less than $1,300 a year — or about $108 a month. Not exactly the lucrative career many people think it will be. The truth is, the only people making significant sums of money on the platform are those have built a following somewhere else first. That could be TikTok, YouTube, traditional media — or going viral on a Dr. Phil show like Bergoli.
