Piper Rockelle has never been able to escape the spotlight, and she doesn’t want to anytime soon.
However she would like to set the record straight as she faces criticism for joining OnlyFans, a subscription-based adult content site. On Jan. 1, the-YouTube-child-star-turned influencer, who recently turned 18, made nearly $3 million in her first day on the platform, according to her management team, Ruthless Media Partners.
Joining the adult platform is not a decision she came to lightly, Rockelle says, and she knows her impressionable fan base may be influenced by her choices. It's a risk that weighs on her, she says.
Rockelle, in part, made the move in an effort to take control of her story. She's sick of commenters dissecting the snippets of her life they see online − and she wants her young fans and critics alike to know that's all they're really seeing. Snippets.
Zooming in from a high rise apartment in Los Angeles, she wears a shirt that says “Hating Me Won’t Make You Pretty.” Rockelle isn't at home. She's at one of the vacation rentals she utilizes to make content − a frequent occurrence these days.
