Blac Chyna has had a really spectacular and peculiar profession. A bit of over a decade in the past, she was a stripper in Miami at a membership referred to as King of Diamonds. She rapidly grew to become highly regarded. In style sufficient to earn a name-check in Drake’s music “Miss Me.” The road goes: Somebody inform Maliah I am on hearth, she ought to work tonight… Name up King of Diamonds and inform Chyna it might be definitely worth the flight.”
In 2010, she was employed to be Nicki Minaj‘s stunt double within the Nicki/Kanye West music video for his or her music “Monster.” A 12 months later, she starred in a music video for the rapper Tyga. In 2012, she had Tyga’s child. She and Tyga had been briefly engaged earlier than splitting up in 2014. In 2016, Blac Chyna grew to become engaged to, welcomed a toddler with, and ultimately broke up with Rob Kardashian.
Within the years since, the mannequin/singer/actress, whose delivery title is Angela Renée White, has starred in a number of actuality exhibits, launched a dozen singles, launched a lot of magnificence companies, and even cast an unsuccessful $100 million lawsuit against the Kardashians.
However at the moment, the one factor anybody ever talks about in terms of Ms. Chyna is her OnlyFans earnings. Take it from me. Not every week goes by with out somebody emailing CelebrityNetWorth to ask how Blac Chyna’s net worth can “solely” be $1.5 million, contemplating how a lot she makes from OnlyFans.
I do know why persons are confused. All of it stems from the concept that Blac Chyna at one level supposedly made $20 million PER MONTH acting on OnlyFans. And if she made $20 million per thirty days, that might work out to $240 million PER YEAR. Roughly $120 million after taxes. Far, far, way over $1.5 million, clearly.
In April 2023, Ms. Chyna introduced she was accomplished with OnlyFans. That announcement triggered dozens of (surprisingly respected) retailers to publish articles below headlines which can be all some variation of:
“Blac Chyna Quits OnlyFans After Making $240 Million Per 12 months”
Variations of that headline had been only recently revealed by:
- CinemaBlend
- BuzzFeed Information
- BET
- Perez Hilton
- The NY Submit
- Yahoo Information
- Complicated
If these headlines had been true, it could imply Blac Chyna was BY FAR the highest-paid superstar on the planet. It could suggest that in 2022, she out-earned Lionel Messi by $110 million. LeBron James by $120 million…
The rumor about Blac Chyna’s OF earnings is flying once more this week, and I can not fairly determine why. I feel it may need one thing to do with a TMZ documentary referred to as “The Warfare Over OnlyFans” which premiered earlier this month.
Sadly, the chilly, laborious fact is that Blac Chyna by no means made a fortune off OnlyFans. The $20 million per thirty days “reality” is a galaxy away from her precise month-to-month earnings. And we all know this because of Blac Chyna herself…

The place $20 Million Got here From
In September 2021, a web site referred to as InfluencerMarketingHub.com revealed an infographic that claimed to rank the ten highest-earning folks on OnlyFans. This infographic claimed Blac Chyna was the highest-paid individual on the platform with $20 million in month-to-month earnings. It was an ideal headline. A headline that was repeated 1000’s of occasions throughout the online, all pointing again to this infographic.
The positioning’s methodology was not clear. For his or her information sources, the infographic credited “celebmix.com, brobible.com, and respectmyregion.com.” It additionally stated, “All numbers are estimated as of 2021 and collated by way of numerous media retailers and analysis stories.” In different phrases, this was only a enjoyable, guesstimated infographic pulled collectively from quite a lot of random net sources, whose personal credibility and sources had been questionable.
Should you pull a thread on all of the tales that subsequently claimed Blac Chyna makes $20 million per thirty days from OnlyFans, they will all be traced again to this infographic.
Blac Chyna’s Precise Earnings
Keep in mind that $100 million Kardashian lawsuit I alluded to within the second paragraph of this text? Lengthy story quick, Blac Chyna initially sued the household for defamation in 2017. After some delays, then COVID, the lawsuit did not truly go to trial till April of 2022. She finally misplaced the case, however not earlier than taking the stand over a number of days to offer testimony. In her testimony, Blac Chyna revealed a lot of very fascinating monetary particulars about herself. For instance:
- She didn’t file for a private revenue tax return in 2019, 2020, or 2021.
- She claimed to not have a private checking account.
- She claimed to have made $2 million per 12 months from all sources in 2018, 2019, and 2020.
Most significantly, when requested immediately about her OnlyFans earnings, Blac Chyna revealed the precise whole quantity she had earned from that platform as much as that time. The full quantity?
$1 million
Not $1 million per thirty days. $1 million TOTAL since she started posting on OnlyFans TWO YEARS prior in April 2020. In different phrases, her precise common month-to-month earnings had been…
$41,666
That is nonetheless a formidable quantity… however hopefully you now perceive that $20 million per thirty days is full fiction… until you’re the OWNER OF ONLY FANS!
