KEY POINTS

  • Bella Thorne’s sister, Kaili, clashed with other OnlyFans creators for saying sex should not be considered work
  • Kaili, an actress, charges her fans $9.99 for racy photos and videos
  • Bella Thorne was also slammed for doing little to destigmatize sex work despite profiting off of adult content

Former Disney star Bella Thorne’s older half-sister, Kaili Thorne, stirred controversy on OnlyFans and social media after claiming that sex work was “not real.”

Kaili recently joined her sibling on the subscription platform and promptly got herself involved in a feud with adult stars on OnlyFans for a comment she left online.

“The argument is that sex should not be work,” the 28-year-old actress said on Tuesday. “That’s why it turns into human trafficking and should be stopped. Sex work does not exist. It is not real.”

Following the intense backlash she received, Kaili told PageSix that her statement was not aimed at sex workers but at women who were commenting on her page.

“I’m saying that since sex is not work to me, I don’t consider it a job to me,” Kaili told the outlet. “I’m not saying it about anyone else. What people do for a living is their choice.”

“I was not calling any sex worker ‘insatiable s – t’ or any other type of s–t. I was directing my comments back to these girls that call themselves that,” she added.

Kaili, who has starred in movies such as “Late Bloomer” and “All The Wrong Places,” charges her fans $9.99 for racy photos and videos.

OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform that allows content creators to charge viewers for exclusive content. The platform was earlier primarily used by sex workers, who claim credit for making it successful.

A number of high-profile celebrities such as Cardi B, Blac Chyna and Tana Mongeau have flocked to OnlyFans as well. These moves got backlash from sex workers, who accused them of stealing their clients.

Earlier, Kaili had attempted to clarify her position on client-poaching with an Instagram Story.

“I’m a creative. I’m stealing your work because you’re not creative. All your bios say the same thing, ‘Insatiable s – t.’ Get creative and maybe you’d keep your clientele,” she said. “My point is, don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

Bella also recently got flak from OnlyFans content creators and adult stars who accused her of stealing their work and profiting off of them while doing little to destigmatize sex work.

Bella apologized and said she joined the platform to normalize the stigmas of sex work.

“Remove the stigma behind sex, sex work, and the negativity that surrounds the word SEX itself by bringing a mainstream face to it that’s what I was trying to do, to help bring more faces to the site to create more revenue for content creators on the site,” Bella said in a tweet.

“I wanted to bring attention to the site, the more people on the site the more likely of a chance to normalize the stigmas, And in trying to do this I hurt you,” she added. “I have risked my career a few times to remove the stigma behind sex work, porn, and the natural hatred people spew… behind anything sex related.”

Bella said she made $2 million from her OnlyFans page less than a week after joining the platform.
