Despite raking in nearly $80 million on OnlyFans, the ever-ambitious Sophie Rain isn't resting on her laurels. The OnlyFans sensation recently spilled the beans on her grand plans to outpace none other than NBA icon LeBron James in earnings.
Rain joined Aishah Sofey, Summer Iris, Alina Rose, and Ava on an episode of the Bangin’ Out podcast that aired on August 13, where she opened up about her financial aspirations. When podcast host Jacob Sartorius asked if she truly made $43 million last year, Rain confirmed with a laugh, "but I’m taxed out my a**."
“Next year you got him,” Ava quipped, and Rain agreed, replying, “Yea, next year.”
The podcast team dived into a comparison between Rain's income and that of professional athletes, quickly landing on LeBron James as a benchmark. James reportedly earned $52.6 million in 2025 from his Los Angeles Lakers contract, just shy of $10 million more than Rain. The surprising revelation left the hosts and Rain in awe, with Rain joking that LeBron "barely" outpaced her.
Rain, only 20 years old, revealed her all-time earnings are around $76 million, backing it up with a tweet showcasing her OnlyFans earnings. She made it clear that such financial success doesn't come easy, emphasizing the sacrifices and mental toll involved.
A self-proclaimed devout Christian and virgin, Rain addressed the misconceptions surrounding her OnlyFans content. "Essentially, there’s just this big misconception on OnlyFans that you are labeled as a porn star, but I’m still a virgin," she stated. Rain maintains her content is reserved, proving one can achieve financial success without compromising personal values.
While Rain isn't tempted to push boundaries for more income, surpassing James might require exploring new ventures. After all, his $52.6 million from the NBA doesn't even account for endorsement deals or other income streams.
But don't worry about Rain. After parting ways with the Bop House earlier this year amid reported drama, she's got her eyes set on even bigger plans for the future.
