Lil Tay'S Dad On Her Onlyfans Journey: 'She'S Going To Be Successful'

Fatherly Support, But from Afar

Lil Tay, the once-viral child star, is now making headlines for her debut on OnlyFans. At 18, she’s found a rather lucrative path, reportedly earning over a million dollars on her first day. Yet, her father, Chris Hope, while supportive of her independence, has made it clear that he’s not keeping tabs on her content. In a chat with TMZ, Hope expressed his belief in Lil Tay's autonomy, stating, “I am sure she is going to be successful in whatever she decides to do.”

Breaking Records and Raising Eyebrows

On August 3, Lil Tay shared her impressive OnlyFans earnings, raking in a jaw-dropping $1,024,298.09. Her earnings included $511,003.79 from subscriptions, $26,736.19 in tips, and $486,558.11 from messages. In a social media post, she celebrated the milestone: "$1M in 3 hours 🤩We broke the f*** out of that onlyfans record 🥰🥰🥰.”

The Rocky Road to Fame

Lil Tay, who first gained notoriety at just 9 years old with her viral videos, later became known as a rapper, rubbing shoulders with celebrities like Diplo and Jake Paul. However, her journey hasn't been without its bumps. A shocking false announcement about her death, shared on her own Instagram in 2023, sent ripples through her fanbase.

False Alarms and New Beginnings

Following the death hoax, Lil Tay reassured her fans of her and her brother’s safety. "I want to make it clear that my brother and I are safe and alive," she addressed in an emotional statement. She also clarified the misinformation surrounding her identity, correcting her legal name to Tay Tian and not "Claire Hope."
