OnlyFans Creator in Hot Water Over Tax Evasion

A Tampa-based OnlyFans creator is finding herself in the legal spotlight, and not for her content. Kylie Leia Perez, who goes by 'Natalie Monroe' on the subscription platform, has been slapped with federal charges for allegedly failing to pay at least $1.6 million in income taxes. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Perez raked in a staggering $5.4 million between 2019 and 2023 from her OnlyFans hustle.

The indictment, filed on July 22, led to her arrest on August 14, as per court records. Prosecutors are throwing the book at her, charging Perez with filing a false return in 2019 and skipping out on massive tax bills over the following years. This isn’t just a small oversight - it’s a multimillion-dollar mess.

Breaking Down the Numbers

The details from the indictment paint a jaw-dropping picture of Perez’s earnings - and her alleged tax dodges. In 2020 alone, she reportedly earned over $1.6 million but failed to pay the $498,549 owed to the IRS. That’s just the start of the financial drama.

The charges continue with claims that in 2021, Perez pocketed $2,130,898 without settling her tax debt. The numbers dip but don’t disappear in 2022 with $1,087,746 earned and still no payment, followed by $602,503 in 2023 with the same story. Year after year, the IRS was allegedly left empty-handed.

“This case sends a loud message to creators in the digital economy - earning big online doesn’t mean you’re off the hook for taxes,” said a legal analyst familiar with influencer cases.

What’s OnlyFans Got to Do With It?

For those not in the know, OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform where creators share exclusive content - think photos, videos, and livestreams - with paying fans. It’s a goldmine for many, with the platform boasting over four million creators who’ve collectively earned more than $20 billion. While often associated with adult content, OnlyFans also hosts creators in fitness, music, art, and beyond.

The indictment doesn’t spill the tea on what kind of content Perez was posting under her 'Natalie Monroe' persona. Whether it’s spicy or strictly PG, the focus here is on the cash - and the taxes she allegedly didn’t pay. As this case unfolds, it’s a stark reminder that even in the creator economy, Uncle Sam wants his cut.
