Former Child Star Piper Rockelle, 18, Earns $2.9 Million in Just One Day Following OnlyFans Launch

Piper Rockelle, an 18-year-old social media sensation, has officially launched her OnlyFans account, igniting conversations across the internet.

After a month of hints and teasers, she unveiled the link to her account at midnight on January 1, a move that has drawn significant attention given the platform's reputation for adult content.

Shortly after her launch, Rockelle posted a screenshot on X showing her earnings from just one day on the platform, claiming an impressive total of over $2.9 million.

“my first day! forever grateful 💖,” she expressed in her post, reflecting on the unexpected success.

In response to a comment suggesting that her earnings were indicative of societal issues, Rockelle replied with a sense of disbelief: “never in a million years did I expect this to happen, you guys changed my life 🥹.”

Rockelle's rise to fame began nearly a decade ago when her mother started posting videos on YouTube. Over time, she built a substantial following and collaborated with other influencers in a group known as the “Piper Squad.”

However, the Piper Squad faced controversy in 2022 when eleven teen influencers filed a lawsuit against Rockelle’s mother, alleging they were not compensated for their work and experienced “inappropriate, offensive and abusive treatment.” Rockelle's mother denied these claims, and the lawsuit was settled in October 2024 for nearly $2 million, with no admission of liability from either party.

The Netflix docuseries "Bad Influence: The Dark Side of Kidfluencing," which premiered in April, also highlighted the allegations against Rockelle’s mother, featuring testimonies from parents of other squad members.

In an interview following the docuseries release, Rockelle defended her mother, stating that the squad members had “extended the truth” regarding their experiences. “I was there. I witnessed every day,” she asserted. “I think that they believe what they are saying, but I was there and I saw everything.”

Rockelle made headlines again in February 2025 when she visited the Bop House, a collective known for producing OnlyFans content. Her involvement as a minor sparked criticism; however, she expressed gratitude for the collaboration opportunity. “I had the best time of my life,” she reiterated in a later interview.

On December 16, Rockelle confirmed her official membership with the Bop House via TikTok.

Prior to launching her OnlyFans account, Rockelle had shared her thoughts on the possibility during an interview with Teen Vogue on August 21, coinciding with her 18th birthday. “It’s nobody’s decision but mine,” she stated at the time, emphasizing her autonomy in making such choices about her life.
