OnlyFans promised to give power back to creators - but most make less than $100 a month while a lucky few earn millions.

When news.com.au journalist James Weir set out to interview Bonnie Blue, the British creator who claimed to have slept with 1,000 men in 12 hours, he expected a story about viral fame. Instead, he uncovered an industry built on fantasy, feuds and inequality that mirrors the gig economy.

From private jets to unpaid rent, Sex, Lies and Streaming exposes the truth behind OnlyFans’ glossiest success stories. With unprecedented access to performers, agents and insiders, Weir follows the money from Australia to a Vegas porn convention and discovers who’s really winning in the world of subscription porn.

What begins as a search for one missing internet star becomes an investigation into the true cost of the x-rated digital goldrush  - where stunts drive headlines, feuds fuel fortunes and the line between performance and reality blurs.
