According to MainlySports, Sophie Rain's earnings reportedly surpass Jayson Tatum's annual salary, a staggering statistic that has many fans talking. As Tatum continues to shine on the court for the Boston Celtics, Rain proves that success can come from unexpected flows in the modern internet age.
Compared to Sophie Rain's $43 million this year, Jayson Tatum made $35 million. Rain's salary is almost 23% more than what the C forward is paid day in and day out for his MVP-caliber performances.
And it's not just Tatum; according to Basketball forever, in 2023, the creators of OnlyFans earned a whopping $6.6 billion, which is more than the combined salaries of every NBA star for the 2023-2024 season. The combined payroll of the players was $4.9 billion.
Rain's post immediately went viral, with nearly 17 million views. The social media user went further and talked about this huge amount of income.
“OnlyFans pays better than Real Madrid,” said one user.
“It would take me two lifetimes to spend this,” another user wrote.
“Just think how much we could achieve if OnlyFans income were taxed like regular income,” said a third user.
