Bonnie blue 1000 men and me

I watched last night (don’t ask me why) I wish I didn’t. Woke up feeling dirty. Pure greed is where her motivation comes from. ‘Bonnie’ aka Tia boasted throughout she is a multi millionaire, where she started making £50k/month and went up to £2m/month before OF shut her account down. Now she’s back to making £600k/month on her new site, selling her body. The men queing up for her 1000 men stunt were just arriving from the street, no one had vetted them and the ones who were on show looked far too old for her and frankly, disgusting in old tracksuit bottoms and huge beer bellies. I’m so concerned by the internet. The young women on the show were ‘Only Fans creators’ and were 18-21, seemed nervous, shy and about to film a porn scene with Bonnie, completely for free but by Bonnie tagging them they would be earning money through new subscribers. These young girls, like Bonnie were stating it’s better than sitting behind a desk.

AIBU to wake up feeling anxious, disgusted, concerned with the damage and short cut to money Only Fans is creating for young women.

I’m more annoyed with the male-driven system that has created an environment in which the most valuable work for a woman is to prostitute herself.

ExtraOnions · 31/07/2025 10:42

I’m not going to watch it, but I do question the finances that are quoted.

“made a million pounds from that stunt” - from whom? Is it actually real money.. is any of it real money ? I’ve no doubt she’s made some money, I just don’t believe the numbers quoted.

Porn is free .. so not sure where all this money is from.

She’ll end up like a lot of people on that industry broke .. in all ways.

Mydahliasareshit · 31/07/2025 10:42

Maybe she's made it clear to her parents she won't 'look after them' if they don't support her, so they toe the line. I haven't watched it. Are they very hard up?

MsPug · 31/07/2025 10:43

would any of these men say Bonnie has a great job? Would they say to their daughters you go girl look at Bonnie you could be just like her?

W0tnow · 31/07/2025 10:45

The most revolting aspect of this for me is the men. One woman is prepared to be involved in such a degrading spectacle. Clearly 1000’s of men are. Yech.

Totally agree Grim

Oasisagiger · 31/07/2025 10:47

Thankfully I think the majority of women wouldn’t stoop to such low standards to earn money. Most women value their respect more than the lifestyle (I imagine and hope!) I couldn’t think of anything worse than sleeping with 1000 men for money, can you imagine the state of some of them 🤢 No amount of money could get me to do that!

On the other hand, it’s her life and as grim as I find it, if she’s made peace with shagging anything and everything then errr good luck to her I suppose buys it’s a no from me.

I think regret will come later down the line when she’s older and if she has kids. Imagine your kids finding out this, dear me. I would imagine any future relationships with men will be tarred as well, as most men wouldn’t be able to get over her lifestyle choice.

HausofHolbein · 31/07/2025 10:48

Even if she has made multi-millions, she can't leave the house on her own. (BB said in the documentary she lives in fear of acid attacks from 'jealous women.')

She appeared to live an isolated life, entirely focused on self-promotion and money. Whilst she is entirely free to do so, she acknowledges that her actions have consequences. Whilst I wish her no harm, I do worry that all of this will catch up with her, either mentally or physically.

TempestTost · 31/07/2025 10:48

I don't know that it's trauma. To me she seems like a sociopath, entirely unbothered. She would like to be rich and she is achieving that.

What does bother me is that mainstream media is giving this space because I think the effect of porn on our culture is massively negative.

HelloHattie · 31/07/2025 10:51

I’ve just read about her latest stunt with the bath

I really think she should be arrested for gross indecency. It’s gross and indecent.

NamefromNowhere · 31/07/2025 10:57

She is doing untold damage to her body.
I listened to a podcast with her being interviewed (Liam Tuffs I think) and she mentioned that she first had sex at 13 years old, but didn't seem to think that was anything out of the ordinary.
She is also obliterating her mental wellbeing and future, though she no doubt doesn't think about that now.
And her family should hang their heads in shame for their support for this. They should support her to stop.
I honestly don't think that anyone who does this is mentally healthy.

JMSA · 31/07/2025 10:58

I’m sick hearing about this daft bint.

Interesting, I’d never heard of her but read this article in the Guardian about it and do plan to watch it now out of interest. But the writer also concluded that she could well be sociopathic, and said that certainly Bonnie herself absolutely denies any trauma and does seem to be very much happy with the situation, totally in control and primarily in it for the money (with a side order of fame perhaps plus a bit of revelling in her power over men - I couldn’t believe the way she spoke about these men’s wives and girlfriends!). I can kind of see how this role might well really suit a sociopath in many ways TBH. I feel weird about it because I don’t actually massively object to her doing this if she really wants to, it’s her life and it seems to work for her, and so what has it got to do with me. And she’s right that I would agree feminism is about women being able to make their own choices in life and in particular around their sexuality. But I personally feel it’s hugely immoral and degrading and as a pp has said I just hate that this is where feminism seems to have led us, that the most reliable way to earn well as a woman in this day and age is still to be a prostitute basically. Something seems very wrong with that!

This! Exactly!

JHound · 31/07/2025 11:08

I would prefer to watch a documentary on the kind of men that line up to take part and pay for her content.

There's always a level of an abusive background, mental health issues etc. Katie Price is a complex situation, fuelled by her wanting a family, but not being able to get it, for a variety of reasons. If you object to what they are doing, don't add to their audience. As for young women seeking fame and fortune, Henry viii wouldn't have had a further seven wives and lots of mistresses, if it hasn't always been that way.

He had six wives total. And I am not sure those women wanted “fame”.

Solely in that era the only good career path a available to women was to “marry well”.

Tatty247 · 31/07/2025 11:11

Bonnie says she had sex at 13 and so was probably watching porn before that. I can't quite tell if it's bs, just trying to normalise porn by suggesting everyone watches porn before they have sex - even when they have sex at a very young age - or if porn has been normalised so much to her that she assumes she was watching it at that age even though she wasn't - or if she was genuinely was somehow accessing porn from 12/13 year old. I also wonder who she was having sex with at 13.

I agree that Bonnie probably has sociopathic and/or narcissistic tendencies, she says herself that she was always different and can easily shut off her emotions. She doesn't care about anyone but herself and making money. People are useful to her - or they're not. But personality disorders also tend to stem from trauma, so I would imagine there's something there even if she doesn't recognise it herself as trauma.

I also watched this. It was awful. However (and very surprisingly) I found myself sort of agreeing with her when she said that she didn't think she was putting feminism back but rather was taking control of her sexuality. Whilst she has clearly taken this too far, I do believe she is control and more fool the sad men who fall for it. She has become very rich.

The section with the young "creators" (hate that word) was so desperately uncomfortable viewing. It's one thing for her to decide that's how she wants to make money but that really felt like exploitation.

What's it got to do with 'sexuality'

She was an orifice to be used (and abused)

BreezyPeachGoose · 31/07/2025 11:13

I'm just watching it now...

It'll be interesting to see her opinion in 20 years time (aged 45), and if it's changed.

She's treading a really thin line visiting universities and actively targeting "barely legal" teen virgins. She is ok with being only a few hours away from being a paedophile.

Smallchangebigstep · 31/07/2025 09:26

I was annoyed to actually get an email from Channel 4 promoting this programme. I deleted it without reading it.
And I'm even more irritated by yet another MN thread about this prostitute.
How on earth did you expect to feel after watching it?
Why keep giving her the publicity she thrives on?

Why give her head space?

Can you not think of a single reason why a (presumably) woman posting on a parenting website might be giving this 'headspace'?

The fact that this woman's activities are brought into the mainstream is normalising porn and young people are only going to be worse off for it. It really upsets me that girls are subjected to these unrealistic expectations about sex. And boys too.

Even if you aren't a parent the effect on society is terrifying. Ignoring it won't make it go away.

DinaGoth · 31/07/2025 11:20

She mostly seems to lie for attention.

Her massive gangbang stunt was impossible. That would be an average of something like 40 seconds per man without bathroom breaks.

She is lying about how much money she earns.

Her entire MO is outrageous lies for publicity. Stop giving it to her.

Yes, I have actually wondered this. OF banned the video/ all content relating to it, as it broke their guidelines. I don’t have any social media but presume content on IG and FB there is free to view?

So where are these millions from? She’s on a different platform now, but the 2mil in the first few months 🤷‍♀️

ChuckGarabedian · 31/07/2025 11:21

I haven’t watched the doc but read an article about it the other day. It mentioned BB said something along the lines of “if your girl says she’s on her period, remember there’s nothing wrong with her throat.” What a piece of shit. It’s like something from an incel forum.
As for that line of work being better than “sitting behind a desk” - hard disagree.
Why not pay the young women who were taking part in the doc too? It’s not like she doesn’t have the money!

oldwhyno · 31/07/2025 11:22

She was on the front of the Times colour supplement this weekend. And on Lorraine this week. It's disgusting how much promotion she's getting from mainstream media.

No. Your instincts are absolutely correct. It's dreadful that we have normalised such utterly disturbing behaviour. The Internet is distorting all sorts of things. Can you imagine 40 years ago if a girl in a house somewhere had sex with a 1000 filthy men off the street that the police wouldn't have been called and everyone taken into custody. And it would have been in all the papers being shown up as the psychologically disturbed behaviour it truly is. But somehow because it's the Internet it suddenly becomes all right. People really need to wake up.
