'TOXIC' TREND
Inside the horrifying rise of ‘predatory women’ like Bonnie Blue who make millions by filming sex with teenage boys
While many have dubbed her behaviour 'predatory', Bonnie Blue says her 'student sex tours' are educational...
WITH her flawless makeup and Love Island-esque looks, Bonnie Blue has amassed an impressive social media following - but it's not her blonde hair and piercing blue eyes garnering all that attention.
Shockingly Bonnie, 25, has built up her huge fanbase and accrued millions of views by engaging in highly controversial sex marathons with ‘barely legal’ students - many of them eager for her to take their virginity.

She has had sex with as many as 158 men in just two weeks after posting ‘bonk me for free’ adverts at university freshers’ events, creating a queue of students outside her hotel room door, all keen to take up her offer.
The well-spoken influencer - real name Tia Billinger - grew up in a small Derbyshire village and formerly worked in recruitment.
But the controversial social media star is now worth £3million and makes up to £350,000 a month posting the footage on her OnlyFans account, where subscribers pay to watch her have sex with a conveyor belt of strangers.
And we can reveal that disturbingly, the sex challenges are now being copied by other women seemingly happy to trade their bodies for likes on social media in a horrifying trend.

'I want to do their dads as well'
A Sun probe has found that at least three more women in their 20s have started taking part in similar sex marathons and are promoting the footage on websites including TikTok and Instagram.
Last month, Lily Phillips, 23, from Derbyshire, claimed to have had sex with 101 men in 14 hours at an Airbnb - and she received over one million views when she posted the footage online.
Lily said the youngest man she slept with was 18 and the oldest was in his 60s.
Insisting she didn’t complete the feat for money alone, she said: “I didn’t need to sleep with 101 random men, I did that out of enjoyment.”

Bonnie, from Nottinghamshire, had previously opted not to make her real name public and it's little wonder, given the furious backlash she received after bragging about sleeping with teenagers - and their married dads and grandfathers.
Appearing on the popular Saving Grace podcast with internet personality GK Barry recently, Bonnie, who has 139k Instagram followers and 28k on TikTok, said: “I don’t want to discriminate. I don’t want to just to students – I want to do their dads as well.
My dad's so proud I’ve helped hundreds of students lose their virginity - he even wears stamps about having SEX with me to the pub
“To be fair, I need to give credit to this student, he came with his dad.
"I was like, ‘Are you joking?’ When I first saw him with his dad, I thought he was going to come and tell me off. No, it was the opposite, he wanted to join in."
'She’s toxic, greedy & predatory'
The podcast appearance has proven so controversial that there have been calls for GK Barry, real name Grace Keeling, to be removed as a contestant on this year’s season of ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!
In Australia, where Bonnie previously travelled with two bodyguards to attend ‘Schoolies’ university induction events, thousands have signed a petition calling for her to be barred from re-entering the country.
If you had a grown male hanging around student halls, ready to film, in her own words by the way, ‘barely legal’ girls, to profit off on an account he had, I’m sorry but he’d end up in court and being put on a register

Child safety expert Kristi McVee is one of those supporting the ban.
She told The Sun: “The main thing is, she is a grown woman exploiting barely legal and young men who don’t and won’t understand the impacts until they get older.
“Some of these young men - after the high of being with her, the overall excitement and potential disappointment wanes - will have regrets.
“For some it won’t even register, and they will be ok. It will depend on their level of emotional intelligence during and after.
“The point though is that 18-year-old men, who are just leaving school, haven’t had the life experiences or skills to make critical decisions that could impact their future and careers, such as having these videos on the internet for all to see, and most won’t think through the potential long-term consequences before getting involved.
I am shocked that a grown woman would be so persistent in her mission to exploit young men. Who profits here other than her?
Kristi McVee
“Only in the aftermath will we see the potential overall harm.
“Quite frankly, I am shocked that a grown woman would be so persistent in her mission to exploit young men.
“Who profits here other than her? I haven’t considered her motivations but she’s toxic, greedy, and predatory.
“She is feeding the beast of child abuse and exploitation by creating content using teenagers. Anyone who does this is, regardless of their gender, is a predator.”

'It's the 'Karens' that have got an issue'
Despite claims of 'predatory' behaviour, Bonnie Blue has insisted her content is 'educational', adding: "It allows you to understand consent better."
Bonnie hit back this week, blaming so-called ‘Karens’, or privileged white women, for trying to force her out - and pointing out that 18-year-olds are allowed to vote and join the army.
She said of the lads she films with: “They have to sign a consent form [saying] they have not been drinking or have done drugs in the last 24 hours.
“It's the 'Karens' that have got an issue with it. I understand what I do is out there, but sex is focused on one thing. It's pleasure and enjoyment, and that's all I see it as. It's not anything more than that.”
In the same interview, Bonnie doubled down on previous comments she'd made about married men having a right to cheat if their wives won’t sleep with them.
She said: “You can come home, deal with your wife’s whinging, look after the kids - but you’re just sneaking off elsewhere to get pleasured.
“If [men] are going to work and do a hard day’s shift, they need to be treated.”

Having sex to 'create content'
Bonnie is also facing a growing chorus of hate in the UK.
A&E doctor Maddy Lucy Dann recently posted on TikTok: “I’m just going to say it, there’s a woman on this app that is creating content centred around having sex with freshers.
“Freshers in the UK are people who have just started university and broadly speaking they are fresh out of six form, fresh out of school and they are probably about 18 years old.
“In this person’s content, she makes a comment about how a lot of them might be virgins, sexually inexperienced, and I’m sorry but this kind of behaviour is predatory.
If you had a grown male hanging around student halls, ready to film, in her own words by the way, ‘barely legal’ girls, to profit off... I’m sorry but he’d end up in court and being put on a register.
Lifestyle creator Jade Katy
“She’s an older woman and these are younger, inexperienced, vulnerable people that she seeks out via social media in order to have sex with them to create content.
“This person cares far more about their social media presence and making loads of money than they do about these people they are having sex with, who I do not believe are correctly informed and therefore cannot fully consent to what is happening.
“The ramifications of having sex with the person can be plentiful, but the ramification of having sex with somebody that is filming it and posting it – the internet is forever.”

'Bonnie Blue belongs on sex register'
Dubai-based lifestyle creator Jade Katy also slammed Bonnie on TikTok, saying: “Guys, Bonnie Blue belongs on a sex offenders register.
“I said what I said, I’m not going to take it back.
“I’m convinced the woman’s frontal lobe isn’t fully developed the way she goes about her life but that’s by the by.
“If you had a grown male hanging around student halls, ready to film, in her own words by the way, ‘barely legal’ girls, to profit off on an account he had, I’m sorry but he’d end up in court and being put on a register.
“So I’m standing by the fact that this woman also deserves fully to belong on a register.”
Meanwhile, TikTok influencer Kayla Barker compared Bonnie to former kickboxer Andrew Tate, who is accused of spreading sexist views and is currently facing charges of sex trafficking and rape.
Kayla said: “Giving women like Bonnie Blue a platform contributes to violence against women and girls and if you think that’s a reach, please let me educate you.
“It’s clear to see that we’re in a femicide. Violence against women and girls is growing literally every single year.
“It doesn’t come from nowhere, men aren’t born as rapists and abusers, it grows as misogynistic values grow.
“Misogynistic values passed on from creators like Andrew Tate and now Bonnie Blue coming on to the internet and saying, ‘Oh if you’re not having sex with your husband, he has a free pass to cheat on you.’
“It’s so much cheaper than rage bait, it contributes to the objectification of women and it reinforces the idea that men are entitled to have sex with us whenever they want basically."

Turning sex into 'commodity'
Psychotherapist Lucy Beresford also fears that women like Bonnie might end up regretting their actions.
She said: “Sleeping with so many people will mess you up to some degree because it turns sex into a commodity rather than being an intimate act.
“It runs the risk of anaesthetising you to the joy and pleasure that sex can bring in a healthy relationship.
“There is an argument to say such behaviour is pathological because they’re doing it like a job.
“The lines between the act and the emotions that arise through intimacy might be warped – because they are doing it with so many people.”
However, she adds: “But then what is too many? And why is it OK for men to have lots of lovers, but it’s not OK for women?”
Sex addiction expert Dr David Ley also accuses Bonnie’s critics of having double standards.
What is OnlyFans?
OnlyFans is a subscription content service based in London.
As of 2023, it is thought to have more than 220million registered users and over three million content creators.
Sex workers charge monthly fees for access to pictures, videos and more.
While popular for porn, the site isn't exclusively designed with that in mind - anyone who wants to build up a fan base and charge them for it can set one up.
Celebs like Katie Price and Kerry Katona are popular personalities on the platform.
"Whether you’re uploading tutorials, tips, behind-the-scenes footage or just endless selfies, a lot of your followers would be willing to pay for them," the company states.
For every subscription that's sold to a viewer, performers get 80 per cent of the cash while OnlyFans gets the rest.
It isn’t limited to adult content, as it has become popular with physical fitness experts and musicians.
He said: “Many lay people and therapists alike believe that females engaging in casual sex is a sign of low self-esteem, neediness, or even severe mental health.
“An old professor once told me that women who engage in gang bangs are likely pre-psychotic and the multiple men they sleep with fulfil the needs of a fragmenting psyche.
“But we now know these beliefs are all driven by misogyny, sexism and sexual double-standards in our societies.

“The only reasons that women who engage in promiscuity or group sex experience negative outcomes is because of social judgment and stigma.
“If we want women to not experience such harm, we as a society must consider our role in it.”
