Tia Billinger (born 1999 [1] [2] ), known professionally as Bonnie Blue, [3] [4] [5] is an English pornographic film actress and online content creator. In 2025, she claimed to have had sex with 1,057 men in a single day in an attempt to set a world record. Blue has attracted controversy for the age of the male participants (as young as 18) recruited to perform in her sexually explicit videos, as well as for comments which critics have said promote misogyny and sexual objectification of women.
Blue has claimed to have made anywhere from £600,000 [6] to more than $2 million (£1.5 million) per month on OnlyFans. [7] In June 2025, she announced and later cancelled a "petting zoo" event in which she would be tied up naked inside a glass box with the goal of having sex with 2,000 men. OnlyFans then terminated her account for violating the site's rules against "extreme challenges". Blue then moved her content to Fansly .
Blue was born in 1999 [1] in Stapleford, Nottinghamshire. [2] Before beginning her pornographic film career, she worked in finance recruitment for the National Health Service (NHS) [3] and was married. [8] Bored of recruitment, she moved to Australia and then went into sex work. [9] Her marriage ended in 2021, [8] although she told Cosmopolitan UK in 2024 that her ex-husband still worked with her behind the scenes. [8] [10] After making US$5,000 in one week [8] and £8,000 in her first month, [2] she launched an OnlyFans page on which she posted videos of herself having sex with 18- and 19-year-old men. [8] In 2024, during freshers' week in Derby and Nottingham, Blue posted her location online and allowed men to have sex with her for free, [11] so long as they consented to the sex being filmed and posted online. [8] [10]
Blue claims to have had sex with married men who were unsatisfied with their spouses, and has made several podcast appearances in which she blamed women for their partners' infidelity; many viewers expressed concern that Blue's comments were misogynistic and contributed to sexual objectification of women. In August 2024, Blue reiterated her comments that sex with married men is acceptable if the men are not satisfied by their spouses on The Kyle and Jackie O Show . [8] Blue has also been accused of manipulating young men into performing sex on camera and of not considering the long-term impact on such men. [8] [10] Blue remarked in an interview with Cosmopolitan that it was "stupid" to question whether the young men in her videos understood the consequences, saying "we've got no problem sending 18-year-olds to war". [12]
Blue appeared on GK Barry's Saving Grace podcast in October 2024. While there, Blue discussed her amateur pornography featuring 18- and 19-year-olds, which created controversy. [13] Blue stated that she checks identification, all participants are of legal age, and those complaining about the young age of her co-stars should instead encourage the government of the United Kingdom to increase the country's age of consent. She attributed the controversy to the podcast's female audience, prompting some to accuse her of misogyny. GK Barry later deleted the episode. [10] [8] The following month, she appeared on the ITV daytime show This Morning , where she debated against reality television personality Ashley James over the promotion of her content. [14]
Blue was denied entry to Australia, where she had announced she was seeking "barely legal" 18-year-old male volunteers to film sexual content during schoolies week in November 2024. [15] [16] [17] A later trip to Fiji led the country's home affairs minister Pio Tikoduadua to declare her a "prohibited immigrant" and deport her. [15] [16] [18] In December 2024, a video of Blue outside Nottingham Trent University stating that she was seeking male students to have sex with went viral. The video was edited to feature the logo of online casino Stake.com and posted on Twitter by an account claiming to be affiliated with the company and known for posting viral videos. According to The Daily Telegraph , it was unclear whether Blue was involved in creating the adverts. [19] [20] Anti-gambling campaigners contacted the UK's culture secretary to request censorship of the advertisement for using sexual content to promote gambling to young people. [5] [19] [20]
Blue attempted to break the world record for the most number of sexual partners in one day in January 2025 [5] and subsequently claimed to have had sex with 1,057 men in 12 hours. [4] [21] At the time, she was under the impression that Lisa Sparxxx had set a record of 919 in 2004. [a] Blue's co-stars mostly wore balaclavas and included a man who brought his mother; her final co-star began by thanking the cameraman and crew and singing "You've Got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story . [22] Footage of men queuing and one man being forcibly removed from the event by his mother subsequently became a viral video. [12]
In February 2025, Blue denied that she was pregnant following speculation caused by her posting on Instagram a picture of noodles, pickles, and chocolate sauce next to the word "#cravings" followed by a series of photos of herself with the caption "It's giving milf vibes". [10] [23] [24] She briefly sponsored Cornwall amateur football club Calstock FC in April 2025, but was dropped as a sponsor shortly afterwards. [25]
Blue announced in June 2025 and later cancelled a "petting zoo" in which she would be naked and tied up inside a glass box with the intention of having sex with 2,000 men during the event. [26] [27] The idea drew criticism from fellow OnlyFans creators including Sophie Rain, [28] who described the stunt as turning OnlyFans into a "circus". [4] In response to the announcement, OnlyFans reportedly banned Blue from the platform for violating its rules against "extreme challenges". [26] [27] After the ban, Blue begin posting content to subscription-based OnlyFans alternative Fansly [29] [27] and announced a 24-hour live-stream. [30] Her world record attempt and move from OnlyFans were featured in the July 2025 Channel 4 documentary 1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story. [26] In a December 2025 opinion piece for The Spectator , she endorsed Nigel Farage and the tax and immigration policies of his party Reform UK. [31] [32] [33]
Blue was arrested on the Indonesian island of Bali in December 2025 along with over a dozen men from Australia and the UK, accused of producing pornography in violation of the country's morality laws. [34] [35] [36] [37] Police raided a rented studio and seized cameras, clothing, a pickup truck, and other items. [34] [35] [37] [38] Indonesia is a Muslim-majority country with strict laws forbidding pornography production, and Blue faces up to 15 years' imprisonment if convicted. [34] [35] [36] [39] She was deported and also given a ten-year entry ban into Indonesia for carrying out commerical activities that could "cause public unrest". [40] [41] In retaliation, she posted up a video that shows her disrespecting the Indonesian national flag outside the Indonesian embassy in London. [42] The Indonesia embassy in London then escalated to have local authorities involved to determine if she had broke any local laws. [43]
Journalist Sophie Wilkinson described Blue as "a cog in a far bigger machine" and expressed interest in knowing "who hurt her", [8] while Claire Hubble of The i Paper wrote that Blue's virality was "a reflection of the outrage economy". [44]
Eli Cugini of Dazed criticised tabloids for their coverage of both Blue's stunt and fellow OnlyFans creator Lily Phillips's I Slept with 100 Men in One Day. [45] Joe Price of Complex stated that there seemed to be an "OnlyFans arms race" between Blue, Phillips, and Sophie Rain to see who could go viral most often. [21] Wilkinson, writing for Elle, said that both Blue and the 4B movement were "highly-publicised and extreme responses to our sexual culture" and that Blue had "given hypersexualisation a figurehead". [46] Victoria Smith of UnHerd accused Blue of promoting "misogyny" and "dehumanisation". [47]
Blue said in an interview that "You can do this job [sex work] because you enjoy it, because it's a million dollar business" and that her family supported her actions. [47]
Felicity Martin of Glamour, Olivia Petter of The Independent , and television personality Olivia Attwood have asked why Blue and Phillips were being shamed but not the men who queued to have sex with them. [48] [49] [50] Petter compared the stunt with the rape of Gisèle Pelicot, in which groups of men also queued to "have sex with a woman they don't know". [47] Eva Wiseman wrote in The Guardian that "While Phillips and Blue's intentions and morals and psychic damage have been frequently interrogated, the men lining up to be the 20th or 60th person to penetrate a stranger for three minutes [...] have been granted barely a glancing thought". [51]
Brit Dawson in Cosmopolitan described Blue and Phillips as "beautiful, blonde, middle class girls leaving their 'respectable' lives to proudly enter the sex industry" who are "perfect tabloid fodder" at a time of rising sex-negative conservatism, and that the reaction to them is a "quintessential moral panic". Dawson argued that Blue represents the antithesis to the usual portrayal of sex workers as victims rather than "autonomous workers", and so has instead been portrayed in the media as a "man-eater".
