Piper Rockelle has recently ventured into the realm of OnlyFans, receiving a varied response from her long-time followers.
Known to her audience for nearly ten years, Piper Rockelle, now 18, began her journey as a content creator on YouTube at the tender age of 8.
She initially collaborated with her mother Tiffany Smith to kick start her career, later forming an influencer collective called the ‘Piper Squad’ composed of teenagers.
Even if her videos are not universally recognized, her impact is significant, boasting over 12 million subscribers on her YouTube channel. Her influence extends across other platforms, with more than 18 million followers on TikTok and 6.6 million on Instagram.
Upon turning 18 in August, Piper made a decision that has stirred mixed feelings among her dedicated fanbase.
On January 1, 2026, Rockelle launched her OnlyFans account, astonishingly earning over $3.4 million within the initial 24 hours.
Prior to the official launch, she had been actively promoting the page on her social media, with her X bio teasing, ‘the link drops on January 1’.
On December 30, Rockelle shared an Instagram video with her grandma, inquiring about her potential earnings for January 1.
Her grandmother confidently speculated, “I think the number that’s coming in my head is 2 million.”
Piper responded in surprise, “2 million?” and her grandmother affirmed, “Yes, ma’am.”
In a post that has since been removed, Rockelle expressed her astonishment at surpassing these expectations, writing on X: “We broke the record!!! $1,000,000 in less than an hour, you guys are the best, thank you for changing my life.”
She also shared a breakdown of her alleged earnings from subscriptions and tips on OnlyFans.
Despite her success, some fans have voiced their disapproval of her choice.
One person commented: “Extremely disturbing folk that watch child YouTubers and spend money on OFs subs as soon as they turn legal age.
“All the weird men in here happy but what about when she was 17, y’all nasty asses was just waiting for her to be freshly of age.”
Another stated: “This is disgusting, especially the teen girls doing this just out of high school or still in.”
Someone else expressed disbelief: “I can’t believe this is the Piper I looked up to.”
Conversely, some supporters have applauded her achievements.
One person remarked: “About to make millions showing IG-type content.”
Another wished her well: ”I wish you so well, happiness, health and success!! You are working your butt off and deserve it!! Happy New Year!!!”
