OnlyFans sensation Sophie Rain reckons she will make more money than LeBron James next year, and she might be onto something.

Sophie, one of the highest earners on the platform, raked in $43 million in her first year with OF and, by mid-2025, boasted a $76 million gross profit that netted her $51 million after taxes. The sum rivals some of the highest salaries in the NBA.

LeBron edged her out, earning $52.63 million with the Los Angeles Lakers last season and is due $52.62 million in the next.

Speaking during an appearance on the ‘Banging Out’ podcast, the influencer vowed to out-earn the NBA superstar in 2026.

Rain’s ascent to stardom has been nothing short of impressive. She launched her account on OF after losing her job as a waitress and wasted little time becoming one of its highest-paid personalities, although she claims she doesn’t post raunchy content.

She reportedly made $4.7 million from one fan alone.

Given how things are going, she could probably earn more than $52.62 million from the platform next year.

Still, it’s doubtful that she will make more money than LBJ, who has money coming in from just about everywhere as he has several endorsement deals and other business ventures, including a stake in English Premier League side Liverpool FC, who are doing very well at the moment and look poised to win a second successive title after spending big in the transfer market on stars such as Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz.

The reigning PL champions are also favored to sign hotshot striker Alexander Isak.
