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.

Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.

The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.

The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”

However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.

It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.

Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.

The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.

Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.

This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
