Who is Natalie Reynolds and was the OnlyFans star arrested? Truth behind viral video
In the video, Reynolds can be seen being handcuffed by a police officer against a police car before she is taken inside the car, allegedly to be transported to the station. Or at least that's the impression the video gives. The rumor that she was arrested for supposedly trying to film an OnlyFans video in public.
However, on noticing carefully, one sees many inconsistencies with the video. First up, the police have only 'Police' retained on the uniform, without any mention of the department. There are also no arrest records in Miami showing that the influencer was taken in.
Besides, Reynolds is known for pulling off elaborate pranks on social media. As a result, it is likely that the video is also one such prank.
Here's the video:
Who is Natalie Reynolds?
Another rumor that has simultaneously gone viral on social media claims that Natalie Reynolds is the daughter of Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds. However, that rumor is as baseless as it gets, as Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have four daughters, James, Inez, Betty, and Olan.

So, who is Natalie Reynolds? Well, Natalie Reynolds is a TikToker and OnlyFans creator who has a significant presence across platforms. On TikTok, she has close to one million followers, while on Instagram, she has over 322,000. She became viral with a video where she was seen crying in front of the TikTok headquarters in Los Angeles.
The stunt was motivated by a ban that the Byte Dance-owned platform implemented on her, and she said she was there to plead her case with TikTok. Though she said the ban was the result of rivalry with other creators, people online thought that was not the case.

Lawyer argues Meta can't be held liable for gunmaker's Instagram posts in Uvalde families' lawsuit
Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills A lawsuit filed by families of the Uvalde school shooting victims alleging Instagram allowed gun manufacturers to promote firearms to minors should be thrown out, lawyers for Meta, Instagram's parent company, argued children and two teachers were killed in the May 2022 shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, families sued Meta in Los Angeles in May 2024, saying the social media platform failed to enforce its own rules forbidding firearms advertisements aimed at minors. The families, who were present at last month's hearing, did not appear in court, with a lawyer citing the back-to-school season. Many plaintiffs attended the hearing virtually, he one ad posted on Instagram, the Georgia-based gunmaker Daniel Defense shows Santa Claus holding an assault rifle. In another post by the same company, a rifle leans against a refrigerator, with the caption: 'Let's normalize kitchen Daniels. What Daniels do you use to protect your kitchen and home?'The lawsuit alleges those posts are marketed toward minors. The Uvalde gunman opened an online account with Daniel Defense before his 18th birthday and purchased the rifle as soon as he could, according to the lawsuit. He also owned various Instagram accounts and had an 'obsessive relationship' with the platform, at times opening the app more than 100 times a day, plaintiffs' lawyers found in an analysis of the shooter's say minors can access gun content on InstagramMeta attorney Kristin Linsley argued that the families provided no proof that minors, including the Uvalde gunman, even read the Daniel Defense posts on Instagram. She also said the posts didn't violate Meta's policies because they weren't direct advertisements and did not include links to purchase any Mesner-Hage, representing the victims' families, said the defense's claim is 'fundamentally unfair,' as the plaintiffs don't have access to Meta data that would indicate whether the shooter encountered those posts. She added that if the content had landed on the shooter's feed, as the plaintiffs allege, then Meta 'not only knew about it, they designed the system so it would be delivered to him.''They knew more about him than anyone else on the planet,' she said content advertising firearms for sale on Instagram is allowed if posted by 'brick-and-motor and online retailers,' but visibility of those posts was restricted for minors under Meta's advertising policies from the end of 2021 to October 2022.'This is not a playbook for how to violate the rules. This is actually what the rules are,' Linsley plaintiff's team, however, showed a fake profile they created for a 17-year-old boy earlier this month, through which they were able to search Daniel Defense's Instagram account and see a post that included a picture of a gun, as well as a link to the gun manufacturer's the link was clicked, the gun-maker's website opened, and the team was able to select a firearm and add it to their cart, all within Instagram's app — an experiment that refutes Meta's assertion that posts relating to firearms aren't visible to users under 21, Mesner-Hage said in her rebuttal that the experiment was done this year and not in 2021 to 2022, which is when the policy she described was in families have also sued Daniel Defense and video game company Activision, which produces 'Call of Duty.'Case hinges on social media's responsibility for content creationLinsley said the Communications Decency Act allows social media platforms to moderate content without being treated as publishers of that content."The only response a company can have is to not have these kinds of rules at all," Linsley said. 'It just gets you down a rabbit hole very quickly.'Mesner-Hage argued Meta is not protected by the act because social media platforms don't just host speech, but help curate it through its algorithms. Daniel Defense, she said, didn't have to pay for ads to get free access to Meta's analytical data through its business account on Instagram. That data shows the company which age bracket and gender engaged most with a specific post.'Daniel Defense is not on Instagram to make friends. ... They're on there to promote their product,' Mesner-Hage said. 'It's not a paid advertisement, but I would struggle to describe this as anything other than an advertisement.'The lawsuit alleges that firearm companies tweaked their online marketing to comply with Meta's policies, including by avoiding the words 'buy' or 'sell' and not providing links to purchase, and that the social media company did not protect users against such month, lawyers for Activision also argued that legal proceedings against them should be thrown out, saying the families allegations are barred by the First Amendment. The families alleged that the war-themed video game Call of Duty trained and conditioned the Uvalde gunman to orchestrate his for the plaintiffs asked the judge to allow them to amend their lawsuit with the new information they presented Tuesday before ruling on the defense's motion. The defense claimed that was unnecessary, as the case would not have merit even with the judge has yet to rule on Activision's motion and did not immediately rule on the Meta case.

Minnesota sues TikTok, alleging it preys on young people with addictive algorithms
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison briefs reporters in his office about the lawsuit he filed against social media giant TikTok, alleging it preys on young people with addictive algorithms, at the Minnesota State Capitol in Saint Paul, Minn., Tuesday, Aug. 19, 2025. (AP Photo/Steve Karnowski) The lawsuit, filed in state court, alleges that TikTok is violating Minnesota laws against deceptive trade practices and consumer fraud. It follows a flurry of lawsuits filed by more than a dozen states last year alleging the popular short-form video app is designed to be addictive to kids and harms their mental health. Minnesota's case brings the total to about 24 states, Ellison's office said. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Minnesota on Tuesday joined a wave of states suing TikTok, alleging the social media giant preys on young people with addictive algorithms that trap them into becoming compulsive consumers of its short videos."This isn't about free speech. I'm sure they're gonna holler that," Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said at a news conference. "It's actually about deception, manipulation, misrepresentation. This is about a company knowing the dangers, and the dangerous effects of its product, but making and taking no steps to mitigate those harms or inform users of the risks."The lawsuit, filed in state court, alleges that TikTok is violating Minnesota laws against deceptive trade practices and consumer fraud. It follows a flurry of lawsuits filed by more than a dozen states last year alleging the popular short-form video app is designed to be addictive to kids and harms their mental health. Minnesota's case brings the total to about 24 states, Ellison's office of the earlier lawsuits stemmed from a nationwide investigation into TikTok launched in 2022 by a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general from 14 states into the effects of TikTok on young users' mental health. Ellison, a Democrat, said Minnesota waited while it did its own Padden, a middle-school health teacher in the Roseville Area school district, joined Ellison, saying he has witnessed a correlation between increased TikTok use and an "irrefutable spike in student mental health issues," including depression, anxiety, anger, lowered self-esteem and a decrease in attention spans as they seek out the quick gratification that its short videos lawsuit comes while President Donald Trump is still trying to broker a deal to bring the social media platform, which is owned by China's ByteDance, under American ownership over concerns about the data security of its 170 million American users. While Trump campaigned on banning TikTok, he also gained more than 15 million followers on the platform since he started sharing videos on matter who ultimately owns TikTok, Ellison said, it must comply with the disputed Minnesota's allegations."This lawsuit is based on misleading and inaccurate claims that fail to recognize the robust safety measures TikTok has voluntarily implemented to support the well-being of our community," company spokesperson Nathaniel Brown said in a statement. "Teen accounts on TikTok come with 50+ features and settings designed to help young people safely express themselves, discover and learn."Through our Family Pairing tool, parents can view or customize 20+ content and privacy settings, including screen time, content filters, and our time away feature to pause a teen's access to our app," Brown is seeking a declaration that TikTok's practices are deceptive, unfair or unconscionable under state law, a permanent injunction against those practices, and up to $25,000 for each instance in which a Minnesota child has accessed TikTok. Ellison wouldn't put a total on that but said, "it's a lot." He estimated that "hundreds of thousands of Minnesota kids" have TikTok on their devices."We're not trying to shut them down, but we are insisting that they clean up their act," Ellison said. "There are legitimate uses of products like TikTok. But like all things, they have to be used properly and safely."Minnesota is also among dozens of U.S. states that have sued Meta Platforms for allegedly building features into Instagram and Facebook that addict people. The messaging service Snapchat and the gaming platform Roblox are also facing lawsuits by some other states alleging harm to kids.
