OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue has been arrested, according to a video posted to her Instagram account, though some social media users say the clip is fake.
Newsweek reached out to Blue's representative via email for comment.
The Context
Blue, whose real name is Tia Billinger, is a British adult film creator who gained online fame for her extreme sex challenges. In January, she went viral for sleeping with 1,057 men in 12 hours.
Following the stunt, the 25-year-old took to Instagram: "Over 1000 men in a day! thank you to all the barely legal, barely breathing & the husbands," Blue wrote. She currently boasts 764,000 followers on the platform.
What To Know
On Wednesday, a video posted to Blue's account showed the internet personality being searched by U.K. police officers as she leaned against a law enforcement vehicle.
Blue's sister captioned the clip: "As you may have seen, Tia has been arrested. We still don't have clarity on the situation but will keep you all in the loop as soon as we know. Thanks for all of the support in the last 24 hours. This isn't something we wanted to get out but it seems there is no privacy for her anymore."
At the time of publication, the video racked up more than 5 million views, 35,800 likes and over 1,800 comments.
The video has since been shared to X, formerly Twitter, and other alleged angles from the scene were posted on social media, too.
Eagle-eyed internet sleuths pointed out potential issues with the clips, including that the police officers' voices were easily heard, hinting that they had microphones attached to their uniforms. The police vehicle is also said to be a prop car belonging to Police Car Hire UK.
Additionally, fellow OnlyFans star Lily Phillips, who gained attention for sleeping with over 100 men in a day, was seen on her own Instagram account getting stopped by the police on Wednesday, which raised eyebrows.

What People Are Saying
X user @JPWR_1984 wrote in a post with over 192,700 views: "Bonnie Blue has NOT been arrested. In the video, the police car she's seen getting into is RO23 HRM which is used for filming. The car itself has no identification numbers on the side or roof which would indicate the force the car is assigned to. It's a TV prop car. #BonnieBlue."
@Lillyin_London said in a post with over 127,300 views: "People are talking about #BonnieBlue being arrested. But it could also be a publicity stunt: the same vehicle was used on several film sets."
@noreaga1990 said in a post with 166,300 views: "BREAKING: OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue STAGED her arrested FOR MORE ATTENTION. ITS ALL FAKE."
Underneath @noreaga1990's post, X included a context note: "This is a fake video, one of several going viral. The videos show Bonnie Blue getting arrested at different locations by the same police officers using the same police car. The police car is a prop car that is rented out for films and skits by Police Car Hire UK." Various images of the car with the RO23 HRM registration have been posted to Police Car Hire UK's Instagram.
On Instagram, @ commented: "Love how clear we can hear the police. And isn't this the same popo in the video with @lilyphillip_s."
@mortyfr3sh commented: "This is obviously staged!! The police man isn't wearing a hat! And in UK law article 15 paragraph 4 'All Police officers must wear a hat at all times.'"
@sophiesjames21 commented: "Car not openly showing 'police' signage and vests don't have their constabulary badge which I thought they had to? If it's not real there could be issues with impersonating police I would think."
@jordangrattan2 commented: "This is strange Lily Philips and Bonnie blue have both been arrested."
@ commented: "I'll give it to you Bonnie, your marketing team is elite."
