lmao Bella Thorne is not a "20yo nobody". She had tens of millions of followers before joining OnlyFans.

I think "nobody" was relative here. I had never heard of her before this thread and looking at her career she isn't a nobody but she is very far from being an A-lister.

You should have seen the massive amount of Bella thorne posts online before her onlyfans. Tons of 4chan threads, reddit posts, and subreddits for her pics, etc. (Though, the same could be said for any celeb, she was definitely a "thing").

She was pretty risqué in her social media photos/videos before onlyfans and garnered quite a following online because of it. Most of her popularity online had nothing to do with her acting career at all.

She is also not a porn star. None of this content is nude. The running joke is that there are pap photos showing more skin than what people paid for here.

That's the hilarious part: now the same simps who spent a fortune hoping to see her nudes are upset:

"She is a nobody": in my book she IS a nobody. Her achievement in life is eating well, working out, having a nice looking body, being genetically (or surgically) blessed with a good appearance and shows off her body parts for money. I do not want any harm to come to her (go to hell, drop dead, get sick, etc.) I wish her a long and healthy life.

The only "positive" thing in her towards contributing to a better humanity is the words of donating to charity (aka tax breaks).

Having sex in front of a camera is a profession, I get that, but she is still a nobody. A nobody with money. But still a nobody (in my book). I am not forcing anyone to have the same criteria of what I consider as "decent human being" that I have developed as my silly(?) standards.

Nothing negative for her, but definitely nothing positive for her either. Just a zero.
