Lil Tay's dad reacts to her earning $1 million from her OnlyFans account, which she launched to celebrate her 18th birthday.
Lil Tay can supplement her piggy bank with her family's support. Chris Hope, the 18-year-old's father, expressed his opinions about his daughter having an account on the subscription-based adult content website OnlyFans two days after she gained $1 million within hours of starting the website.
The attorney stated that Lil Tay (real name Claire Eileen Qi Hope) is now an adult and "can make her own decisions" in an interview with TMZ that was published on August 5. "I am sure she is going to be successful in whatever she decides to do."
Chris acknowledged that "some people won’t approve no matter what she does," even though he claimed to love his daughter and be in no position to judge her decision to use the pornographic website.

Lil Tay, who gained notoriety in 2018 for her vulgar, viral raps in which she flaunted stacks of $100 cash, enticed her followers with the "don't miss" content before to the introduction of her OnlyFans.
In an Aug. 2 Instagram video, the rapper, who turned 18 on July 29, stated, “Y’all already know what the f--k going on,” “Lil Tay’s dropping the youngest link of the century. Mark your calendars. Tomorrow 3:00 p.m. EST.”
"Nobody—including my family and the grown ass haters—is going to stop me," she continued. "You know why? Lil Tay rich and finna get richer, b---h."
In fact, Lil Tay backed up her claim the following day with a snapshot that appeared to demonstrate that she had made $1,024,298 in the first three hours after her page went live: $26,736 in tips, $486,558 from messages, and $511,003 from subscriptions.
In a different Instagram video, she declared, "You can hate on me all you want," "You can't say Lil Tay ain't winning.”
Lil Tay went on, “For everybody out there, do whatever the hell you want with your life. Who gives a f--k what people have to say?"
