Barna’s 2024 report, “Beyond the Porn Phenomenon,” found that over half of practicing Christians (54%) say they use pornography compared to 68% of non-Christians. Seventy-four percent of practicing Christians “who have engaged with porn” say no one is helping them avoid it, and 67% of pastors have used porn at some point in their lives.
“I find it so difficult to wrap my brain around—when we’re the church, we’re the heart of Christ,” Ray said. “Where are the fruits of the Spirit? But yet you’re funding somebody living this hurtful lifestyle. Think about it: The more I did, the more I had to abuse, the more I had to take more drugs, the more I had to drink. The bigger the scene…the more I drank. It was horrible.”
De La Mora mentioned the deceitful promises of fame and money that Satan used to lure Ray into pornography. “I would love for you to expose some of the dark side,” said De La Mora, noting that other creators on OnlyFans might be tempted by fame or that people who are subscribing to the platform might believe they are talking directly with the content creators. “Can you expose the dark side of the industry and just share some truth on that today?” she asked.
“Yeah, well, number one, you’re not talking to the girl,” said Ray. “OnlyFans is so over-generated now that these girls always end up in an agency.” Those agencies take 60% of the profits, while the content creator gets 40%.
Ray again emphasized that subscribers might think they’re talking with the pornography creator, but they are definitely not. “I guarantee, I’ve seen this,” she said, “just trust me, like, you’re not speaking to the girl anymore. You’re talking to men” or to a middle-aged woman.
Ray described watching girls break down crying after coming down from the high of creating content. One woman had a “total panic attack” after doing her first girl-on-girl scene and asked for the scene not to be sold, but the agency pushed it out anyway. “So you don’t have control at the end of the day,” said Ray, stating that OnlyFans creators do not sign contracts.
“Wow,” said De La Mora. De La Mora was even more appalled when Ray said no one involved in OnlyFans got STD testing.
Ray went on to share her testimony of how her now-husband, Jordan, showed her the love of Christ and how God spoke to her in her loneliness, telling her, “I was all you ever needed.” Ray began to grow in her faith, learning how to pray and read the Bible. The Holy Spirit began convicting her about modesty and not swearing.
She got baptized and realized she needed to get off OnlyFans completely. “Unfortunately, OnlyFans does not allow you to fully delete your account until every subscriber, every paid subscriber, is off,” Ray said.
Because people subscribed to her for up to a year for a discounted rate, her account will not be fully gone until the beginning of 2026. But she said that people can’t subscribe to her page anymore and that she cannot even log in anymore.
Ray said she will sometimes have women reach out to her on Instagram and say that a friend of theirs is considering getting on OnlyFans. They want her advice about how to talk to their friends. “And that’s so sad,” said Ray. “It’s so sad because OnlyFans has made it so appealing, so appealing to make millions, and they’ve marketed themselves so well.”
“Going on to OnlyFans, you are gonna meet people that should not be in your life,” she said, “those influences that really start taking hold in your decision-making. So you’re entering a very, very dark room full of very dark people. They will suck you in.”
The allure of making a lot of money draws people in, but the truth is that Ray is one of the few creators who made the kind of money she did. “There’s so many girls that don’t even touch that kind of income,” she said, “selling everything about themselves.”
