The Bop House is a multimillion-dollar mansion full of female OnlyFans creators living together and making viral online content. They claim to have made US$10 million just last month. Content creator houses full of influencers are nothing new - we’ve had the Hype House on TikTok and Team 10 on YouTube - but The Bop House has the internet divided. In this episode of The Briefing Helen Smith is joined by adult content creator and industry advocate Nova Hawthorne to explain what a 'bop' is, and why so many people are hating on the OF creators who live there.
