Who is Camilla Araujo? Brazilian-American model drops ‘Becoming Her’ documentary after quitting her $20 million OnlyFans business; watch here

Camilla Araujo, a Brazilian-American model and influencer, began her 2026 by dropping a documentary on New Year’s Day. In the nearly 15-minute film titled “Becoming Her,” she reflected upon her upbringing and also chronicled the reason behind walking away from the OnlyFans business, which made her a millionaire. The business earned her more than $20 million.

In her latest project, she has opened up about quitting the OnlyFans business. “Over the last 3 years, I've gained over 30 million followers and made over $20 million. And yeah, mostly through OnlyFans. But today, I quit. But the reason probably isn't what you think,” she said in the video, which was released on YouTube on January 1, 2026, and garnered more than 700,000 views at the time of filing of this report.

Who is Camilla Araujo?

Born in Raleigh, North Carolina, to Brazilian parents, Camilla Araujo is a model and an influencer. Initially she never had any plans to become an OnlyFans star. In her documentary, she recalled her childhood and said, “I think people have this image that I grew up with the silver spoon, and I grew up extremely wealthy. It's actually the exact opposite.”

“Having immigrant parents, nonetheless, being the firstborn in the United States adds a lot of pressure. I think people have this image that I grew up with the silver spoon and I grew up extremely wealthy. It's actually the exact opposite. My parents used to share a one-bedroom apartment with four people and work their asses off,” the influencer said. According to Rolling Stone, she grew up in what she calls a “household of love, not money.”

The outlet also reported that her mother worked at Subway and a fish market, and her father worked at Domino’s. “When they had me, they weren’t really ready to have a kid at all,” she was quoted by the outlet as saying. “We were living with my aunt and uncle,” she further explained.

With time Araujo's priorities shifted, and she leaned more towards content creation. She did multiple jobs and also fully immersed herself into content creation. She went viral and found recognition through a MrBeast Squid Game video. “People had no idea what my name was. They only knew me as 067. So I chased that. I chased the virality. I chased the fame,” she said, reflecting on that period.

She left college saying, “My heart wasn’t in college. More views equal more money. When I realized that, it was game over.” She later launched an OnlyFans account that became a multimillion-dollar business.

Why did Camilla Araujo quit OnlyFans?

Speaking to The Blast, Araujo revealed the reason behind stepping away from her OnlyFans career. “I didn’t leave OnlyFans because I was ashamed. I left because I evolved. There’s more I want to say and more I want to build,” she said.

According to online platform COMPLEX, Araujo hinted at this shift a few months ago. Industry speculation had indicated a possible transition into mainstream entertainment or high-level business coaching.
