The 21-year-old rapper and online provocateur, born Danielle Bregoli, also known as Bhad Bhabie, is being sued by American Express for a substantial amount of $674,452. The suit, filed on July 2, 2025, in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleges that she defaulted on a credit agreement for a card she opened in April 2021, presumably around the time she turned 18 and made her experimental OnlyFans debut.
American Express claims the “catch me outside” star hasn’t been paying since December 2024, and they’ve had it up to here. The credit card company is seeking the total unpaid balance for breach of contract. According to court documents, Bhad Bhabie either agreed to pay the debt off in full or make planned payments, but as of now, she has not received the details.

The lawsuit is bound to raise a few exquisitely arched eyebrows, given the Floridian’s very public assertions of fiscal hegemony. Since the rapper’s OnlyFans debuted a few days after she turned 18, Bhad Bhabie has bragged about having earned tens of millions of dollars on the platform, claiming $1 million in the first six hours, $18 million in the first month, and an astonishing $57 million by mid-2024.
By December 2024, she was boasting about $80 million in earnings to her rivals, a number she later corrected to $75 million in March 2025. That’s the kind of bag that makes a six-figure credit card receipt look like a little loose change on the dresser, which is why listeners and critics alike are just as baffled as the DJs about what happened.
Whether it’s a bookkeeping blip or a serious instance of fucked contract wages, The difference between Bhad Bhabie’s OnlyFans windfall and this new lawsuit is stark. Social media is already abuzz with hot takes, from sympathy for a young star figuring out how to be an adult under a microscope to raised eyebrows over priorities when $674K doesn’t get paid.
And while some are quick to wonder whether big money necessarily leads to immediate financial wisdom, particularly when success arrives early, others view it as a classic story of lifestyle running headlong into the ledger.
Nothing official yet from the camp of Bhad Bhabie, but with the Old Man (of Credit) at the door and legal gears running, she might have to face the alarm clock and rub the sleep out of her eyes.
For someone who once broke the internet with a six-hour, seven-figure earnings buying spree, it seems even a viral queen can’t ghost her credit card company. Well, I guess American Express doesn’t play when it comes to that “catch me outside,” but they prefer to catch you in court.
