It's been a turbulent few weeks for 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Larissa Dos Santos Lima. After announcing her firing from the show for her appearance on CamSoda, Larissa is not holding back about how she feels. Larissa recently performed a one-hour live stream for CamSoda, during which she wore a white bikini and rubbed oil over her chest. Her strip-stream made $100,000 for the site, and she is clearly enjoying the large paychecks. She recently posted a picture of herself in lingerie with the note "money over fame," complete with laughing emojis. Larissa has essentially let the world know that she doesn't need TLC anymore.
To say that Larissa is going through a lot right now would be an understatement. In the last month or so, she has moved in with Eric's mother, coincidentally named Debbie, been fired from TLC, and gotten arrested by ICE agents before being released with a hearing scheduled for later in the year. She also faced Colt Johnson at the reunion special, where he reprised his usual shtick of insulting her looks. Despite their long rivalry, Colt and Larissa have one thing in common: they both model for OnlyFans. It appears OnlyFans accounts get a pass from TLC producers (for now), as it was Larissa's CamSoda appearance that caused her to get fired for her "non-family-friendly" behavior. Fans of course pointed out the irony in this reasoning, given the behavior of other cast-members, including Colt.
According to The Blast, Larissa Lima's post with the comment "money over fame" is the first input she has given since first announcing her firing in a more neutral manner. Her newest comment is far from neutral; we know exactly how she feels about being removed from 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? and can assume she's not too bothered about her firing and is happy to stick to her new opportunities on OnlyFans, CamSoda, and YouTube.
Larissa has often faced criticism, including from her ex-husband Colt, about trying to take money from other people. Despite borrowing money from her boyfriend Eric Nichols to pay for her plastic surgeries during this season, reports from Larissa's publicist say she paid him back quickly with the money she earned from the show. She likely makes plenty of her own money now thanks to her self-promotion and multiple sources of income.
Despite getting flack for her OnlyFans and CamSoda appearances, including being called a stripper during the Tell-All by Libby Potthast, Larissa's new post implies that she's perfectly happy sticking to her guns and continuing to do what she's doing. Even though she prefers "money over fame," it's safe to assume that Larissa's spotlight isn't going anywhere, and as one of the more controversial stars of 90 Day Fiance, she likely won't end up having to choose money over fame any time soon.
