For Rebekka Blue, making money is a gas.
As a stripper-turned-influencer, the 29-year-old millionaire has crafted enterprising ways to make money, including selling her toenails, foot skin, used panties and more.
Now, she’s turning her belches into big bucks, making a fortune in “natural gas” by selling burps in a bag for $100 a pop.
“It certainly is a rare request,” Blue told NeedToKnow Online. “My customers are ecstatic and satisfied that I offer a service to fulfill their fantasy.”
Blue shocked her 1.1 million followers on TikTok when she made the announcement she’s trading burps for bucks.
“I got paid $100 to burp in a bag today,” she said in a clip that has over 3.7 million views, showing her chugging soda before belching into a clear bag.
Blue said that she’s “been creating burp content” since she became popular on social media but “it wasn’t until 2022 that burps in a bag were requested.”
Now, she offers custom burps for her fans.
“You can order as many as you want,” she said. “The bigger and longer your burps are, the more money you can make with burp content.”
“Each customer has different requests, and with video content, they can ask if they want you to act impressed or grossed out by the burps,” she continued. “Some even request you to rub your tummy at the same time!”
But burping ain’t easy, Blue said, noting she has to prep her body for the gassy moment.
“I eat a full meal that has some sort of onion in it, very fast, chug water and chase with the soda,” she said. “Diet Dr. Pepper is my ideal choice — I’ve tried all sodas and this one acts the fastest.”
“It can be taxing on my body which is why I price accordingly,” she added. “And if the burps aren’t as pungent that day, I swallow as much air as I can, as fast as I can.”
Last year, the self-proclaimed “Professional Goddess” said she reportedly rakes in between $5,000 and $10,000 per month by hawking an array of bizarre and gross mementos from used tissues to panty-liners.
Blue allegedly went from making only around $50 a week when she started to raking in more than $1 million in just 10 years — which she credits to documenting her business on TikTok.
In one video with 2.5 million views, she explained that she started selling earwax-caked Q-tips for $5 a pop.
Other products have included worn sportswear, used tissues, shoes dirtied by excessive walking and much much more.
“If we go to the salon to get our toes done, I’m asking to keep the flip flops and the toenail dividers and trying to get my client to pay for everybody’s pedicures,” explained Blue. “It’s an upselling challenge. She even sells her garbage, proving that one person’s trash is indeed another’s treasure.”
