Biography

Mia Khalifa’s net worth is estimated at $5 million as of 2026, built primarily through OnlyFans content creation, social media brand partnerships, sports commentary, and her independently founded jewelry label Sheytan. Born Sarah Joe Chamoun in Beirut, Lebanon, Khalifa became one of the most searched names on the internet following a three-month stint in the adult film industry in late 2014, before pivoting to a career as a media personality, entrepreneur, and fashion figure.

Updated March 2026: According to reporting by Wikipedia’s documented career record and coverage by LADBible (March 2026), Khalifa remains an active media personality in 2026, appearing at Paris Fashion Week, collaborating with fashion label Casablanca, and continuing to operate her Sheytan jewelry brand. Industry estimates consistently place her net worth in the $4–$6 million range, with the most commonly cited figure sitting at approximately $5 million.

Mia Khalifa Early Life and Education

Mia Khalifa was born Sarah Joe Chamoun on February 10, 1993, in Beirut, Lebanon, and raised Catholic in what she has described as a conservative household. She attended a French-language private school in Beirut before her family emigrated to the United States in 2001 in the aftermath of the South Lebanon conflict. The family settled in Montgomery County, Maryland, where Khalifa attended high school and played lacrosse.

She later enrolled at Massanutten Military Academy in Woodstock, Virginia, before transferring to the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in history. To support herself during college, she worked as a bartender, a model, and a “briefcase girl” on a local Spanish-language game show modeled after Deal or No Deal. Her stage name, Mia Khalifa, was a combination of her dog’s name (Mia) and the name of rapper Wiz Khalifa.

Mia Khalifa’s Career: From Adult Films to Media Personality

Khalifa entered the adult film industry in October 2014, after being approached about nude modeling. Within weeks, a scene she filmed for Bang Bros — in which she wore a hijab — went viral globally, making her the most-searched performer on Pornhub and generating widespread controversy, including death threats from ISIS and public condemnation from Lebanese media. Despite the international attention, her time in the industry lasted only three months. She has consistently stated she earned approximately $12,000 total from adult films, though Bang Bros disputed this figure, claiming she received over $178,000 from them and their affiliates.

Following her exit from adult films in early 2015, Khalifa continued performing as a webcam model for Bang Bros for approximately 11 months before transitioning entirely to mainstream media. From 2016 onward, she built a following on Instagram, Twitter, and later TikTok by posting about sports, food, style, and politics. From October 2017 to February 2018, she co-hosted Out of Bounds, a daily sports show on Complex News’s YouTube channel, alongside Gilbert Arenas. She then co-hosted Sportsball with Tyler Coe on Rooster Teeth, which ran through October 2018.

In 2020, Khalifa made a guest appearance on the Hulu series Ramy. In May 2021, she appeared in Bella Poarch’s music video for “Build a Bitch.” That same year, she sold the glasses she wore in her most-viewed adult scenes at auction to raise funds for victims of the 2020 Beirut explosion. In June 2023, she co-founded Sheytan — an anglicized form of the Arabic word for “devil” — a jewelry and bodywear brand developed alongside former Virgil Abloh collaborator Sara Burn. The Sheytan brand appeared at Paris Fashion Week in 2025 and received coverage from Vogue India in late 2025. In early 2026, she was featured in a campaign for luxury fashion house Casablanca and participated in a SHOWstudio art project in which she used X-ray imagery to “reclaim” her body image, featuring Sheytan jewelry.

As of 2026, Khalifa has approximately 28 million Instagram followers, 41 million TikTok followers, and 6 million Twitter/X followers, placing her among the top-tier social media personalities globally.

How Mia Khalifa Built Her $5 Million Fortune

Annual earnings from brand partnerships at this follower tier typically range from $500,000 to $1 million or more.
  • Sheytan Jewelry Brand: Launched in June 2023, Sheytan is a direct-to-consumer jewelry and bodywear label that Khalifa co-founded and continues to operate. The brand appeared at Paris Fashion Week in Fall 2025 and is featured in editorial campaigns. Revenue figures are private.
  • Sports Commentary: Khalifa hosted Out of Bounds on Complex News (2017–2018) and Sportsball on Rooster Teeth (2018). Sports media hosts with her profile and audience size typically command $100,000–$500,000 annually in contract fees.
  • YouTube, Twitch, and Patreon: Khalifa runs an active YouTube channel, livestreams on Twitch, and sells exclusive content and merchandise via Patreon. These platforms contribute recurring passive and active income streams.
