Belle Delphine has made it a habit to go viral on Twitter due to her consistent antics. During an “Impaulsive” podcast appearance, Belle Delphine went into detail about the reasons why people tend to “simp” on her. While she attributed her success to the overall popularity of anime, there is quite a lot more to it.

Belle Delphine might be one of the most popular faces around currently, but things were not always the same. Her brand of content, suggestive products and the different unrestricted platforms that she has spent time on has brought her criticism from all corners of the internet.

She has resorted to vandalism in the past and appears to be very honest about her antics as well. Over time, Belle Delphine has made it a rule to keep her private life more secretive, with most of her content being of a “tried and tested” category.

Quite a few female internet celebrities have complained that fans tend to be a bit too obsessed over their looks. Instead of complaining, Belle Delphine has used this trend to become one of the most popular internet stars around. Her suggestive video clips and photos on Twitter regularly result in hundreds of “simp” fans making her name trend on the platform.

This, in turn, has allowed her to increase her popularity further. In the “Impaulsive” podcast, Belle Delphine had revealed that she earns around $2 million through OnlyFans alone. This is in addition to the 1.98 million subscribers she has garnered on YouTube, with much scope for further increases in earnings.

Overall, Belle Delphine is the prime example of a female celebrity making use of the otherwise “toxic” simp culture. Not only has she grown past the criticism that she initially received but has monetized the phenomenon to a commendable extent.
