Meet Belle Delphine, the Instagram star who sold her bathwater to 'thirsty gamer boys' and had her account shut down after people reported her
Belle Delphine is a 19-year-old model from the United Kingdom who has gained a significant social following since she first started posting content to Instagram in 2015.
Delphine's content is usually provocative, and often not-safe-for-work. She's most famous for making the "ahegao" facial expression in her photos.
We'll let Wikipedia define that for you: "Ahegao is a term of Japanese pornography describing a facial expression of fictional characters during sex often used in pornographic videogames, manga and anime."

Delphine runs a Patreon account for "creating photos and lewd content" that has almost 4,400 paying fans. For $50 or more a month, "patrons" can get access to Delphine's premium Snapchat account that features her "naughtiest" photos.

In June, Delphine went viral when she told her followers she'd create an account on the popular PornHub site if one of her Instagram posts got over 1 million likes. But instead of posting porn, as her fans may have expected, she uploaded 12 videos to PornHub that showed her doing things like cuddling two stuffed roosters, or eating a picture of YouTube personality PewDiePie.
In response to Delphine's trolling, fans responded with emotions ranging from disappointment to glee, with one person comparing her to a "2019 Andy Warhol."

In July, Delphine started selling $30 bottles of "GamerGirl Bath Water" on her online store for "thirsty gamer boys." She advertised the water by posting Instagram videos of her playing in a bathtub. To even Delphine's surprise, the jars of bathwater sold out online in just three days.

Although Delphine sold the bathwater with the disclaimer that the water "is not for drinking," people online were quick to consume it. People who posted reviews online said the water tasted "so salty" and "candy-like."

As of Friday morning, Delphine's two Instagram accounts were shut down after what appears to be a coordinated campaign to report her accounts for "nudity or pornography." However, her Facebook, Twitter, and Patreon accounts are all still online at the time of writing.
