What to Know
There’s nothing like the wrong collab to make you rethink all of your life choices. Well, maybe not all of your life choices, but some of them, when it comes to social media. That’s what happened to adult entertainment star and content creator Ari Kytsya, who made videos with Sophie Rain, only to backpedal and delete them soon after.
And why did Ari do this? According to the TikTok she posted where she explains herself, it’s not totally clear. But in another video that another user shared on the platform, they give more insight to what happened when Ari and Sophie made some content together and comments began to flood in, accusing Sophie of some serious things and, by extension, shaming Ari for working with her.
Ari Kytsya’s apology video had some of her followers pretty confused.

The issue, per the other user’s video, is that people have accused Sophie of allegedly grooming other, younger and underage adult content creators. While Sophie has not been found guilty of any of the accusations against her, just the claims from other users were enough to make Ari take a step back and delete literally every video they made together.
“You guys are fully correct for being upset about my last post because it’s not consistent with my views, undermines a lot of issues that I’ve talked about and things that I don’t agree with and that I post consistently about on my page,” Ari says in her video, addressing her followers. “I was focusing on a much smaller issue of, you know, hate between girls in the industry.”
She adds that she doesn’t need to explain exactly what happened, even for those who commented on that TikTok to ask what the heck she is even going on about. The content she posted as part of her collab with Sophie was put up and taken down so fast that, apparently, some of her fans didn’t even see it to begin with.
“Do I need to explain it and tell everybody what happened? No, because that’s not my experience, and I don’t know what really happened,” she admits. “But with the platform that I have, I have the choice of who I put on it and what information I’m sharing, and I should definitely be considering that more.”
She deleted all of her collab videos with Sophie Rain.

After people commented to shame Ari for collaborating with Sophie, she took the videos down and tried to do damage control. Hey, if she didn’t know about the controversy surrounding Sophie, then OK, most of her fans and followers can probably understand. But another user who posted the explanation of what happened in clearer terms than Ari says in her video that Sophie is a 20-something Only Fans model who has some serious allegations against her, though nothing has been proven.
“People in the comments of the videos of their collab are alleging that Sophie is a groomer and that she tries to coerce underage girls into being [OnlyFans] models so people are not happy about that,” she says. “So when Ari realised the differences in their values she came online to say, ‘I’m sorry you’re right the videos are gone.'”
Despite Ari’s messup, apparently, her fans have her back. When the user posted her explanation video to get people up to speed, most of the comments showed support for Ari, calling her a “girl’s girl” and applauding her for immediately addressing the issue.
“Ari hopped right on and immediately set the record straight,” someone commented. “She’s always been 100% real and honest. She’s a girls girl and we love her always.”
Sophie Rain has some serious controversy on social media.
In a Reddit thread about Sophie, a user alleged that she “groomed” another model who was 17 and then, when the model turned 18, Sophie allegedly made adult content with her. Whether that has been confirmed or not is still unclear. However, other users commented on the Reddit thread to agree that they don’t trust Sophie.
“Making sexually suggestive videos with a girl right after she turns 18 when you knew her since she was a MINOR is nauseating,” the Redditor wrote in the post. “I am aware Ari Kytsya made an ‘apology’ video already but come ON people, surely you’d know what this person does.”
