Fact-Check: No, Pornhub Did Not Frozen Mia Khalifa’s Income or Donate to Israel

A recent claim circulating online suggests that the popular adult content platform Pornhub froze the income of former porn star Mia Khalifa and donated it to Israel due to her support for Hamas. However, our fact-check reveals that these claims are entirely baseless and false.

There is no concrete evidence to support the assertion that Pornhub donated any funds to Israel, let alone freezing Mia Khalifa’s income. Our investigation did not uncover any credible reports indicating that Mia Khalifa’s account on the platform had been frozen. Moreover, Pornhub’s official communications and support page makes no mention of any donations to Israel.

While Mia Khalifa has faced controversy for her outspoken views on the Israel-Hamas conflict, the claim of Pornhub’s involvement in freezing her income and donating it to Israel is unfounded.

Separately, it has come to light that the adult magazine Playboy has severed its ties with Mia Khalifa due to her comments on the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. In an email sent to its newsletter subscribers, Playboy announced that it had terminated its relationship with Khalifa and deleted her channel on their creator platform.

Playboy cited its commitment to free expression and constructive political debate but asserted a zero-tolerance policy toward hate speech. The email stated, “We are writing today to let you know of our decision to terminate Playboy’s relationship with Mia Khalifa, including deleting Mia’s Playboy channel on our creator platform.”

It is important to note that this action by Playboy is a separate matter from the unfounded claims regarding Pornhub and Israel. Playboy’s decision was based on Khalifa’s comments related to the Israel-Hamas conflict and their own policies, rather than any allegations of financial wrongdoing.

Additionally, Mia Khalifa’s involvement with a podcast deal with Canada-based podcaster and radio show host Todd Shapiro has also been discontinued due to her support for Palestine in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Khalifa’s comments on social media and other platforms have sparked controversy, leading some organizations to distance themselves from her.

In conclusion, the claim that Pornhub froze Mia Khalifa’s income and donated it to Israel is unsubstantiated and false. While there have been repercussions for Khalifa’s comments on the Israel-Hamas conflict, these actions are not related to the allegations in the viral claim. Fact-checking is crucial to prevent the spread of misinformation and false narratives.
