When Layla Kelly saw two police officers at her door, her heart sank. They conveyed a need for a "serious talk," and she feared the worst. To her relief, they weren't there about a tragedy but to discuss a viral video she posted.
The officers addressed a playful video filmed in a Bunnings hardware store weeks earlier. Layla, an adult performer, uses social media to promote her OnlyFans profile. In the video, she and a friend humorously placed underwear in the store. Despite amassing 15 million views, Layla clarified it was a harmless joke with no underwear left behind.
The unexpected encounter with law enforcement stemmed from the video's notoriety, highlighting the challenges Layla faced despite her title as New Zealand's "Best Adult Performer" for 2023.
