Bonnie Blue has been “blacklisted” from Indonesia for at least a decade, slapped with a fine and ordered to leave the country following her arrest in Bali.
According to The Daily Telegraph, the former OnlyFans star (real name Tia Billinger) and a member of her team, Liam Andrew Jackson, faced Denpasar District Court on Friday, December 12, accused of road rule violations related to Blue’s controversial “Bangbus.”
Blue, 26, and Jackson were each given the option of one month in jail or a fine of IDR200,000 (approximately USD$13) and both chose the latter option, per the outlet. Blue was warned by the judge not to flout Indonesia road rules again to which she responded, “I understand.”
The Telegraph also reported that Blue did not ultimately face trial over more serious charges after a police investigation found no evidence that the adult content creator was making pornographic content while in Bali.
OnlyFans influencer Annie Knight said it’s “hard to feel sorry” for former friend Bonnie Blue after Blue’s reported arrest in Bali last week. “In my industry, anytime you go overseas you have to be aware of the laws surrounding sex-work in the country you are visiting,” Knight exclusively told Us Weekly. “I always am super […]
According to 9News on Friday, Blue and Jackson were convicted of improperly using an open-back utility vehicle in violation of Indonesian traffic regulations.
The Telegraph reported that Blue and her crew were ordered by Immigration officials on Thursday to leave the country within 48 hours. Her lawyer Edward Pankahila said Blue was planning to reschedule her flight to leave the country on Friday night, per the outlet.
Approached ahead of her court appearance, Blue reportedly made crude remarks to the media pack, telling them, “Hi boys…usually it’s other things in my face.”
According to local media publication, detikBali, Blue insisted she was not fazed by her legal troubles, telling reporters before her trial, “There’s nothing I can’t handle.”

The Daily Telegraph reported immigration officials told the media on Thursday that Blue had violated her tourist visa by creating other content.
“They have misused the visa they have to make content in Bali,” Indonesia’s Immigration chief Heru Winarko told reporters. “They will be blacklisted from entering Indonesia for at least 10 years [that] could be extended.
Winarko continued, “Once police has finished with the investigation, after that we will deport them and put them [on] the blacklist.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Blue’s representatives for comment.
News broke on December 5 that Blue and a group of men had been arrested following a police raid and were taken into custody after allegedly making X-rated material.
Badung Police Chief Arif Batubara told Indonesian outlet Bali Express that the raid came after reports of an alleged pornographic video being created. Authorities allegedly proceeded to raid a vacation rental, which the outlet reported is the suspected location for creation of “content containing pornographic or immoral elements.”
“We can confirm for now that they’ve been arrested and have multiple charges that they’re investigating her on. She is going to court on Friday,” a rep for Blue exclusively told Us on Wednesday. “They still don’t have any of their phones or passports and are still being interrogated daily.”
Blue was in Bali for “Schoolies,” an event where recently graduated Australian teenagers let off steam to celebrate finishing their high school education.
Prior to the event, Blue had been banned from Australia after announcing her plans to film content at a local Schoolies event. The country reportedly revoked her visa after she requested for “barely legal” 18-year-olds to film content with her. News.com.au reported in November 2024 that Blue’s visa was canceled on the grounds that she was planning to violate her approved visa by working in Australia.
