A 30-year-old OnlyFans star has defended her age-gap relationship with a 51-year-old rapper after online trolls accused her of having “daddy issues” and using him for his money.
Sarah Russi moved to Michigan to work with Joe Bruce, best known as Violent J, half of the hip-hop duo Insane Clown Posse. They opened up about their controversial relationship in a new episode of the Truly series Love does not judge.
Joe explained that he was following the webcam model on social media when he slipped into her DMs.
“I was browsing Instagram and saw all these hotties. Every time I saw a hottie, I clicked ‘follow’. I was single in my life, you know what I mean? I just sat and watched hotties all day,” he recalled. “She was one of my two favorite hotties.”

Joe said he was following the OnlyFans star on Instagram when he stumbled into her DMs. Sarah admitted that they’ve been given “a lot of judgment” about their relationship
Sarah admitted she didn’t know who he was, but her interest was piqued thanks to the blue tick next to his name, which indicated that his account had been verified.
“I think the first time I saw him with face paint was a little weird for me,” she said of her boyfriend’s personality on stage. ‘I was a little scared. I don’t mind the face paint now, but I prefer it without the face paint.’
She told him that Joe had a boyfriend, but the relationship soon ended.
“I put my claim on it, you know what I mean?” Joe said of his pursuit of the adult entertainer. I thought, “Oh, this is my new real estate. I’m moving in for the hell.”
The couple claimed that they are happy together but they faced backlash online due to their age difference.
“We have a lot of judgment about our relationship. The first time I posted a picture of me and him on Facebook, I got over a thousand comments,” she says. “A lot of the criticism we’ve had is because of the age difference and who he is.”
Sarah scrolled through her Instagram and read aloud some of the hateful messages they had received.
‘Freaks of nature! And sick if you ask me and probably fake for publicity!’ one person responded.
“A lot of the criticism we’ve gotten is because of the age difference and who he is,” she explained, saying online trolls accused her of using him for his money
“I may or may not have daddy issues,” admitted Sarah, who has a penchant for dating older men (pictured with a former flame)
Sarah also shared that Joe would rather she “do something else for a living,” but in the end he supports her OnlyFans fame
“If this is real, this is disgusting,” someone else commented.
“You and your father look so good together!” another added.
Sarah noted that she was not deterred by the comments as she had been criticized for having past relationships with older men.
“I may or may not have daddy issues,” she admitted.
Another struggle for the couple is their unconventional career.
“Me and the guys, you know, we’re coming out of a concert, it’s midnight, we’re going to strip clubs. That’s exactly where we’re going,” Joe said. ‘I’m a clown. I’m fucking unconventional, but she’s learned to be okay with it, and I do the same.
“I’m all for OnlyFans. Let me be clear about that. A chance to make money? I’m all for it,” he insisted. “But if it’s your wife, it gets really suspicious. All that direct communication was difficult, because that’s her business.’
Sarah shared that Joe would rather she “did something else for a living,” but he shows his support by sending her videos for inspiration.
“I don’t interact with guys on my OnlyFans, but I do hook up with girls on my OnlyFans,” she said, and Joe made it clear that he wished she would let him join in every once in a while
The couple was later visited by Joe’s old friend Rudy, who was suspicious of Sarah due to her OnlyFans fame. However, Joe stressed that it’s her career and nothing more
“There’s a lot I like about Sarah. I’m happier, you know?’ Joe said about his much younger girlfriend. “Man, I don’t have much life left, you know what I mean?”
“I don’t hook up with guys on my OnlyFans, but I do hook up with girls on my OnlyFans,” she explained.
“You can hang out with all the hotties you want, because it’s your job. I’m a rock star so it’s my job to fuck hotties too,” Joe said of his desire to be with her and another woman.
Sarah said she was “considering” letting him join, but she is “very jealous.”
The couple were later visited by Joe’s old friend Rudy, who was “old school” and distrustful of Sarah due to her OnlyFans fame.
“I know Joe Bruce, and when he gives his all, he gives his all 100 percent,” he said. “So if he has to give everything to someone else who shows her everything, it’s going to be kind of hard. I’m just afraid Joe could be the flavor of the month.’
When Rudy sat down with the couple, Sarah insisted “it was the real deal.”
“I really like him, and I hope we have a long-term relationship,” she said, but she was taken aback when Rudy asked if she loved Joe.
“Um, we haven’t said that yet,” she explained. “I have a lot of feelings for him.”
Joe stressed to Rudy that OnlyFans is a job for Sarah, saying “she’s busy every day.”
“Most importantly, throw me a bone, since you’re having sex with all these beautiful women,” he joked, which got both his boyfriend and girlfriend laughing.
“What I like most about him, I think, is probably his sense of humor,” Sarah said. ‘He’s really funny. He makes me laugh. Like we’re having a lot of fun when we go out. I think we want to work towards living together one day.’
Joe added that he wanted to be with Sarah because she makes him happy.
“She’s a little shortstack hottie. Her smile is really great,’ he said. “There’s a lot I like about Sarah. I’m happier, you know? Man, I don’t have much life left, you know what I mean? That’s the key. To be happy.’
