OnlyFans star Kay Manuel has confirmed she is not a biological woman and admitted she lied to Daily Mail Australia when she dismissed speculation she was transgender.
The 22-year-old made headlines this week when she bragged about sleeping with 75 high school dropouts in her first two days at Schoolies on the Gold Coast.
Before Schoolies started, she claimed she had her sights set on breaking a new record of bedding more than 1,000 boys in two weeks.
It follows her claims that she slept with 250 secondary school leavers during last year’s Schoolies celebrations.
Manuel told this publication a few days ago that she was born a woman, adding that if she were transgender, she would not hide it.
She continued this lie even when she received photos from an old Facebook account of a young man who online sleuths claim is Manuel.
‘We look a lot alike, but no, I’m not… and no, I’m not trans. I think it’s because I have a deep voice,” she told Daily Mail Australia this week.
But now Manuel has confirmed that she is not a biological woman and that her plans to sleep with dozens of college dropouts are just a publicity stunt.

“I think some people have always speculated. I don’t call myself transgender. I never did that. I think that term – you’re just calling yourself a man, so at that point you might as well call yourself that,” she told the Courier mail.
“I understand there may be questions, but it’s really no one’s (the public’s) business.”
Manuel said she lied about the number of school leavers she had slept with this year’s Schoolies after she was confronted by reporters on the Gold Coast.
Now she’s reconsidering her plan to create X-rated content with dozens of teens.
“I haven’t had to announce it this year because I haven’t filmed with anyone,” she said, adding that everyone involved in last year’s Schoolies stunt had been informed.
‘Every person I’ve filmed with (in the past) has had a good experience – there were two people last year who asked to have their content removed, and that was because they were going for a government job, one was so never posted in the editing phase and the other was immediately deleted.’
It comes after Manuel told Daily Mail Australia this week that there was “no truth” that she had been nominated for “best transgender porn star” for two years at an adult industry awards ceremony last year.
She claimed it was a mistake by the show’s organizers.

“I talked to the awards about it… and they just said it wasn’t true because I didn’t win anything,” she said.
Locals from Manuel’s hometown of Coffs Harbor on the NSW north coast have since come forward, saying she was previously known as Kayden Tai Manuel.
“It’s incredibly common knowledge,” said an acquaintance.
‘Coffs is not always an open-minded town and gossip about her transitioning to a woman circulated in group chats along the coast.’
A former school friend, Zahra, who until recently also posted sexual content on OnlyFans, claimed she had been in contact with Manuel over the years, including when she transitioned to female and began identifying as Kay Manuel full-time.
“I have messages from her personally confirming that she is transgender,” Zahra said.
“When I messaged her in November [last year] asking if she had done that [genital reassignment] operation she replied: “I wanted to”.’
It is understood that Manuel has since undergone that surgery.

A former colleague who worked with Kay at a McDonalds restaurant on the NSW north coast recalls her expressing an interest in the transition in 2018.
“She was openly gay for most of high school, but didn’t show an outward interest in becoming trans until she was 17,” the ex-colleague said.
“Even before her surgery, she dressed as a woman.”
This is the second year Manuel has joined Schoolies parties to recruit teenagers to film sex on camera, with the videos shared on subscription platforms.
“If I were trans, of course I would communicate that to the men I film with,” she told this publication.
Participants must provide ID proving they are over 18, take a sobriety test, and sign multiple consent forms for the various platforms Manuel uses to distribute her adult content.
They can also hide their identity and have the option to withdraw consent once filming is completed.
