A man has gone viral for jokingly claiming he's now dating Sydney Sweeney after she slid in his DMs. Aussie Miles Shepherd turned to TikTok to share his casual day at the beach which took a bizarre turn. In the clip that racked up four million views online, Miles was left starstruck when the Euphoria actress appeared out of nowhere. His video not only caught the attention of fellow TikTokers and the media, but also Sweeney herself who dropped him a message on Instagram reading: "u should've said hi". People were desperate to know what he responded – and he certainly did not disappoint by sharing that he asked her out. His follow-up clips then hilariously joked the pair were now dating. @mileshep #goldcoast #aus #beach #fyp #sydney #sydneysweeney "Obviously, the DMs between myself and Sydney have gone completely viral. So just wanted to come on here and tell the truth of the matter, which is Sydney and I are now seeing each other," he humoured. "And you know, the last few days has been like a movie, some would say it’s like we’re filming our own little rom-com." "For those of you saying she’s engaged, like, I don’t see a ring on. I don’t see a ring there. So we’re working through that – that’s all getting organised behind the scenes," he continued. @mileshep Replying to @rubyxcw pressure moments. Does this stand up?? #sydneysweeney #goldcoast #beach #dm Miles went on to jokingly ask people to respect their privacy. The clips were soon flooded with comments from TikTokers left in hysterics. "Well done for playing along mate," one wrote, while another added: "Can't wait for the wedding." Meanwhile, a third said: "You’re genuinely so funny. good for you mate seriously."

Iggy Azalea and Cardi B have reportedly become two of OnlyFans' top-earning creators on the platform. The subscription site has transformed many ordinary peoples' lifestyles over the years, with many switching their regular 9-5 for their lucrative side hustle full time. Celebrities have caught wind of OnlyFans' success, and have too, jumped on the bandwagon. For most, it's seemingly paying off with Cardi B raking in $45 million since joining the platform. However, rapper Iggy Azalea took the top spot by making an alleged $48 million in less than a year. The 'Fancy' singer joined OnlyFans back in January. There were later reports that she had made hundreds of thousands of dollars in just 24 hours, which she called numbers "outta thin air". "Lol, Y'all just be saying s*** to say s*** at this point cause that number was pulled outta thin air," she wrote at the time. In another tweet, Azalea also noted that she wouldn't reveal how much money she makes on Only Fans, similar to how she didn't share what made after selling her "music catalog." "Amounts being reported don't come from a valid source. Thanks to everyone supporting me," she added. She also went on to share her most common OnlyFans request during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s talk show Watch What Happens Live. In February, she candidly told the host: "'They'll be like, 'Goddess Iggy. Please, please, please, please. I know that you don't have time for my tiny little thing, but please can you just tell me what you think about it?'" "And then I'll be like, 'Ugh! That's disgusting! Is that even a f**king d**k? You call that a f**king d**k? That's not a d**k. Why are you wasting my time with this? "Send me fifty dollars right now and don't you f**king message me again unless you give me fifty dollars next time'."
