Bonnie Blue, a provocative figure in the sex work industry, has been stirring up controversy with her bold declaration to make a comeback to Australia for the Schoolies event in 2025. However, this claim seems to be more of a publicity stunt than a feasible plan, given the legal hurdles she faces.

According to sources within the government, Blue, who is 26, faces significant barriers in her attempt to return to Australia. She was deported last year after plans surfaced that she intended to film with young adults on the Gold Coast, sparking public outrage. As a result, she is subject to a mandatory exclusion period that bars her from re-entering the country until late 2026.

Typically, when a visa is revoked, the individual is automatically banned for three years. To bypass this restriction, Blue, whose real name is Tia Bellenger, would have to secure a waiver. This is a challenging process, usually reserved for extraordinary circumstances that are unlikely to apply to her case, especially considering her intended purpose for returning.

Despite these obstacles, Blue has confidently asserted on the television program A Current Affair that she has ‘good lawyers’ and proclaimed her intentions to be part of the Schoolies festivities this year. She hinted at the chaos her presence might cause, suggesting it would lead to ‘the biggest uproar’ among concerned parents.

Nonetheless, insiders from the Department of Home Affairs have dismissed her claims as unrealistic. They maintain that the possibility of her appearing at the Gold Coast, a hotspot for Schoolies celebrations, is nothing short of a fantasy.

But Home Affairs insiders say any chance of Blue turning up on the Gold Coast – the spot most traditionally associated with Schoolies – is pure fantasy.

Australian adult star Annie Knight, 28, a former friend and collaborator of Blue, has blown the whistle on what Blue is allegedly doing instead.

White recently claimed Bonnie is in Bali, creating content to pretend she’s in Australia during Schoolies Week.

‘Her visa is cancelled. She can’t come to Australia, she doesn’t have a lawyer who can change Australian laws,’ she told News Corp. 

‘I know with 100 per cent certainty she’s in Bali right now getting content to post in three weeks’ time.’

During an interview with 60 Minutes host Ali Langdon recently, Blue coyly hinted she could be back in Australia in a matter of weeks. 

‘I don’t want to give too much away, but let’s just say I’ve got good lawyers and I will be doing Schoolies this year,’ she said. 

Shocked, Langdon replied: ‘I cannot believe the Australian Government is allowing you back into the country.’

‘A good lawyer gets you a very long way, maybe even Down Under,’ Blue teased.

But Blue did not specify she was doing Schoolies in Australia. She did, however, agree that any possible return to Australia would cause controversy – especially for parents of freshly 18-year-old sons. 

‘I don’t want to give too much away, but let’s just say I’ve got good lawyers and I will be doing Schoolies this year,’ Blue told 60 Minutes host Ali Langdon in an episode aired on Monday

‘I think it’s going to frustrate a lot of parents. So I am very excited for Schoolies. I think this is going to cause the biggest uproar this year,’ she said.

Bonnie did not reveal what steps she was taking to win back her Australian visa, but claimed there was ‘a lot of work’ that goes on behind the scenes. 

The Department of Home Affairs refused to comment on Blue’s individual case when contacted by Daily Mail.

Blue was banned from Australia last year over her smutty Schoolies plans after a Change.org petition was signed by tens of thousands of furious Aussies. 

Petition starter Bambi C wrote that ‘Bonnie finds [Schoolies] the perfect opportunity to find young boys to prey on and record sexual content to sell’. 

‘This is her sole working job whilst living in Australia from the UK. How is she contributing to our society?’ Bambi asked.

Child safety expert Kristi McVee also vehemently opposed Blue’s plans saying: ‘If this was a male [OnlyFans] creator targeting ‘barely legal’ young women, we would be up in arms, they would be called paedophiles.’

‘They’re just jealous, like the hate is coming from middle-aged women that don’t understand,’ Blue said to Daily Mail at the time.

Home Affairs minister Tony Burke said: ‘The Australian visa system has rules. If you don’t intend to obey those rules, don’t apply.’ 

Daily Mail contacted Bonnie Blue for comment.
