Controversial adult star Bonnie Blue has spoken out after her arrest with a defiant statement. Police and immigration officials have also issued a huge update on their investigation
Bonnie Blue has broken her silence with a brazen message after her arrest in Bali on suspicion of breaking strict ‘morality’ laws, as police and immigration officers decide her fate.
The controversial adult star was hauled into a jail cell last Thursday after furious locals told police that she had hired a truck to travel around the holiday island and film explicit content with “barely legal” students. Bonnie bragged about her lewd plans before flying over to Bali, encouraging lads who were in the country for “Schoolies” – an Australian post-high-school celebration – to come and join her.
As a Muslim-majority country, Indonesia takes a tough line on distributing, producing or publicly displaying adult content, and the star was potentially facing up to 15 years prison and a fine of about £270,000 if convicted of pornography offences.
Law enforcement found a slew of racy items in her rental studio, including “school Bonnie Blue” outfits, Viagra, condoms, cameras, flash drives and lubricant. Bonnie was arrested alongside 17 male tourists, but 14 of the men were released without charge while the adult star and three other men remained under investigation. The foursome were let out of jail but faced two days of questioning by immigration and had their passports seized.

The 26-year-old, real name is Tia Billinger, has since made her first statement since she was locked up. While walking into the Ngurah Rai Immigration Office in Jimbaran, south of Kutam, on Wednesday, she was quizzed on whether she planned on making more explicit content in Bali. Clearly unphased by the threat of prison time, Bonnie replied bluntly: “Subscribe and you’ll find out.” However, she was more coy about her when she was asked about whether she was heading home soon, reportedly remaining silent.
And now major update has emerged as police have provided fresh details about their investigation. Yesterday, it was confirmed that officials found no evidence of pornographic content, meaning Bonnie and three other men have escaped a conviction.
Aiptu Ni Nyoman Ayu Inastuti, Acting Head of the Public Relations Sub-Division of the Badung Police, said: “When they were raided, they were making collab content about a game where the winner would sleep with Bonnie Blue. No pornographic activities or acts have been found in the collaborative content.”
But that doesn’t mean she’s come away from the whole saga scot-free. Today, at a press conference outside the Ngurah Rai Immigration Office on Thursday, Immigration chief Heru Winarko confirmed that the adult star had breached her travel visa privileges, and would therefore be deported, Australia’s Daily Telegraph reports.
He explained: “They have misused the visa they have to make content in Bali. They will be black-listed from entering Indonesia for at least 10 years (that) could be extended. Once police has finished with the investigation, after that we will deport them and put them (on) the blacklist.”
At the same conference, Badung Police said that Bonnie and the three other men are now facing trial over the purchase of her blue “Bang bus” over its alleged lack of vehicle registration, local publication detikBali reports.
“One of the two British men in Blue’s entourage are also accused of not having an international driving licence while driving the open-back vehicle, seen in a slew of videos online,” the publication claimed. “While in Bali, BB (Bonnie Blue) should have been travelling, but instead she was creating content,” Police Chief Arif Batubara said.
The top cop added that the Bonnie’s purchase of a blue pickup truck for her content creation could be considered a violation, with the adult star and the British man Bonnie scheduled to appear in Denpasar District Court over the alleged offence on Friday.
It’s not the first time Bonnie has faced issued in a foreign country. She is also banned from Australia and Fiji after her plans to sleep with 18-year-old boys for content during ‘Schoolies Week’ infuriated Aussie parents. A 20,000-strong petition ensued, and her visa was revoked. However, last month, she brazenly bragged about the ban and insisted that she was still planning to go ahead with her controversial ‘Schoolies’ event despite the uproar.
“Every year the government and the middle-aged mums try to ban me from Schoolies,” she said in a video. “But this year it is impossible to ban me. With good lawyers, a lot of money, flights, villa, and the boys lined up, I cannot wait to do Schoolies 2025 bigger than ever.”
