Popular Australian influencer and OnlyFans star Mikaela Testa has been detained at a US airport and told her followers that she believes that “pretty” women are stopped from entering the country.
Mikaela – who has 491,000 followers on Instagram and 16,200 subscribers on OnlyFans – posted an image of her sitting at US customs and border protection, and a follow-up post reading, “they detained me for four hours.”
The influencer also posted a screenshot of a chat with one of her followers. A fan replied to her previous story writing, “Me 2. They didn’t let me in the country because they thought I was an escort.” Mikaela wrote on the screenshot; “I feel like they think this about any pretty girls. I met so many in detention last night.”
She added, “You aren’t allowed to touch your phone and you have to watch trash American TV advertisements for five hours.”
It is unclear whether Mikaela was able to enter the country after being detained.
It’s Mikaela’s third trip to the US this year, on her last trip she found herself in hot water during her visit to Los Angeles. In the video documenting her visit to Cecil Hotel – the most haunted building in the city – Testa burst into tears due to the hotel’s location. The infamous hotel is part of Skid Row, an area equally infamous for massive issues with poverty and homelessness.
In her video, Testa claimed that driving through the area was ‘heartbreaking,’ but then immediately asked her fans which country’s money they thought was prettier while holding up an Australian dollar and an American dollar.

Needless to say, fans called her out on her insensitive content. Many pointed out the irony of driving through Skid Row in a Tesla – which Testa had rented for the trip – and the cruelty of depicting homelessness before asking people to compare the aesthetic value of money.
