As unemployment numbers soar amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Blac Chyna is offering fans the opportunity to have a personal FaceTime with her for just $950, according to her website. She's even offering a prospective customers a deal of four interest-free payments of $237.50.
Through her company Lashed Cosmetics, the 31-year-old reality TV star is also offering anyone willing to shelve out $250 a follow on social media.
In an interview with Page Six, her lawyer Lynne Ciani said Chyna was "adapting to current realities and trying to bring more fun and joy to quarantine life.”
“Chyna’s quarantine-related creativity is also born out of economic necessity. Despite many false media reports to the contrary. Chyna receives no child support from either Rob Kardashian or Tyga for her two beautiful children, Dream Kardashian and King Cairo Stevenson,” Ciani said.
Ciani added that the vixen is currently embroiled in a costly legal battle with Rob Kardashian after being engaged to him for nearly eight months in 2016.
Chyna's lawyer explained in a statement to US Weekly that the Kardashian family has called her an "unfit mother" in court and is allegedly trying to take Dream Kardashian away from her.
“These unwarranted custody battles are not cheap — and unlike a certain allegedly ‘self-made’ billionaire in Rob’s family, Chyna is truly a self-made single mom who must keep finding unique ways to connect with her fans during this unprecedented global pandemic. Chyna looks forward to FaceTiming with her ‘Chyna Doll’ fans from around the world and to following fans on IG who want to share their lives with her!”
The internet roasted Chyna for the decision but also questioned anyone who would spend that kind of money on one FaceTime session.

Celebrities who normally made money from appearances at clubs and events are also now trying to transition their business to online platforms. Actress Tori Spelling recently offered a similar deal to her fans, telling her audience on Instagram that she would meet with people virtually for $95.
It's unclear if anyone has taken dear Chyna up on her offer.
