Titus also accepts custom requests from his audience when creating content for his OnlyFans account, stating that he has received numerous weird requests.
“I got one request, it’s very weird. So like topless, in my only uniform, eating cup noodles.”[22]
Other endeavors

Titus has also mentioned wanting to move to London, Los Angeles or other cities to continue his OnlyFans work.[24] He has also shared on web series talk show Careless Whispers that he only regrets not starting OnlyFans earlier. “Because I only got on OnlyFans last year, so it’s [been] less than a year.”[25]
Only Creamery
In September 2022, Titus opened Only Creamery, a gelato cafe in Chinatown. The business owner told 8days that his “branding was very sexual, so I thought OnlyCream, OnlyCreamery were interesting names. It’s meant to be a joke.”[26]
The 45-seat cafe offers 18 gelato and sorbet flavours that were cooked up in collaboration with Hundred Acre Creamery. Prices start at $5 for a single scoop and $9 for a double scoop. Premium flavours will cost an additional $1.[27]

Controversies and newsworthy incidents
TikTok video with Ms Puiyi (2022)
On 4 October 2022, Ms Puiyi, a Malaysian model and influencer posted a now-deleted TikTok with Titus, hinting at a possible collaboration.[29] In the video, the pair were seen behaving intimately, with Ms Puiyi leaning against Titus’s chest as he strokes her chin.[29]
Following this, Titus’s wife Cheryl commented "I guess this is content but there's boundaries, no? 😅" under the video, but the comment was soon deleted.[29] Cheryl also posted a now-deleted video with the caption, "Nobody in the world deserves to go through this even if it was all for content.". Cheryl was also seen crying in the video.[29]
Titus received intense backlash from netizens following this incident, with many saying that he should not have behaved like that, especially as a married man.[29] Both Ms Puiyi and Cheryl have since cleared the air, stating that the whole incident was a “misunderstanding”.[29]
Cheryl later clarified that the video of her crying was from “a previous mental breakdown” and apologised again for “airing [her] dirty laundry”.[30] She also said that she was “aware” of the potential collaboration between Ms Puiyi and Titus.[30]
Ms Puiyi and her team also released a statement saying that they “will not be uploading any collaborations or any teasers or any collaborations in any near future until the issues are resolved.”[31]
Titus himself released a TikTok video addressing the incident.[32] In it, he reiterates the communication issue between the three parties involved and said that he would “take care to ensure that [it] will not happen again”.[32]
Leaked content and police investigations (October 2021)
Titus has had his OnlyFans content, which is locked behind a paywall, leaked by others before.[21] In October 2021, police visited Titus at his apartment on grounds that his nudes had been circulating around social media platforms like WhatsApp and Twitter.[21] Titus’s phone and iPad were subsequently surrendered to the authorities in order to aid in the investigation.
“A challenge I continue to face is from people who leak my content. It’s just not cool, you know, imagine the hard work you put into your content—then people resell it, and you get no profit at all. It’s not fair.”[21]
Titus speculated that his content might have possibly been leaked by his competitors as a result of jealousy.[10]
Court charges
On 30 December 2021, Titus appeared in a district court after he allegedly continued accessing his OnlyFans account despite being given a police order not to do so.[33] As a result, he was charged under the Criminal Procedure code for failing to comply with the aforementioned police order.[33]
At the same time, he was given two charges for transmitting obscene materials by electronic means.[34]
Titus was granted bail worth $5,000 with conditions such as staying off OnlyFans and avoiding interaction with prosecution witnesses.[20] As of February 2022, he is facing a total of 5 charges and up to 21 months in prison.[35]
On 12 October 2022, AsiaOne uploaded an article revealing that Titus had been fined a total of $3,000 and three weeks of jail time for "transmitting obscene materials on online subscription-based platform OnlyFans and continuing to access his account despite the authorities warning him not to do so."[36] It was also revealed that Titus had breached police orders to not access his OnlyFans account post-surrender on 12 October 2021, whilst investigation of the case was ongoing. However, on the same day he had given the police his login details, he had also reached out to OnlyFans to regain access to his account, and continued uploading content.[36]
Titus addresses his charges in a YouTube video
On 16 October, Titus released a YouTube video titled "Im going to jail as a OnlyFans creator?!" where he detailed the reasons for his jail sentence.[37] He also took the time to do some Q&A with his Instagram followers.[37]
Titus shared that he was glad the case was closed and he just wants to serve this sentence and start a new chapter in his life. He went on to say that he only breached the Police order out of desperation, feeling obliged to continuing providing his subscribers with content as they'd already paid in advance. With remission, Titus will have to stay in jail for 14 days.[37]
