Former adult film star and social media personality Mia Khalifa went viral after revealing she won a substantial payout by betting $1 million on Spain to defeat Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
After Spain secured the title, Khalifa shared proof of her winning bet on Instagram and celebrated the result. Before the match, she had acknowledged the risk of the wager, writing, “Was this very irresponsible? Yes.” She later said her support for Spain was primarily motivated by the potential financial reward.
Her posts also included comments celebrating Argentina’s defeat and a photo wearing a Lamine Yamal Barcelona jersey, accompanied by the message “Free Palestine.” The publications sparked strong reactions on social media, particularly from Argentine fans, with her comments and seven-figure bet becoming widely discussed following the World Cup final.
