Mormons take their rituals and secrets seriously. That’s why many are outraged after OnlyFans star Kari Keone revealed details and even photos of infamous ‘temple garments’ on X. The content creator was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 1990s but left the church and now creates x-rated content on the subscription-based content platform OnlyFans. (For $30 she’ll rate your male member if you’re so inclined.)
But it’s not the 160+ posts she’s already shared on OnlyFans to subscribers that’s raising the church’s eyebrows. It’s how she shared all those details about the ‘magic underwear’ — that’s what Keone called them in her posts where she added: ”One cool fact about the magic underwear is that you’re never supposed to take it off. This includes sex. You’re supposed to have sex with the underwear on at all times.”
She didn’t stop there.
“I got married super young — at age 22 — and we lived with my Mormon mother-in-law and father-in-law for a bit because my husband had some debt we were paying off,” the OnlyFans creator shared. “I accidentally touched his dad’s magic underwear doing laundry and his mom cut the runes out of it and burned them in the backyard.”
Yes, you read that right. Those runes are ancient symbols and are sacred to church members. And Keone shared them publicly to X, along with photos of the garments themselves. According to the website for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, temple garments should be treated the same as religious vestments of other faiths. Any sort of ridicule or mocking is incredibly offensive.
Perhaps that’s why Keone didn’t back down as she shared photos of the boxer brief-style shorts and a matching T-shirt temple garments that members of the church have worn since the 1840s. And those posts got a lot of comments, most of them shocked or confused by the garments.
“Every single thing about this story is insane,” wrote one X user. Another added “and I thought growing up evangelical was weird.”
Another asked, “Is there a Mormon Amazon you can buy magic undies at? Do different runes give different powers? What if I mix and match them? Why aren’t all undies considered magic….”
Of course, there was pushback from members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. An attorney and member of the church, Jim Harman, wrote an entire blog post about the garments, sharing why members wear these garments.
“Mormons wear temple undergarments under their normal clothes to remind them of promises they made to always remember God. It is a physical reminder of our spiritual covenants with God.”
He continued in the post, “People of goodwill can show respect for our religion by referring to the Mormon temple garment by its actual name and not mockingly refer to it as ‘Mormon underwear,’ because it has far more significance to us than a normal undergarment.”
While it may be significant to members of the church, it’s clear that it’s lost all significance to Keone and others like her. She doesn’t seem worried, though, having left that life far behind for her preferred x-rated antics on OnlyFans.
