In January 2017, xHamster reported that she was the most-searched-for adult actress of 2016. In 2018, she became the most-searched-for actress on Pornhub. After leaving the adult industry, Khalifa has worked as a webcam model, OnlyFans creator, and sports commentator. She launched her own line of jewelry in 2023.
