That MGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario. Let's talk about these scams. This isn't anything new. It happens with adult actors. It happens with mainstream actors. And people fall for it. I really do feel bad, because you
Starting point is 00:02:09 don't want people to get scammed. And I get mad. Pricks use my photos and other girls' photos to scam fans. I had a guy who came in when I was doing an appearance. He came in. He had an online relationship for two years. He thought it was me. He was literally in love, ready to marry the fake me it was wild yeah all right Nikki Benz
Starting point is 00:02:33 here and she's gonna bust this myth on how to measure your dig right off the bat right off the bat so a lot of guys measure it from the balls up right like underneath the cock you can't do, because that adds fake length. You have to do it on top. Take your ruler and put it on top of your deck. That's the proper way to measure it. So I just lost half an inch. You probably did, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:55 I would ask you how big you are, but I feel like it's inappropriate. Yeah, I don't know if my girl wants the world knowing. No, I'll just ask her directly. Yeah, you could ask her. Yeah. But I don't know. But I think when you go home tonight, you should re-asure it. Okay and see where we're at. I might hurt my ego. That's okay
Starting point is 00:03:10 What's the most someone's lie to you about their their size? Oh guys lie all the time guys lie Guys lie about how many girls they slept with I had a few guys lie on me saying that they Slept with me and they never have which is so crazy But yeah guys lie about everything. Don't they? Girls lie about their body counts too though. Like they usually lower it, right? Lower, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:30 And guys over inflate. They do, they do. It's an ego thing. It is. Yeah. But you're open with yours? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Do you even know yours? So before I do know, before I got into, actually I do, in my personal life I do. I never counted in my adult career. But a lot of people think it's like in the thousands, multiple hundreds, it really isn't. I tend to work a lot with the same actors and that keeps my numbers down.
Starting point is 00:04:01 You know what, I should count it and let you know. But I really don't know on top of my head. Okay. I would assume hundreds at least, but. I need to, I don't know that it's even a hundred. Whoa. Yeah. That's the lowest I've heard for a hundred points. Well, I've always been under contract.
Starting point is 00:04:14 And when you're under contract, you don't shoot as much. And then you literally rotate the same four to five guys with the certain company. And then when you switch companies, it's just another four to five guys. Got it. And it's the same people. I try to kind companies, it's just another four to five guys. It's the same people I try to kind of my fans get annoyed with that and they'll be like, can you use somebody new and I will Yeah, cuz they get bored of the guy as well. But I don't know that it's in the multiple hundreds
Starting point is 00:04:36 I don't really don't think so and in my personal life is pretty low too. Got it Yeah, you having more sex in your personal life or business? When I'm date I so I'm not a serial dater. I don't when I if I don't have a long-term relationship I kind of just I'm very low-key. Okay. Yeah, so more in business then more in business. Wow Yeah, so you're really not craving it outside of business like that. Um, no, I'm very Spicy vanilla like I'm spicy, but I'm vanilla. No, mean? Yeah, a little chai latte or whatever it is. Chai latte. Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:09 You know what? I'm a little bit of a contradiction because I am pretty conservative, but I do adult movies. And a lot of people don't really understand that. And that's OK. But there is the work me, and that's the whole fantasy. And then there's the real me that a lot of people don't know and I'm pretty chill pretty laid-back okay so you're way
Starting point is 00:05:27 different off-screen 100% on-screen it's a persona that I've built it's also part of me but off-screen I'm just in my sweatpants hair up just chill I love being home I'm very I'm not crazy I used to be in my 20s I'm very, I'm not crazy. I used to be in my 20s. I'm just chill. I'm low-key. I think a lot of people when they see the on-screen persona, they just assume I'm that person 24-7. And that's incorrect. No one is.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I mean, real act, mainstream actors are not like that either, right? Just because you see so-and-so in a Batman suit doesn't mean they go home and keep it on. Right. So you'll have weird fans approaching you, thinking you're that person, and then? 100%. Fans just automatically think because they've done or do adult movies, they can get it in there, and they can't.
Starting point is 00:06:16 You've never slept with a fan? I think one of my exes was definitely a closet fan. I just didn't know at the time. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I used to ask him, I used to be like, Who's your favorite performer? What kind of porn do you watch? And he would never tell me.
Starting point is 00:06:30 And then I found like, he used to watch my shit. Aww, you went on his phone when he was sleeping? Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Who doesn't? Girls do that shit, man. Yeah, I love doing that. Why? You find out a lot of stuff that they don't want to tell you. Don't you feel like it's a personal boundary though?

BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario. How do you feel if he did it to you? Well, it is okay.
Starting point is 00:07:47 So, but when I ask him, hey, what kind of porn are you into? And he's secretive about it. I think it's weird. Yeah. You know, especially like I've been with that guy for like over a year and he would never tell me. But I think the porn that he watches was me.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Okay. Did you find any gay porn? No, not with him. Another guy, yeah. Yeah, we can go any gay porn? No, not with him, another guy, yeah. Yeah, oh, we can go into that as well. What happened there? This guy that I dated, I actually used his laptop. I wasn't spying, I just needed to use it,
Starting point is 00:08:15 and I just happened to look at the search engine and he was watching gay porn, and I confronted him about it. He was in denial, he said that it wasn't his laptop It was somebody else's could have been whatever right don't care Years later like I'm talking about 12 years later actually last year We just all found out that he came out out of the closet and he's literally gay Wow, just also okay, but he was just obviously was in denial and what's interesting about him
Starting point is 00:08:44 He dated the hottest freaking girls. Like he always had like the hotties on his roster. Damn. Yeah. He could pull girls. Yeah, he was funny, girls like that, girls like funny. You know what I mean? Like he was average looking, he wasn't like hot, but he was just so funny and quirky.
Starting point is 00:08:59 And I think his personality won over a lot of people. Unfortunately, I was one of them, but yes, I can officially say that I've dated a gay man. Damn. Yeah. Have you dated a trans man? No. Okay. No. No, not my thing, sorry.
Starting point is 00:09:12 That's where you draw the line? Well, yeah, I don't wanna get canceled. I don't wanna get canceled. I love everyone, but not everyone's for me, okay? Let's talk about these scams. Let's talk about it, oh my God. What is going on? So, this isn't anything new, it happens with adult actors,
Starting point is 00:09:31 it happens with mainstream actors, but fans get scammed by people who steal our photos. I'm gonna use myself as an example. They'll steal my photos, they'll create a fake Nicky Benz account. It'll be like Nicky Benz, it'll be misspeltelt and it'll be like one, two, three, four, five. You should already know that's a fake account. And then those fans, or those fans, sorry, those people, those scammers will talk to
Starting point is 00:09:55 my fans. I don't know how they find them online, whatever. And they'll convince them that's really me. They'll convince them that I need money, that I need an iPhone, that I need tickets to this, that the other, get certificates, new car, whatever. And people fall for it. They fall for it, they get scammed, they feel bad, and then somehow by some miracle they find the real me and then they complain about it.
Starting point is 00:10:17 They get mad at me for getting scammed by a fake. So I'm on here saying, guys, please stop getting scammed. Look for the check mark. If you obviously see my account and it has like five plus million people versus somebody that's 300, you know that's not me. I can't believe people thought that. Stop getting scammed. They really do and I feel bad.
Starting point is 00:10:34 I really do feel bad because you don't want people to get scammed. And I get mad that these pricks use my photos and other girls' photos to scam fans. Like they obviously target lonely men, and they talk to them, they develop a relationship. I had a guy who came in when I was doing an appearance. He came in, he started talking to me as if I know him. He's like, hi, it's me, you know? Did you get an iPhone I sent you?
Starting point is 00:10:57 I'm like, I don't even know you, but nice to meet you. And then he had an online relationship for two years. He thought it was me. Whoa. Yeah, he was literally in love, like ready to marry the fake me. It was wild. Damn.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Yeah. And you said he, I think you mentioned $10,000 he sent over the time. That was somebody else. Oh, that was someone else? Yeah, and I don't know if that's true. Like they could have lied to me, but somebody told me they got scammed for $10,000
Starting point is 00:11:20 thinking it was me. Holy crap. And like, I'm never gonna ask people for money like that. Like, join my OnlyFans, great, thank you. Support my work, but I'm not gonna ever say, hey send me 10,000, like that's crazy. What if someone offered 10K for a dinner with you? I'm okay, I can afford my own dinner.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Oh, you wouldn't take that? I wouldn't. Wow. It's no. It's a lot. It's a lot, but no. I mean, but like you have to understand there's like a safety aspect to it too. Why would I do that?
Starting point is 00:11:48 It's not even worth it. You know what I mean? Unless if I did a contest and like people could enter, I don't know, like a contest and like YouTube it, you know? Maybe. Yeah. You can organize it for me. I mean, we'll see what happens, you know?
Starting point is 00:12:04 You don't like anal. I don't, well, oh my God, wow. This is like, that was, hello. All over the place here. I'm going home. You know what? I don't, it's okay. So I prefer not to do anal.
Starting point is 00:12:16 There's just so much work that goes into it. I know I look skinny, but I like to eat. And like, you literally can't eat the night before, you have to starve. I can't do all that. It's too much prep, it's just, I like vaginal sex. I've had anal sex at home with a boyfriend back in the day, I get a little tipsy and I'll be really into it
Starting point is 00:12:35 and I'll be like, yeah, stick it in. But honestly, that probably happened twice my whole life. Yeah, I've done anal scenes on screen, it's just not what I'm known for. I'm not an anal queen. I girl some girls are what gets the most views these days I think milfs interracial and like the whole teeny bopper thing which creeps me out Yeah, like, you know like really young looking girls and they will like tag him as teens even though they're over 18 Yeah, but I think in like four years really yeah, so I don't know what's is it cuz your girl doesn't like you to watch it
Starting point is 00:13:10 She definitely doesn't but it's more spiritual. Let's say okay. Okay. Yeah, I respect it. Yeah. Yeah, I don't really watch porn either Someone like you would be studying it and now I was trending and stuff no no It's weird cuz I don't want to watch a porno cuz I know most the people like it's just weird I assume someone like you would be studying it and No, absolutely not. What's trending and stuff. No, no. It's weird because I don't want to watch a porno because I know most of the people. It's just weird. And I'm not really into that and I also know that it's just work. Fake. Right.
Starting point is 00:13:34 And then I, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Do you date other porn stars? I don't. No. What's a firm role you have? I've never been into, yeah, I've never been into that. I've only dated civilians, a lot of people in the industry.
Starting point is 00:13:47 I call them civilians, they're civilians, right, to me. People in the music industry, I tend to gravitate to that. I just like people in the entertainment industry because they understand what I do and they understand that it's just business, it's entertainment. Civilians, they don't understand it. They get butt hurt, they can't handle it.
Starting point is 00:14:06 I don't wanna go there. I've gone out on a date with a civilian, but it didn't go anywhere. Civilians, you're hilarious. Did you go on Plug Talk? Yes. How was that? It was great.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Yeah? You talking about with the- Adam 22? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh yeah, I did, yes. So you get interviewed first and then you- And then, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Yeah. And you liked it? I thought it was cool. Okay. I mean, I did. Yes, so you get interviewed first and then yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, and you liked it
Starting point is 00:14:26 I thought it was cool. Okay, I I mean put it this way. I give her a lot of props Lena Because I don't think I could do it like I couldn't do that with my man Mm-hmm. I'm greedy, but I think what they have going on is it works for them and it's great Well now he's starting to do it. He's starting to share her Right works for them and it's great. Well, now he's starting to do it. He's starting to share her. Right. Yeah, but if they're into it, right? Like, who are we to say anything?
Starting point is 00:14:49 Like, that people have different things. Yeah, some people can do an open relationship. They can, and I honestly, I couldn't do it. Even though what I do for a living, I couldn't share my guy like that. How much longer do you want to keep doing this? Do you have like a plan? So it's, yes, I do.
Starting point is 00:15:06 I thought I was going to stop the adult industry a while ago. And then OnlyFans came about. And that changed the whole playing field for everyone, really, because the amount of money we make off of being on OnlyFans differs way greater than it was before. You know greater than it was before. You know, like it changed the, I mean, OnlyFans helped me buy more properties, secure my future, you know, give back. I'm like able to give back as well, which is nice.
Starting point is 00:15:37 And then it's a good question though, because I look at girls who are older than me and they're freaking killing it because the whole like MILF genre is just explosive. Like it does really, really well. And I thought about it, I'm like, well, why would I walk away from making money? More money than I made. I make more money a month now than I made in a whole year when I was just being under contract with the company
Starting point is 00:16:02 prior to OnlyFans. That's crazy. Yeah, so I don't wanna walk away from that. I wanna like invest, I wanna do more, I wanna buy more properties, I wanna make sure that I'm set when I'm retiring. Smart, you're planning ahead. Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Dang, I didn't know mils were like the hottest category. That's interesting. That and I think interracial. Interracial. Because I know, you know company Blacked? I've heard of them. It's a vixen group company, but they're killing it. That's their highest, I think, earner
Starting point is 00:16:28 out of all their sites that they have. So it's just a black guy and a white girl? Yeah, it does really, really well. People are into that. Into that, yeah. What? That's crazy to me. I would have thought lesbian or...
Starting point is 00:16:39 I don't think lesbian's up. See, for me, so I used to do girl-girl scenes. Yeah, yeah. And they, when I produce all my own content now, because of OnlyFans, it doesn't sell for me. What? Girl-girl doesn't sell? Not the way, my solo scenes actually do better for me
Starting point is 00:16:56 than boy-girl or girl-girl. Whoa. Yes, I know a lot of people don't believe it and I'll tell you why. When I do a solo video, the fan that's watching it at home is imagining him with me. It's like that more intimate experience versus seeing a guy in me than he knows.
Starting point is 00:17:13 He's not part of that equation. And some guys are just literally not into girl, girl. I think it's like for me, it's the least selling sort of content that I put out. Interesting. So are you fully just on O.F. now and you're not even doing the other stuff? I do fully O.F. but here and there
Starting point is 00:17:28 I'll do a mainstream scene. Got it. If it's like a big name. Absolutely, yeah. Have you done Dread yet? Yes. I worked with him. Yeah, he's a big boy.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Yeah, it was, it's not, honestly, it's not an easy scene to do, but he's like just the nicest guy. Honestly, one of the coolest people you'll ever meet, and he just makes you so comfortable. And don't worry, guys, your vagina shrinks after. OK. So it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Stop trying it. There's that classic myth. It goes back in. Don't worry. But yeah, he's a hard one to work with. Is he all natty? Because some guys get that surgery to make it longer. No, he's natural.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Wow. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You should have him on, because he's natural. Wow. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You should have him on, because he's an awesome person. I'd love to get to know who he is outside of. You'll get a lot of views by having him on. Yeah. Yeah, he doesn't really go on shows, I noticed.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I can ask him if he'll come on. OK. Shout out to Dread, man. Let's get to hear the personal side of you, man. No, Dread's awesome. You'll love him. Yeah, he's just cool people. Yeah, because imagine being known just for that like yeah probably wants other
Starting point is 00:18:27 opinions out there of stuff of his life right? Yeah he'll if you have him on he'll share his interesting life story but yeah I've been I've interviewed him before as well for a podcast with Ryan. Hell yeah. Did you enter the space 18 right in college or? Did I what? Adult industry space. Did you start when you were still young? I started right before my 21st birthday and I'm glad I did that. I'm glad I waited because I feel like at 21,
Starting point is 00:18:53 you're definitely a lot smarter and wiser than 18. So and when I entered the industry, I didn't wanna do it just to do it, make a quick buck. I knew that I wanted to do it, make money, but do more with, it's like a stepping stone to greater things. I'm honestly so grateful for the adult industry and I know a lot of people are bag on it,
Starting point is 00:19:14 they watch porn and they talk shit about porn stars, but it's like, it's a whole ecosystem that's going on. There's the adult stars, the makeup artists that are involved, the cameraman production, PAs, and like we all do well because of the adult stars, the makeup artists that are involved, the cameraman, production, PAs, and like, we all do well because of the adult industry, and I'm very grateful for that, and grateful to the fans as well.
Starting point is 00:19:32 But when you get into adult industry, a lot of girls, and it's unfortunate, they'll get in because they need a quick buck, and you can make that as a girl, and then they get out. But your face is online forever, and then that kinda can dampen your life a little bit. Cause it's hard. You make a sacrifice by being in the adult industry
Starting point is 00:19:50 because a lot of doors do get closed down to you, unfortunately, it's just how it is. But if you're smart about it and turn it into a business, you can do a lot and you can make a lot of money. And if you invest properly, if you buy properties and whatnot you wanna do, you can do really well for yourself. Yeah, you've crushed it with that.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Who taught you the investing side of things? Honestly, kind of myself. Wow. Yeah, I just, I read a lot. I obviously get, I, you know, read a lot. I knew that real estate's the way to go, but I also have stocks. I've been investing since 2012.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Dang. I was very fortunate to pay off my first starter home and that I got before OnlyFans. And then now that's my investment property. I rent it out. And my goal is to have more properties that I can buy up and rent out. I want to pivot that way.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Yeah, you just got one in Vegas, right? Well, in Vegas, yeah. So I live here part time. I got a home here, which I love. I also have a home in California that I live in as well. And then rental property that I rent out. And I'm looking to expand into Texas. OK, Austin.
Starting point is 00:21:00 How did you know? I'm good. Yeah. Yeah. I study the markets. Yeah. I looked in Dallas, but I think it's just not for me just yet.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Austin is sort of like, it's weird, it's conservative, sort of the way to go. That's your vibe? That's my vibe. I love it. Yeah, Austin's fun. I went there for the first time last month. It is fun, it's a good town.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Yeah, I like it up there. Where do you film majority your scenes in? When I do solo work, I honestly film at home. Oh, wow. For that, I don't really need a studio. When I produce a scene, like a big scene, then I will get a location, videographer, talent. I pay everybody.
Starting point is 00:21:35 I put money back in people's pockets. That's cool. Yeah, OF has made it a lot easier to get content out there. Absolutely. Yeah, honestly, just I'm very grateful to that platform. Yeah. Yeah, they changed the game. Absolutely. A lot of the biggest stars left. And they do, they do O.F. Yeah. Well, honestly, it makes sense. We haven't always been treated the greatest on sets, on big, you know, adult production sets. And I think when you create your own content, you're
Starting point is 00:22:04 the boss, you're in charge of everything. Everything just goes great and smooth and easy going. There's no issues. Yeah, when you say you aren't treated greatly, what did that look like? I mean, I don't even wanna get into it. I think if it happened now, some of the things I could tell you,
Starting point is 00:22:21 it wouldn't happen because the industry has gotten more sort of corporate. There's been more lists you go through, and you go, are you OK with this? Are you OK with that? But I've had situations happen where they kept us on set for 22 hours. It's not even legal.
Starting point is 00:22:35 22 hours? Yeah, that would never happen today. I'm talking about this was like 10, 15 years ago. It was just more rough. The industry has definitely gotten more polished and more professional, in my opinion. But I've had, overall I love the industry, it's great. I did have one unfortunate thing happen to me,
Starting point is 00:22:52 which I don't really wanna talk about, but you know what, I got over it, I'm here, and I'm on OnlyFans, and whatever happened to me is unfortunate, but that company and those people can go fuck off. Damn, shots fired. I'll have to look into that one when we're done filming. but that company and those people can go fuck off. Damn. Yeah. Shots fired. Yeah. I'll have to look into that one when we're done filming.
Starting point is 00:23:08 So real estate stocks, you get any good stocks early? I jumped on Apple pretty early. OK. Yeah. Google, Tesla a little bit later. I also buy stocks that I actually consume, like Starbucks. Smart. This week's been rough, though.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Yeah. I lost a little bit of money, but that's OK. It'll correct itself. I'm digging crypto. I got wrecked this week. I'm sorry. Yeah. You got any crypto?
Starting point is 00:23:34 I got rid of it. Smart. I got rid of it. Yeah. You knew the crash was coming? I didn't know. I just got rid of it. Honestly, it's too risky for me.
Starting point is 00:23:43 It's high risk. Yeah, because you're at the point now where you don't need to be chasing insane returns, right? I'd rather keep it moderate. Yeah. Stocks in real estate are slow and steady. Correct, yeah. Five, 10% a year, whatever.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I mean, I lost money on stocks, but it's not to the point where I'm gonna cry about it. I'm gonna like, it's gonna correct itself. So it'll work out. Are you doing comedy now? I love comedy. First of all all I'm a part-time comic did you not know that yeah I'm gonna have to come out to one of your shows um no I'm not doing comedy but not as a career yet maybe down the line but I've been asked to do a few things here and there I actually did a stand-up act years ago but But I don't remember, it was either the comedy store
Starting point is 00:24:27 or, I don't remember, but people laughed. I was shocked. Okay. No, I was shocked, because I wrote the jokes and people laughed. I'm like, you know what, maybe I have a... That's a good sign. It's a good sign.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Your first show? Yeah. A lot of people bombed their first one. I only did three jokes though. So like, you know what I mean, with three jokes you can succeed. Yeah, you might need a bigger sample size. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Because some people go for an hour, I'm like, holy crap. No, I couldn't do that. It's a craft. People think it's easy. It really isn't. You have to like learn joke writing. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:54 A lot of people think they're funny, but. And they're not. Do you know what I mean? Like, yeah. Yeah. Did you run for the mayor of Toronto at one point? In 2014, yes. However, it was a publicity stunt by the
Starting point is 00:25:08 company that I was contracted to. Oh, so it wasn't real. It wasn't real, but it got to the point where I was so into it, I'm like, I think I really can go through with this. I got really passionate about it. However, I had a little bump in the road because I didn't have Canadian ID at the time I was already like American IDs American and so you can't run with an American ID Got it. So if you were able to run do you think you would have did well? Who knows? Who knows could have been the mayor in another life? I could have been the mayor baby. Holy crap I do know that there's an Italian porn star turned Baby, holy crap. I do know that there's an Italian porn star turned
Starting point is 00:25:49 Politician and she ran and she actually won damn. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah I mean it makes sense because you probably have over a billion views so you are known Yeah, not everybody admits it though, but they know I mean my boy over here's got almost a billion So I know you've got close to that or if not more it tells you on the sites right something like that. Yeah Yeah, I mean we're definitely very recognizable and I feel like adult stars are sometimes even more recognizable than some mainstream actors. Everyone watches porn, except for you. I don't, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:18 But I'm rare. That's like so rare as a guy. But you know what I mean? Like my face is seen more online than like some actress, mainstream actress. I'm not talking about Jennifer Aniston or Angelina Jolie, but we're definitely very recognizable. And it's good or bad.
Starting point is 00:26:33 I've had my share of stalkers. I've had weird people. And it happens. And the unfortunate part is we can't afford the same security like Angelina Jolie can afford. So it's like, you know. Mark Zuckerberg's out here spending a million a month on security or whatever something crazy Yeah, I mean I can't do that. Damn Yeah, how often do you get recognized in public? A lot
Starting point is 00:26:55 People some people are polite and they'll like ask for a photo and just say hi some people stare Which makes me feel really weird because I know I'm trying to figure out they either know so they're like oh my god Or yeah, exactly. They're like where have I seen her? She looks familiar I get that too and then some people they just don't care. They'll be like oh cool I feel like in LA people aren't really care people are like you know what I mean like Hollywood LA people see a porn star Mainstream actor whatever they they're more like used to it right you go out. You know East Coast Midwest They definitely make it a bigger deal. All right, so I know you got dogs.
Starting point is 00:27:29 So yes, I have two dogs. But you took it a step further, you have trust. I do, I have a trust for, first of all, I put all my properties in my living trust. That's something that you should do if you own property. A will is not enough, because there's a lot of complications with that. But in my trust, because God forbid something happens to me,
Starting point is 00:27:45 and my dogs are my children, I don't want to have kids, never did, wasn't my thing, never wanted to go that route, but my dogs are like my kids. So if something happens to me, I want to make sure they're well taken care of. Like they're not going to be taken to,
Starting point is 00:27:58 you know, a shelter or whatever. They wouldn't survive. They're too little Pomeranians. So I have a trust for them as well So whoever gets to take care of them, and I picked those people out There's a list of three people that I chose Whoever wants to take care of them is gonna get Finances to take care of the dogs for the rest of their lives dang looking out for your dogs a hundred percent you should do that
Starting point is 00:28:19 People should do that for their kids and their pets if you love them. I'll definitely I just set up a trust this week I'll add my dogs to it. You should. Wow. Honestly, that's smart. Cool. Yeah, you gotta protect yourself. You gotta protect yourself, your finances,
Starting point is 00:28:30 no matter what kind of industry you're in. I always tell girls that in the adult industry, I'm like, save your money, invest, protect yourself. Yeah, so you said you never wanted kids. Never wanted kids, it's not my thing. And it sucks because a lot of people get so uptight about that. People get offended, strangers, complete strangers online,
Starting point is 00:28:49 get offended by the fact that if I ever mention I don't want kids. And I'd rather know that I don't want kids than somebody who, put it this way, there's too many people out there that have kids and they really shouldn't. They're bad parents, they don't take care of the kids, they don't feed them, they don't give them proper healthcare.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Not that, I'm not saying I would be like that because I'm very good with my dogs, but I'd rather just know what I want and leave it at that. Yeah. Fair point, it must be tough in your industry having kids too because all the ridicule the kids will get. A lot of, I mean, I'm also, I feel like the rarity as well, a lot of girls have kids and I can't even begin to imagine and fathom
Starting point is 00:29:26 What their kids would go through or even like the parents the thing is these girls these performers are really good moms I'm friends with some of them and they're excellent parents But yes, this is what they do and I don't really know how they're gonna explain that to their kids and just the thought of that Makes me be thankful for never having kids. Yeah, must be tough because you guys get the most ridicule I've ever seen. 100%. People, it's so, honestly, it's kind of vile. There's a lot of vile people out there, but I feel like if you're unhappy, I would never
Starting point is 00:29:56 go online and just attack someone for no reason. I just don't do that. I feel like secure people, happy people don't do that. A lot of people that attack adult stars, anyone, anyone really in the entertainment industry, because we're putting ourselves out there, and people that come on and attack them, and it happens a lot, like you said,
Starting point is 00:30:13 I feel like those people are just in a dark hole. They're unhappy, they're probably chronic fucking masturbators, like never saw the sun, the moon, the stars, they're just unhappy people. And I'm sure people are gonna see this and they're gonna say some shit and that's fine, but you gotta ask yourself,
Starting point is 00:30:28 why kind of people are leaving horrible comments? Yeah, it's fine. I know it's part of the game, I get time to do it too. Yeah, 100%. I look at my comments and the most viral videos are the most hated ones too. There you go, thank you haters, right? Yeah, they help in a way.
Starting point is 00:30:41 100%. Have they ever gotten to you though, like at first when you were younger? Absolutely, because you know when you a hundred percent have they ever gotten to you though like at first when you're younger I absolutely cuz you know when you're younger Everything kind of gets to you and then the older you get the less fucks you give It's just how it is like I like I've heard it all and like I don't really I have thick skin and you have to Have thick skin if you're in this industry in particular, but it's like whatever Like people that say that people that say anything mean are fucking losers Can't deny that It's like whatever. Like people that say that, people that say anything mean are fucking losers.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Can't deny that. Did joining the industry affect your family relationships at all? I mean, yes and no. I think they're just happy that I've done well for myself regardless what industry it's in. Like imagine yourself being a parent and having a kid, and that kid, doesn't matter what industry he goes into, music, mainstream, whatever.
Starting point is 00:31:31 If they don't do well, if they end up being an alcoholic, a drug addict, no parent's gonna be happy about that. I'm in the adult industry, it's not, I'm sure it's not the number one choice for parents for their kids to be in, but I have something to show for it, right? So, I feel like that, they're okay with that. Yeah, that you're successful.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Yeah. Could have easily turned out the other way. 100%, and that happens, unfortunately. And your longevity's been impressive, because I'm sure a lot of people that enter the space when you did, they're not around anymore. Some are, some aren't, you're correct. I think, I'm not sure what the rate is of the girls,
Starting point is 00:32:04 but I feel like at one point, the average rate of new girls coming in and lasting is like eight months. That's it? Yeah. Whoa. Yeah, and then it takes a lot to really succeed, and you can't just be successful right off the bat. You gotta put your work in, right?
Starting point is 00:32:17 But I've been in it for, I think, 20 years. Crazy. 20 years, yeah. And I've gotten lucky because I didn't, again, I've been under contract a lot. And when you're under contract with a company, you don't really shoot a lot. So you don't shoot yourself out.
Starting point is 00:32:31 Like there's still a demand for you. And that's really what you wanna do. You don't wanna go off the bat and do orgies, triple A and all, double A and all, whatever. You're gonna shoot yourself out. If that's what you wanna do, great, right? But if you want longevity, I don't think that's the way to go. so work your way up to that 100% and and I still haven't done any of that
Starting point is 00:32:49 By the way, you know, okay. Yeah when I tell you I'm spicy vanilla I really am spicy vanilla like I'm spicy I got attitude but yeah, I should one guy more. I've shot some crazy scenes, but nothing like some crazy scenes, but nothing like double, like at the same time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I try to, the movies that I make, I want, they're the type of movies I would enjoy, like with my man, if I were watching,
Starting point is 00:33:15 like just kinda, I guess couple geared porn, you know? Yeah. Do you think when your significant other watches porn, it's a form of cheating? No, absolutely not. No way. I don't think that at all. Okay, because some people do.
Starting point is 00:33:29 I know, and that's really weird to me. That concept is weird. It's like your man is just watching entertainment. Are you offended if you're watching a mainstream movie and there's a sex scene going on? Yeah, they get jealous that they're, I guess, masturbating to another girl. Guys will masturbate over a cartoon, over a magazine. Are you gonna get jealous over that too corn?
Starting point is 00:33:49 Yeah, I mean I had a friend that just told me he used to masturbate to like some video game He thought one of the characters was hot really yeah, I mean hentai is a big thing was a hentai I have no idea, but you know what I mean like would would a girl get jealous over that too like No, I you know what if you're secure with yourself whether you're a guy or a girl get jealous over that too? Like? No. You know what, if you're secure with yourself, whether you're a guy or a girl, you're not gonna get jealous over your partner masturbating to pornography or a magazine or anything else. As long as it's legal, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:34:15 Yeah, fair enough. No, but hentai though, you gotta look into that. Okay, I will look. Is it like Japanese porn? Yeah, you should try to get some voice acting gigs there. Should I? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Like that. Yeah, what would I say? So they just fake the sex noises. Oh, that's it. Like, uh, but is it like over exaggerated?
Starting point is 00:34:32 Yeah, it's like Japanese anime girls. Yeah, so I would have to sound like more like Japanese anime. I'm surprised you haven't been offered that. No. Wow. Yeah, hit me up. I'm gonna look into that. It's gotta be top three on. Oh my gosh, okay Yeah, cuz those Asians be there's a lot of Asians, you know, yeah, I don't know what your fan I think I have a little bit of everything which is great Okay I'm well around it and I can say that confidently because when I do Appearances or feature dancing my fans come in all shapes colors and sizes.
