So I try and develop that attraction so that it comes across in my performance. Mentally: I try to develop a connection/attraction with my scene partner. As a porn fan, watching performers who are into each other increases my enjoyment of the scene. Physically: I groom and workout before a scene. How do you prepare (mentally, physically, etc.) for a scene? What sexual act that, at first, repelled you, are you, now, totally into? And I can't think of anything I do off-screen that I wouldn't do on-screen. What do you do onscreen that you don't do off, and vice versa?Įverything I've ever done on-screen I've done off-screen. Who's your fantasy scene partner, and what would you do? No. But I have been attracted to all of them. I believe that in order to make sex on camera entertaining and believable, performers need to be attracted to each other. Have you ever fallen for a scene partner? Well, when I was younger, my father kept a small collection of porn magazines and videos hidden in his bedroom closet.  When I discovered it, I would watch some of the videos. While I cannot remember specifically, the first porn I ever watched was probably one of those terrible Playboy channel scenes!
What is the very first porn film you ever saw? Since then, I have been filming and making appearances around the country and I've never been happier and more fulfilled professionally. Within a week I got a job as a stripper and in May I signed with my agents (Ducati Models) and shot my first sex scene. The following month, Falcon signed me to an exclusive contract. So I asked myself what I wanted to do, and the idea of being a stripper and escort popped into my head. After initially setting aside the thought, I asked myself an important question "Why not?" and that was it. I was unfulfilled in my career, resented the security and routine of my life. I have always craved a life filled with experiences and I decided there were not enough new experiences in my life. Then about a year ago, I was taking stock and realized that I was unhappy with the trajectory of my life. I've always been a fan of porn, since first being exposed to it as a teen. I always fantasized about being a model in the movies I watched. I hope they enjoy themselves. The male body and sex should be celebrated and enjoyed!ĭavid Benjamin in a photo from a Cell Block 13 clothing line shoot. How do you want your Nob Hill Theater audience to feel when you dance nude for them?
So when I perform, the experience inevitably turns me on.
Is dancing nude a sensual and/or sexual experience for you?Ībsolutely! I am a true exhibitionist and performer at heart. How do you think you'll feel, as you're performing, seeing yourself have sex on the big screen, 30x40 feet?įirst, I did not know that there was a 30x40 foot screen.wow! Honestly, I suppose I'll be turned on by the experience. How do you think you'll feel when you see your name on the marquee on one of the world's most venerable gay porn venues?Ī mix of emotions: excitement, accomplishment, nerves. Marquee billing is a special experience and a very visible indicator that I am doing something right, but I very much want both staff and patrons to enjoy themselves and walk away satisfied. It's an honor to be invited to perform here! Yes it is, and I am very excited! Nob Hill is a legendary space that over the years has hosted some of the greatest gay adult entertainers of all time. Is this your first time performing at the Nob Hill Theater? As a newcomer to porn, I'm very excited to be able to talk with you today!īut to your question, I chose the name for two reasons. First, I thought that a name with a Jewish flavor would appropriately address the Hebrew tattoo on my chest. Second, I wanted a stage name that I hoped would evoke the qualities I bring to my performances: intelligence, maturity, and confidence. I'm a huge fan of the Bay Area Reporter and have read it online for some time. The sky's the limit for this stud, and it's no surprise that The Nob Hill Theater would want to start the year on a high note, featuring him on its legendary stage, bringing a freshness and fearlessness that should set the stage for the rest of the new year.Ĭornelius Washington: How did you create your porn name?ĭavid Benjamin: First, thanks for taking the time to talk with me and offering me the opportunity to introduce myself to your readers. Falcon/Raging Stallion Studios was very quick and very smart to sign this new, versatile star. The perfect size, height, age, and coloring for serious sexuality on film, David is just what the erotic industry needs. The minute I saw his framed image in the lobby of The Nob Hill Theater, I could see that David Benjamin was not just your average porn star.
