Boomer Banks Talks Fashion Design, His Big Cock, and Why He’s a Good Escort

It’s late at night on Easter Sunday and I’m on speakerphone with the gentle, giant-cocked Boomer Banks as he drives westward through the streets of L.A. on his way home from dinner with friends. Sure, it’s the holiest day of the year, but Jesus loved the company of sinners and escorts, and so do I. I’ve geared myself up to talk about Boomer’s experiences as a go-go dancer, which led to both his newfound porn stardom as an exclusive for Raging Stallion Studios, and to his recent double win at the Hookie Awards, where he took home Best Cock and Mr. Escort International 2014. But before I can ask about these things, Boomer mentions his mom, who passed away when he was just 14, and the conversation takes a darker, but more honest turn, and ultimately offers an insight into what makes this kind and open performer tick.

Adam: Hi, where are you? How did you spend your Easter Sunday?

Boomer: I’m in Los Angeles, this evening. I went to see my girlfriend Deven Green with my best friend Johnny and we went to have dinner with her.

It was funny, I’m assuming?

Well, she does this thing on Sunday where she taught herself how to play the ukelele, and she does songs and makes up her own, and it’s really fun. It’s every Sunday at Akbar. But it’s not her comedian stuff.

Did you used to do fun things with your family for Easter?

I’m not a big holiday person. I’m an only child of a single mother who passed away when I was 14.

Oh wow. I didn’t know. I’m sorry to hear that. Is it alright if I ask you a couple of follow up questions about that?

Of course.

How did she die?

She was an alcoholic and she died of cirrhosis of the liver.

What happened after she passed?

I went to go live with my mom’s brother, but they weren’t prepared for a little queer Mexican boy and they were very unaccepting of that. So I really just grew up by myself. I lived with them, they housed me, and then when I was 18 I moved out.

Boomer-Banks-gay-porn-star-1Do you still talk to them?

I speak to my uncle and my aunt actually sent me a text today, wishing me a happy Easter. But that’s the extent of it. They’re not anything that I — I’ve never asked them for anything. So, I consider my family are my friends. They’re the ones that I can go to if anything ever happens.

Were there happy moments from your childhood?

Yes, with my mom. She is the reason why I love fashion. She wasn’t a designer but she was this beautiful woman that could put together an outfit and go to the thrift store and reconstruct things. She was a seamstress and she sewed things to make them her own. She wore shoulder pads and pumps and red lipstick and black hair and belts with big butterfly buckles. This woman that I loved, who was the only person in my life for 14 years, she was this fashion icon to me. She was amazing.

If you can, take me back to when you moved out of your house. Where did you go and what did you do to support yourself?

When I left when I was 18?

Yeah. And where were you living?

I was born in Mexico, raised in southern California since I was a year old. When my mother passed away at 14, I moved to Santa Barbara county, I went to high school there. And when I was 18 I moved back here to Los Angeles and I was pretty homeless for the first year, and then I got my very first job at a movie theater in Westwood Village. Then I got a roommate and I was dating someone at the time. But at the same time I kind of started a very self-destructive lifestyle. I kind of inherited my mom’s alcoholic gene, and started my own little self-destructive behavior early on, but that ended when I was 24. I got clean, went to rehab, and I started my recovery. I started the process of recovery and my spiritual path. Actually this year will be my 10-year anniversary of sobriety.

Tell me about the spiritual side of things.

I just don’t identify as religious, my spiritual path has been very simple and that’s the way I like to keep it. I believe in something greater than myself. I meditate, nothing specific like Buddhism or anything like that. It’s just that I believe in something greater than myself. I know that I am not in control, and it allows me to maintain my sanity.

That’s great. I keep trying to meditate and keep being unable to discipline myself to do it.

You know what I learned is that meditation doesn’t always have to be a quiet situation. Meditation for me oftentimes is going to the gym and listening to music. I actually quiet my mind that way. I just focus on what I need to do and that’s pretty much what meditation is. Because you try to not let your mind run into these thoughts that are kind of ruling you at the time.

I know you mainly from dancing at Westgay. When did that all start, and did that start before the escorting?

Yes. So Westgay started two years ago on Valentine’s Day. I was the very first go-go dancer at Westgay, and that gave me a name in New York City as my real name, so I became a go-go dancer, party promoter in New York as a result of Westgay because it became this really hot spot, people would go and the go-go dancers are like one of the main things.

So you did that for a couple of years and that led to the porn?

It wasn’t even a couple of years. After a year of doing Westgay, but here’s the thing, I want to really establish the fact that I am a fashion designer.

Okay.

The reason I moved to New York City was I had gotten a job that had potential for me to design for this designer and I she got bought out and I did not want to continue with the company. So I decided that I would try to potentially move my way up in some other company and I went through three retail jobs that I thought maybe I could move my way up like I usually do. But I was already in my thirties and I wasn’t as hungry as the 20 year olds that I was working with, you know?

Yeah.

So then I started doing the nightclub stuff, promoting, I was doing a party every night. Then I started escorting on the side, and always maintained a level of honesty with myself, with my support group. No secrets. Everything had to be out in the open because for me I’m as sick as my secrets. I had to also fully embody the fact that I would never do anything that I didn’t want to do.

Sure, well, being an escort and being in nightlife are both situations where your sobriety could be risked.

It’s in my face but I establish my boundaries. As long as I maintain my boundaries in this whole situation, I don’t have anything to worry about, and people most of the time respect that. And if they don’t, I don’t have to stick around. Drugs and alcohol are not a problem for me no more. They were my solution and they are no longer my solution. When I talk about being shakey or sick I just mean my behavior and my spiritual self being wounded as a result. That’s what I worry about more today than drugs and alcohol.

Where did the impulse to escort come from? Did someone suggest it or did you just need to make money?

No. I felt that it would give me the opportunity to — I don’t want to go into too much detail about the escorting. It seems like a big thing because I won the big award, but the reality is it’s by no means the way I support myself. It just gave me the opportunity to be able to buy a better sewing machine, get fabric, offer better product to drag queens I was making stuff for. Stuff like that.

On average, are you seeing a ton of people a day or is it pretty light?

Nope. It’s very like, if I’m into it, I’m into it. The reality is I think the reason why I won Mr. Escort International is because I really embody the word escort in all its true meanings.

So it’s not like when I was talking to Rafael Alencar and he was getting calls from famous fashion designers wanting to be impaled?

Yes. I get those texts, but number one, if it comes to fashion designers they will potentially be my peers at some point, so I stay away from that industry. But I feel that slowly Boomer is breaking into mainstream, and if that’s gonna happen I need to tread lightly. And I have been regardless. It’s just who I am. I tread lightly in that department because it’s not something that I want to be known for. Rafael owns the thing, and I own it as well, obviously, but he’s a bit more open because that’s what he wants, because he wants to have billions of clients a day. That’s his thing. That’s not me. I’ve been single for five years except for my little blip over the fall.

We know about that.

We don’t need to know about that anymore.

I’m not particularly interested in it.

Thank you. Neither am I. So regarding the escorting, some people that’s really what they do, that’s their jam. I want to be a designer. Let me rephase that, I am a designer but I want to be a well-known designer, not so much well-known, but well respected. I want to be able to showcase my art in every aspect. In every season.

Do you ever worry about how that will happen? Do you ever look and say, not many have taken this path before…

Do you mean that nobody’s ever done what I’ve done and then became a designer?

Yeah. Do you worry it might not be the right path?

I’m not. I believe in the universe and I believe that I have an immense gut feeling whenever I’m doing what I’m not supposed to. I’m not saying the universe told me to do porn and be an escort, I just feel like this is the path that I’m supposed to take right now. It takes a platform and for many years people have used that platform in a very negative. Let me rephrase that. They haven’t used the platform period and then they go down a negative path. That’s what this industry is known for. Francois Sagat and Jenna Jameson have completely taken it to another level. So they are two of the people that I look up to.

Jenna’s having some problems lately.

Well I mean, everybody’s gonna have problems. But she broke out and made things her. She made her own rules. Francois is now an artist. He has product. The difference between me and him is I actually know how to make that product.

What do you like to make?

I like to make women’s clothes.

How much time during your day do you devote to designing and making clothes?

I think it’s an every other hour process. Every other hour I’m thinking of something that I could potentially make. Right now I’m working on Sister Roma’s dress for the White Party. I’ll be going tomorrow to the fashion district here in L.A. and looking for fabric for her dress and she will be wearing it next Saturday.

Let’s talk a little about your giant cock. When did you realize you had it?

This is one of the questions that I think is so silly. I don’t know. It’s my cock, I don’t know. I never had an “aha moment.” Everything else about me overshadows my giant cock. I think me as a person, once you get to know me, once you talk to me, you know I’m more than that.

I don’t mean to make you feel like less than –

You’re not babe. Listen, I do porn. I created this thing and of course part of it is being objectified, so I’m not like “Why are we talking about that?? Not again!” Ask me whatever you want.

Well I mean, I don’t have a big cock. I’m average, so I’m obsessed with with big cocks. It’s weird to think you never noticed.

Well the reason I’ve never noticed is because I’ve never made that my identity. Just like everything else about me is just a part of who I am and it creates this foundation for who I am. I have a tripod that helps with that foundation. (laughs) It’s fun to have, I like playing with it. People like playing with it. It’s fun, but I really never remember having a “Oh I have a bigger cock” moment.

Boomer-Banks-gay-porn-star-3My friends who have big cocks also don’t like people to know they have big cocks and just want to talk to them because of that. Do you have that situation where people are just googly eyed over your dick?

Yes. But my personality is strong enough and I know my boundaries that I shut it down right away. If that’s all you’re interested in, unless you’re paying we have nothing to talk about.

You said you were single before.

I’ve been single for a long time. I’m not looking.

Why are you not looking?

(laughs) I’m really working hard on becoming a brand and I feel that it would be selfish of me to impose my life on somebody right now. By no means am I opposed to it, but I really don’t feel like I have time to give right now. And I thought that by dating another porn star that that might help but it didn’t.

Because you were too busy or the lifestyle was consuming even with that?

Yes.

Do you think that you’ll do porn for very long?

No. I could tell you that I am 85%, 90% sure that I will be re-signing with Raging Stallion in July, that’s if they’ll have me of course. I like my company and I love that we’ve created something together. If it ain’t broke, why try to fuck with it?

But you don’t think you’ll be like still doing stuff ten years from now or so?

I just know that my fashion is the only thing that I have in mind for my future.

  1. Gay life is based on size of tje penis s and every guy here is mad for that.
    Average men don’t fit in the gay world.
    I never met a guy who loved me.

  2. Gee and some think I am harsh? I am not a Boomer Banks fan at all. But I really appreciated this article to learn more about him. Not sure how some think he is arrogant or even gay for pay LOL
    Give me a break

  3. He sounds like someone who has a first love, fashion, and wants to pursue, but has faced challenges in his life and is taking a different route to get to where he wants to be. I wish him the best of luck. He is a beatiful man, from head to toe. Also, I appreciate that he lets the interview know he’s more than his dick. We all are. Sew on, Boomer Banks, and if I were a woman and could afford your fashions I would buy them just on general principle.

    BUENA SUERTE, PAPICHULOTE!

  4. The interview was another home run! The colorful porn name “Boomer Banks” previously meant “sex object”; now however I think of him as a human being. he also did not come across s smug or arrogant to me.

    I also completely understand why he won “Escort of the Year”, because now I find myself wishing I won the lottery so I could spend time with him just to talk or even share a meal.

    Therefore, while I actually hope he becomes successful enough as a designer to support himself; I also hope he is prepared for the possibility it may not happen. In the last few years everyone has read enough sad and tragic stories about porn stars who were once icons.

  5. His dick isn’t as big as that pic. He is a bottom, that’s why his dick doesn’t stay hard. AND He takes himself WAY too seriously. :)

    1. lots of big-dick gay guys bottom in their personal lives because some of them can’t find a guy who isn’t afraid to take their massive dick.

  6. I completely missed him being smug or arrogant. Instead, I was thinking about how interesting and talented he was as a man.

    If I were in New York, I’d definitely hire him for a day – not to have sex, but to show me the parts of the city that fascinate him and have him explain why those places are important. I’m sure it would be tremendous.

    I’ve googled some of his fashion designs and while I like the flamboyance of some of his drag queen costumes, I prefer his less-is-more dresses.

    All round, a thoroughly good interview Mr Baran, so thanks to you and to Mr Banks.

    1. I completely agree. It is such a shame that some gay men have to be SO vicious and mean spirited toward their own. Clearly they are insecure. I enjoyed reading his thoughts and was fascinated by the influence his mother had on his love of fashion.

  7. People on here have limited understanding and comprehension.

    He had a rough start, his mom died, and he drifted for years in his 20’s… Sounds like he needs a little more compassion than disdain.

    I don’t know him, but he is trying to define himself outside of porn and escorting which is admirable.

    I don’t see why you all have to make comments on his abilities, appearance, or attitude – you don’t know him.

    For you, he is just a series of pixels on screen and feel justified to say vicious things without any context or understanding. And frankly, why do you all care what he does with his life… Why do you take it so personally when he isn’t your family, friend, or lover? It is because you have massive insecurities.

    1. It’s not that he is changing but his main identity is of a gay guy who had the parameters to be gay.
      The average guy only has to take another birth to escape the discrimination.
      If this guy is discriminated here just imagine where average guys fit in. Nowhere.

  8. Dont have respect for liars like Christian Wild. He and his wife Bella bitch has their own website. He’s straight and really needs money from idiot gay slaves to support her pregnancy.

    1. really just shut the fuck up. I am no fan of Christian Wilde straight or not he’s overrated. You are just so damn obnoxious. And Boomer is not straight just because he gets one boner for one woman that could probably be a drag queen of all things. He dates men and men only I know this first-hand.

  9. This guy is arrogant and boastful. I hate it.

    He is also a liar. He’s not gay, he’s bisexual. He turned “exclusively gay” after he contracted AIDS. But he prefers women.

    And how he’s single so long time? This means that dating him with Angel Rock was a lie? Was false? I always suspected this.

    Anyway … he not has talent. And it can have a big dick, but it’s an ugly stick. What good is having big dick, but ugly?? I prefer a beautiful penis than this grimy eel he calls penis.

    1. I agree with you he’s a liar he isn’t gay. He post on twitter he gets hard on with this female pornstar. What a liar bitch. And Im sorry I am attracted to latinos but not with him. He should take a bath first.

    2. You are a piece of work. Even if he had HIV, which YOU wouldn’t know unless you had his test results, why do you think it would be appropriate to try to embarrass him about it on a public forum? You and Jordi Lim need to get a life or maybe a hobby.

      1. Actually he did say he was HIV+. There was an interview of it on a gay porn blog, but for some reason I can no longer locate it, and I believe it was even deleted. I was able to pull it up by a quick google search when I first heard about the story, and in trying to cite what I wanted to say on here, I could not find it again.

        1. I think if you have AIDS you need to be a good person, humble and try to give love to everyone. Than to be arrogant. I pity him bcoz his ugly face mirrors his ugly heart.

          1. He’s actually not really that arrogant in real life though all the pornstars say he’s really a sweetheart. But the parts where he talks about fashion and porn he does come off as arrogant, not his personal background and where he was raised. Just makes me wonder if he was just caught at a bad time or the interviewer was just annoying him.

  10. I can never get pass his face, which I just don’t find attractive. His dick is huge, but never really seems to get that hard. At least from the few clips I’ve seen.

    He seems cool, but he’s delusional if he ever thinks he’s gonna make it in the fashion industry.

    1. but i thought christian wilde has a reputation as a really nice guy — easygoing and considerate?

      if that’s true, it needs to be considered separately from the question of gay or by or G4P. you can be nice and any of those things, or you can be not nice and any of those things.

  11. BOOMER IS A LATIN STALLfaION WITH THE face of Casanova ,the body of Adonis ,and the cock of your dreams…the cute smile,the gentlemen’s haircut,the tats and outfits of a cholito esse scater…he is quite the kind of guy whos smirk commands attention without saying a word..he is going to go places just with his presence and charm… Good luck…please stay humble ,don’t loose any weight or get that imaciated overmuscled look….and please don’t turn into a stuck up cocky cunt!! Luv to u.from.greg

  12. For a whore this one is too much a Diva. First he says: ” I really embody the word escort in all true meanings ” and than says: ” I want to be…well respected “. Keep dreaming. And more: He never noticed he had a shlong and had the nerve to affirm: ” I’ve never made that my identity ” so he is involved with porn because he wants people to know him by his personality. Pathetic like only an arrogant slut can be.

  13. Lol he basically admitted this his “relationship” with Angel Rock was a sham, as is usually the case with most porn relationships.

  14. I have to agree that he came off a bit arrogant in this interview. And I didn’t like the fact that he made that little diss at Francois Sagat. He may not know his way around a sewing machine (I can’t say for certain because he never talked about the sewing part), but he has MUCH more experience in the fashion world than Boomer does, and possibly ever will. Francois worked in the fashion industry in the fashion capital of the world, and he got out of it because he felt he was losing money sticking around there rather than being in it. He’s doing his own thing now and he’s doing very well for himself.

    And he’s not in a serious relationship for lack of trying definitely, but for another reason that I can’t mention because I can’t seem to find the article that would have backed up what I heard. Has GayPornBlog been deleting some of their old articles? I’m looking for an interview article from him that doesn’t seem to show up on there, unless I’m thinking of the wrong porn blog.

  15. his arrogance is a defense mechanism and you also have to believe what you are selling in any industry. i think he is brilliant and a truly kind spirit and an overall really nice guy. except boomer, for gods sake, take the designer clients and get connected!

  16. Ugly hair and random set of tats. Of course, he’s a designer. Hopefully better with women’s wear than with himself. Sounds like he’s had a tough life, but is trying really hard to keep it together even if it comes off as arrogant.

  17. God bless him. That was a very hard upbringing especially to lose your mother at such a young age. Glad to see him following his heart for design.
