Damien Crosse Looks Back on Eight Years of Porn, Cock Worship, and the Best Sex He’s Had Lately

The way that some kids who play with toy fire engines and hammers grow up to be firemen and construction workers, Damien Crosse was destined from an early age to become a world-famous cocksucker.

Sex was his favorite pastime, and it often got him into trouble, until he was recruited by TitanMen and fast became one of the hottest leading men in the industry. After moving to Raging Stallion, where he reigned supreme for many years, in 2008 Damien formed his own studio, Stag Homme, with his now-ex Francesco D’Macho. Today, at 31, Crosse shows no signs of stopping doing what he loves, making porn, getting guys off, taking dicks in his mouth, cuddling with boyfriend Dato Foland on the couch, and traveling around the world in search of more dick. I spoke with him about his love of paganism, when porn’s not fun, and the other favorite  things he likes to put in his mouth.

Adam: Hi Damien, what have you been up to the past few days?

Damien: I’m just in Miami, visiting my mommy. Hanging out with her, going to swimming pools and eating a lot.

What are you eating?

A lot of eggs benedict.

For every meal?

No. Just for breakfast. There’s also a lot of Cuban food, because I don’t have that in Spain.

damien-leatherWhat’s your favorite Cuban dish?

My favorite Cuban dish is Vaca Frita or “Fried Cow.” Shredded beef on a pan, a little bit fried, burnt and toasted on the outside, but inside is normal.

Was that a food you were getting a lot as a kid, or is that more recent?

Oh yeah. I was hooked on it. And croquettes and white rice and black beans and sweet plantains.

I read in a lot of interviews that you were a shy kid, and I was curious if you could talk a little about how that manifested itself?

Well, I wasn’t shy in my childhood, I was actually a lot of trouble. My parents would always compare me to Damien from The Omen. I was always getting into trouble at school. But I turned shy in my adolescent years. I became insecure. I was a little goth boy. I would walk into a club and always be scared to get on the floor. But when I got out of university, I decided I needed to change that. I started bartending which gave me a little more confidence, but I was only confident behind the bar. And then I decided to do something a little more extreme, and that was porn.

What kind of trouble were you getting into as a kid?

I was very different, and I would write a lot. I remember getting into trouble because my writing was a little too sexual, it involved rape and stuff. That was third grade.

Wow. Where were you getting that from?

I was always sexual since the age of four, but I was never raped or molested or anything like that.

But were people around you watching TV shows where you saw rapes? How did you get that concept in third grade?

I just had a good imagination and like I said I was always pretty sexual.

When you say you were sexual from the age of four, what does that look like?

I would always play Blind Man’s Bluff or Truth or Dare, or “If you had a girlfriend what would you do to her?” I would stick penises in my mouth and stuff like that. And I think I was 12 or 13 when I finally did anal. I didn’t like it too much at that age.

Someone fucking you or you fucking them? A friend?

Yeah. Basically if you were my friend we had to have sex.

Damien doing what he does best.
Damien doing what he does best.

So you were a bottom and a cocksucker from a really early age.

Yeah. Like I said, taking it up the booty was not something I was really fond of. But giving head, yes. I lived for it. But actually I was never too fond of booty sex either. It wasn’t until I got into porn that I was like, okay, I guess I have to do this.

When you started doing porn you were a top, right?

Yes. I was really scared to do it. I had a lot of insecurities. I was scared I wouldn’t be clean enough. I couldn’t take the pain. The normal things.

It’s weird how there’s a switch that clicks sometimes and you start to like it. But sucking cock is really your forte. You’re probably the best in the business. Who was the first cock you ever sucked?

It was at four. My best friends at school.

Four years old?

Yeah. I was a big fan of sleepovers. And if I was at the beach and we were there I’d go under the water and give blowjobs. Any chance I had to stick a dick in my mouth I’d go for it.

Were people weirded out by that?

No, no no. They loved it. At the age of 15 there were a lot of little gangster boys in the neighborhood, and every one of them I charged for head. Not that I needed the money, but I thought that if I charged for it, then they wouldn’t think that I was gay.

So it seems like as a kid you were someone with a lot of sexual prowess and power even at an early age — that takes a lot of courage. Where does the insecurity start to play into it? Was it your looks?

I don’t know if it had to do with issues around my sexuality, because even though I was very sexual as a little kid, I never thought of it as being gay. I just thought of it as playing around and having fun. But before I came out of the closet, when I was thinking, ‘Hmmmm, maybe I am a little different,’ I started getting depressed and sensitive. After that point I always felt out of place in so many ways. I was a strange kid. I didn’t find myself very attractive but it was more about my personality.

damien-crosse-stag-roofWhat kind of things were you into?

I was actually into paganism. I also wanted to do acting but I had stage fright. I have a big passion for acting but I would get onstage and the words wouldn’t come out of my mouth.

Did any of that carry over into porn?

Actually the second time I was going to do a show it was in Las Vegas with TitanMen and I walked out to the center spot in the stage and then kept walking till I got back behind the stage. I couldn’t deal with it. But now I do everything on stage. No problem. I get a little bit nervous, but it’s no problem.

What did you like about paganism?

I was pretty Christian as a kid. But I was always questioning things. And after I went through my depression, my psychologist said, “Yes. Your life is shit because you make it that way.” That’s when I started thinking about changing my spiritual view of things. So instead of someone being up there, far away, in control, I was in control. I would make my life. So the whole concept of paganism — that’s what attracted me to it. It was a way to give me confidence. It’s a little twisted.

So you were a little goth and into paganism and rituals—

And Spanish poetry.

Who was your favorite poet?

Jose Marti.

I feel I have a good understanding of why you’re such an amazing cocksucker on film, but I myself sometimes struggle with giving head — I don’t know if the other person is enjoying it, or if I’m even enjoying it sometimes. From beginning a blowjob to the end, what is going through your head?

How tasty it is. I just savor it. I love changing up things and taking it all in and being gentle, pretty much just worshipping it.

Does it give you a good feeling to know that you’re worshipping it?

If I like what I’m doing I always get that feeling.

Tell me what you’re all about now.

I love to travel. It’s my number one passion. That’s it. I live in Madrid. I love it. I moved there because of the party scene, but now I’m trying to slow down on that and get out of the city for the weekends, even if it’s to a small town. Basically what I do now is travel and work.

What do you like about Madrid?

It’s very open. Basically you can do whatever you want to. You can have sex on terraces and people might actually applaud. There was one time when we got a complaint, some kid saw something we were doing, and the cops came and they were like, “No, No, No, we’re sorry for the inconvenience. Is it possible that you could put up a blanket so they don’t see?” I’ve had sex with guys on stage in front of 10,000 straight people, the girls are living for it, recording it on their iPhones. The guys don’t have a problem with it. You can be yourself. Anything goes. As long as you’re not hurting anybody, you can do whatever you want.

What does your typical day in Madrid look like?

Well, it starts off with a sausage-and-egg McMuffin from McDonald’s, then the gym, back to the house, cuddles with Dato on the couch, then go out to lunch. Then maybe a little siesta, and then go to work around five in the afternoon on Stag Homme.

Breakdown the workload at Stag Homme for me. How much is shooting and how much is planning?

Shooting we only do a minimum of two times a month, maximum is four times a month. So then we’re also making trailers, planning the movies, making affiliate packs. It’s not too time consuming at all. We only have two updates a month.

So is your business model essentially take it slow, build it up, focus more on quality rather than quantity?

Yes. Exactly.

What’s been the most successful scene for you guys?

As of recently, I think it’s the most recent scene we just put up, Hunger Bang.

damien-crosse-cumfaceThat’s where you take four guys loads in your mouth.

Yeah. I rarely have fun in a porn scene, but this one I never wanted it to end.

You didn’t show the guy’s faces in that.

Yes, it’s a big turn on for me. I love when I don’t know who the person is, when I can’t see their face. And 30 Loads of Facial, which is based on that anonymous thing is definitely the most successful. The most successful DVD sales we ever had is Cum In My Face, which is also along the same lines. It’s cheap to do and people love it.

Why isn’t doing porn fun for you most of the times?

When it’s something like Hunger Bang where it wasn’t really directed, it was more real and there was more chemistry, and it was more exciting. 30 Loads of Facial, for instance, was more quick and real.

It seems like more and more porn is going that way, taking it’s cue from Xtube. People want the sex to look more real and less fantasy.

Yeah. The porn I love getting off to is either something really simple, a boy in a webcam, or people taking showers in places where they don’t know they’re being videotaped. Not even doing anything sexual, just naked. And straight porn — girls getting bukakked. It’s all reality stuff that I like. Or also if there’s a Joe Gage thing — like Men’s Room, I like that stuff for the story. But mostly it’s real stuff.

Right now I’m super addicted to Vine. Six-second clips of cumshots and cocksucking or just pulling out your dick in public. Let’s talk about piss, which you’re also well-known for. Are you doing it in Stag Homme?

We’re not doing it a lot because it’s such a niche that we don’t want to scare off people. It’s something that I still enjoy, so every once in a while you’ll see it in there. But when we do the DVDs, we have to take the piss scenes out because unless it’s a whole DVD of piss, it’s not gonna work because of restrictions in certain countries like Canada where watersports is illegal in porn.

What’s the relationship like now with you and your ex, Francesco D’Macho?

It’s great. Not only are we business partners, but we’re like best friends. We’re like brothers. He’s the first boyfriend that I had in my life that I kept in my life. It’s something that I realized. When you fall in love with someone, just because the relationship doesn’t work, it doesn’t mean you should throw it away.

damien-dato-2How’s it working with you and Dato Foland right now?

Who knows? It’s kind of up in the air. We love each other loads, but life is complicated. But he’s an amazing, amazing man, and definitely the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

Do you see an end date for you being in front of the camera?

I don’t see myself being in front of the camera longer than two years. That’s the plan. I did eight years in front of the camera and it’s a little draining at times. I much prefer behind the camera.

Okay, last question. What was the best sex you’ve had recently?

The best sex I’ve had recently was with Logan Bond, for a scene that’s coming out end of May or beginning of June for Dominic Ford. We just shot it yesterday in Fort Lauderdale. The boy’s amazing. The booty, the calves. The whole thing. I wasn’t too into American boys when I lived here, but now that I live in a foreign country it’s actually exotic, the whole corn-fed thing. I dig it.

Bonus question — what was the worst?

Haha. I don’t want to talk about that. I will say that I don’t do Grindr, but two or three months ago, I tried to dabble in it and it was awful. I’m not going back on that.

  1. I had a sexual experience around the same age, but I’m not able to process it like Damien. I wasn’t abused and I think it was more out of curiosity for me. Either that or I was just a natural born perv. Damien’s story sounds skeptical though. He’s able to process it so well. I couldn’t tell you what the hell I was thinkin or why I did what I did when I was that young.

    Side note: I got turned off when I saw Dato’s hands upclose. He has the swollen looking fingertips that I see on older mechanics and field laborers. Sorry. I have a thing about hands lol

  2. The guy can’t take a bad pic. He was one of my first piggy porn crushes, loved him with titan and stallion and i kinda liked staghomme better before stallion acquired it. Nice interview Dato is a hottie as well.

  3. Great interview. Glad to see how he has looked the same and so good after all these years especially since he admits to being a big party boy.

  4. from the moment he started to talk about his sexual experiences at age for, I knew here’s a fantasy boy, a mytho….

    1. Maybe I agree in some ways. I find it hard to believe he got paid to suck off the straight guys in the neighborhood. But if it is true….what a freakin unbelievable story!

    1. He is a liar or he had a very fucked up childhood because at four y. o. ( many children quited the diappers only a year before… ) at that age no child are ready to do sex ( or think about it – Only him… ) When I was very young I had erections ( not intentional ones ) but I had to wait till adolescence to have an orgasm.

    2. It is known that there’s a phase (I think usually around 3 or something) where boys and girls become aware of sexual attributes and get very attracted to them (perhaps because they sense it’s a “sensitive” topic for grown-ups?), so that they’re touching their private parts continuously. It’s exploring.
      For the vast majority of boys it’s just a period with no real sexual interaction, but I could imagine that for some others the curiosity gets further than that.

  5. Damn that’s a bit disturbing the age he first became sexual. But then again some people just pick it up faster than others. I remember an interview with Derek Da Silva and Tony Buff, Derek mentioned he was already into BDSM pain-stuff, like he somehow shocked his nipples using his toaster lol.

    Overall, it’s a very good interview, and I think I love Damien even more. I was just so surprised about the whole bottoming thing. He looked like such a natural bottom, I always thought the reason why he parted ways with Titan Media was because they wouldn’t ever let him bottom. He certainly is one hungry pig and I hope he sticks around as long as possible.

    1. I dont know I believe him. It’s like the stuff porn models say to turn on a segment of their viewers. The only times I’ve seen kids 4-6 sexualidad are always being sexual abused. Sex at 4 is sad and wrong – not something to brag about – – more something to be in treatment for
