Greetings #IndustryTalk fam! Long time no see and my apologies! I’ve been spending the last year or so traveling, reflecting, and revamping my life. For my 28th birthday I went to Hong Kong, Macau, Paris and London. Whilst in Europe I did two photo shoots…

INDUSTRY TALK: Q&A (DADDY CREAM aka JOVON JOSEPH)
Father, Husband, Author...Porn Legend
I am not ashamed to say how I discovered this next guest. I’m sure it was during college or before I went off to college. He’s been in the adult entertainment industry for a while now- I’m giving him legendary status. But he’s not just an adult entertainer, he’s a father, author and as of recently a husband! So hands off people Daddy Cream is taken! Let’s chat with him about this business for all of you readers who are curious about being the next big adult star! #Instagram
R|A: Thank you for being apart of the blog. How would you like to be addressed Daddy Cream or Jovon?
D|C: In response to your questions. You can address me as Daddy Cream or Jovon, depending on the subject. Preferably Jovon, but I’m okay with whichever.
R|A: How long have you been a gay adult model/actor, how old were you when you started and what made you decide to get into the industry?
D|C: I started adult film when I was 18, and there were multiple variables going on in my life for me getting in this industry. I wish to keep that a secret for now, as I’m writing a book and can’t spill the beans during an interview (:
R|A: What’s a huge misconception people have about you or other adult entertainers?
D|C: I think like with any industry there’s misconceptions for the wrong reasons. None I ever pay attention to. People are going to think whatever they want to think and believe whatever they want to believe
R|A: Lately I’ve been reading a lot of controversy with racism in the industry with different companies. What experiences might you have had with racism in the business- and what thoughts do you have about it?
D|C: Hmm interesting. I’ve never personally dealt with racism within a company, but that’s not to say it doesn’t exist. I’m sure we all know a few sites that are designated to a particular genre. My thoughts are racism is real and does exist, and I’m sure it happens in the industry more often than not.
R|A: You’re currently writing a book- please tell readers what it’s about and when we can expect to get our hands on it?
D|C: Yes!!! My book is almost complete!! I am thrilled and excited to take my fans and the people who have been following me down this journey to truly understand Jovon as a person. The back story behind who Jovon is. There’s a lot of perceptions out there because I’m socially known and like to socialize but my personal private life is mostly private. I’m excited to tear down the walls and show the world how Jovon became Jovon. I am hoping to have it complete this fall; however, I recently bought a house so that may put a damper on a fall release date. I might be leaning more towards early 2020 with a book signing tour Spring/Summer 2020.
R|A: What advice can you give aspiring adult entertainers?
D|C: As for aspiring adult entertainers, I wish them the absolute best and my advice would be don’t trust everyone, stay private and keep it professional. Not everyone is your friend and 9 times out of 10 someone is wanting something from you to better themselves.
R|A: Many people may not know that you have children, how many children do you have & how has being a father changed you?
D|C: I am the father of one child, her name is Xiena and being a father has been my biggest blessing thus far. Ever since she was born, my life has completely changed and she is my focus. More on this in my book ;)
R|A: You recently posted to Instagram about marrying your best friend- you knew it was meant to be when he called mentioning he prays for you. Did you find it challenging to date as an adult entertainer- and what dating issues did you encounter before tying the knot?
D|C: Dating as an adult entertainer is a challenge. Lol. BUT I believe if someone understands you as a person, knows your heart and understands the difference between business and personal than it could work out. People need to not be so insecure and be a little more appreciative of what an adult entertainer brings to the table and can do for them. We’re not just some whores who don’t value ourselves... I can’t speak for everybody but at least I know I’m not just a whore fucking on camera. I’m a hustler and I do what I have to do to live the lifestyle I want to live. I love being able to travel and provide comfortably, and no person will ever make me change that part of me. I’ve always been a hustler and will forever be a hustler.
R|A: What are your thoughts on Onlyfans vs. the big budget studios? I notice actual adult stars having more content control- but then it’s a platform open to regular exhibitionist. Do you think this is good or bad for the business?
D|C: As far as an onlyfans, I support! I think it’s great that established entertainers can do whatever content their fans want to see and it get deposited directly into their accounts. All that middle person shit is wack and the companies aren’t paying enough for what they expect from you. I personally have an onlyfans and it’s been doing me and my family JUST FINE.
R|A: Where do you see yourself in 10 Years?
D|C: 10 years from now is a long time away. Let’s not think too far ahead
R|A: Lets have some fun now...and no I’m not about to ask you to sit naked in bed with me. But I will be asking some fun questions: What’s your favorite food and can you cook?
D|C: I love to cook! I like to host gatherings and parties and my food/treats are always one of the best parts! I’m a phenomenal cook and intend to get a culinary certificate in the year 2020.
R|A: Who are your top 5 music artist past & or present?
D|C: Top 5 music artist: Nicki Minaj, Drake, Usher, 2Pac & E-40.
R|A: With so many people running for President coming out who are you looking at?
D|C: Team democrat!
R|A: How did you get your adult entertainer name?
D|C: This will be answered in my book (:
R|A: Where are you from?
D|C: I’m from the Bay Area. San Jose California to be exact.
R|A: Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
D|C: My favorite thing to do in my spare time is to travel, cook, be home or anything to get my adrenaline pumping. I also enjoy walks, movies and board games.
R|A: Something weird you do, say or eat?
D|C: I’m a weird person in general. I have character and I love extra hot hot Cheetos with cream cheese!
R|A: How tall are you & what’s your sign?
D|C: I am 5’10 1/2 and my sign is an Aquarius
R|A: What are 3 things on your bucket list?
D|C: Bucket list- Skydiving, go to all Disneyland’s on earth (as of now I have only 2 left! Out of 6 I’ve been to 4) and one day visiting the Egyptian pyramids.
R|A: What is your greatest success in life?
D|C: Can’t say what my greatest success is thus far, but I can say that every year living for me has improved and been a better year than the last. Each year keeps getting better. And this is how it’s supposed to be from what they say...
R|A: Lastly what is your greatest regret?
D|C: My greatest regret. Hmm. That’s deep. I can say maybe what I think it might be but I don’t want to say that based on current emotions. So, I don’t have any regrets. I don’t regret anything in life. I learn and move forward.
INDUSTRY TALK: AMERICAN IN PARIS
We sat outside a cafe on a sunny Parisian day enjoying tea while discussing a few of our future goals. At that moment I had to marvel at where we were. I’d kill for the real estate in that neighborhood. It oozed everything I wanted out of Paris- history, refinement, and views. It was definitely what anyone would call goals.

This shoot means so much to me in so many ways. I love culture- because each culture is so rich, I love sexuality- it's fluid and interesting. This shoot started with a photographer requesting to shoot with an actor who sometimes models. It turned into a political statement on race, culture, and sexuality. So tune into this weeks #IndustryTalk with none other than the actor, model, and writer #RomanAnthony at the #RomanEmpire where #RomanReigns. #PaolinoPhotography #MakeupByKai #SherahStylist #IStandWithOrlando #LGBTEquality #Liberation #Actor #Writer #Model #Androgyny
