Twenty Questions with Hot Porn Newbie Lena Paul

Lena Inspires Lust

Hot new starlet Lena Paul stars in Hard X's "Stacked 6", directed by Mason that comes out on DVD tomorrow. With her true acceptance of her own sexual appetites and her luscious and natural curves, expect to see a lot of her in the porn world in the coming months. 

What kind of girl were you back in high school? Who did you hang out with/date?
"I didn't date very much at all, I was extremely conservative and shy. I actually waited until I was nineteen to have sex for the first time, but afterward, I realized how much I loved it and then I tried everything. Threesomes, DP, anal, lesbian sex - I wanted to make up for all the time I missed on trying to 'save myself' for someone when in reality it's much more fun to share! I was very much the nerdy girl. I hung out with other basement dwelling oddballs like me and played video games, watched sci-fi shows, and obsessed over fandoms, all very innocent. I was a late bloomer in every sense LOL."

Were you a porn fan before you got into the industry? Who were your favorite porn stars/favorite porn movies?
"The first dirty movie I ever saw was some shitty gonzo lesbian scene, but I was always fascinated by women and masturbated to them almost exclusively (something I have in common with the large majority of my fanbase ha!). I was obsessed with Dani Daniels and Dillion Harper - you can imagine how starstruck I was when I met Dillion onset for DP Stars earlier this year! She's so sweet and beautiful."

What kind of scene have you found is your favorite kind to do so far?
"At 23, I'm a little older than the average starting porn star, and so I've experimented far more in my personal life as a result with mature adults - I was pretty spoiled on good sex when I started in the business. So wild scenarios and extremity don't 'thrill me' like they might a greener girl. What I really love is when I'm given the creative freedom to fuck how I please (examples: 'Tits & Oil 2', 'My Sister's Big Tits', 'Brazzers Christmas Special', Hard X's "Stacked 6" with Ramon Nomar, anything with Girlfriends Films, etc.). Good chemistry is a hundred times better than a wild scenario to me."

What/who do you want to do on-camera that you haven’t done yet?
"Damon Dice and Tyler Knightt are two big ones for me that come to mind for men! I think they're both very attractive and would love to work with them. For women, I'd love to work with Asa Akira (I'm a sucker for a funny woman!) and Brandi Love. For new things, one thing I tried in my personal life but never really perfected was double penetration and I can't wait to try this in my professional life with folks who have a bit more practice than my well-meaning but rather inexperienced volunteers from the past."

Who is your favorite male/female performer to work with so far and why?
"For men, one of my favorite performers I've worked with so far was this newcomer Lucas Frost. I'm very professional onset and try to save my sexual energy for my scene itself, but we couldn't keep our hands off each other! It was crazy strong sexual chemistry. I've also worked with Van Wylde and adored him. For women, Eliza Jane and August Ames are a tie. In both scenarios, we couldn't stop smiling and kissing, we were so happy to get to have sex with each other!"

You respond to your fans a lot on Twitter. What do you like most about talking to your fans on social media?
"Video games, politics, literature - if my fans have opinions and are funny/interesting, I love to chat! I started off as a camgirl so I've always viewed my fans as clients in the same fashion I would a cam consumer. I still try to embody that friendly/approachable camgirl vibe."

How did you become a porn performer? What led you down that career path?
"Looking back, it was such a strange series of deviations from my original career path that got me here. I was working in environmental preservation with a startup in Latin America and camming from my hotel room at night or doing dirty snaps to help fund my business travels (startups have zero capital so we were all bootstrapping), and I was discovered by an agent. When my business failed as most startups do, I decided to jump in and not look back. I gave it a try and initially didn't like it, but connected with a better agency and better companies and fell in love. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again!"

What do you most want to achieve in the industry?
"I'm in the process of doing it, as I'm currently working with marketing, legal, and production teams to start my own independent studio with my life partner. I highly doubt we'll ever be on the level of folks like Brazzers or Reality Kings but I'm so passionate about creating porn that aligns with my sexual and creative vision. This studio is my baby in a way other startups have never been, and I'm so excited to show you some of the beautiful scenes we'll be curating with some very big name porn stars. I want real, passionate, happy sex and I think plenty of folks feel the same way and are going to be just as joyful about viewing our product as we are about making it.

What is one thing you would teach a woman who wanted to be a better sexual partner?
"Acceptance, understanding, and good communication are the keys to great sex. Your partner very likely has fetishes or things he/she is curious about but may feel uncomfortable telling you. Connecting and trying new things together is incredibly bonding and makes for super satisfying sex. I can't fully take my partner's fist (his personal fetish), but my willingness to try and support his fetishes was something women in the past had failed to do that made him very satisfied in our sex life."

What do you love most about being in porn?
"You know that feeling that you have when you first have sex with someone? The giggles, the racing heartbeat, the trembling hands while you undress each other? Do you remember how exciting it can be? I get that nearly every day I come onto set. I get to have sex for the first time, every time, and that's pretty magical. Beyond that, I'm very blessed right now to have no shortage of work and it's enabled my family and I to pursue creating my studio, something I've been passionate about since I was in college."

What do you think are “must-have” DVDs for your fans?
"Honestly, I kinda just listed them above! I haven't seen the scene yet, but I think 'My Sister's Big Tits' DVD that I did with Lucas Frost is going to be a really amazing scene as well as the three DVDs I've done for Girlfriends Films - 'Cheer Squad Sleepovers 20', 'Netskirts 16', and the upcoming one I can't talk about yet!"

What do you like to do for fun?
"I love to play video games, read good fiction (I am currently reading Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian"), cook, and really, honestly my job is pretty darn fun too! I don't have a ton of time for activities outside of my career currently, so I try to work with people who make me happy to be there. What's that saying about 'if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life?' I think that embodies my life right now."

What are your favorite fetishes to explore on camera?
"Women! LOL I can hardly classify 50 percent of the world's population as a fetish, but it's so hard to meet like-minded women as a bisexual who works as much as I do. I really feel like I get a release from being able to have sex with gorgeous, intelligent, charming women regularly. Beyond that, squirting is fun! I try to hold off on doing that in my personal life, as the cleanup can be a little prohibitive for everyday life!"

Who are your role models in porn?
"Asa Akira, who I mentioned above, Alexis Fawx, Jiz Lee, Joanna Angel, Erika Lust - I love their work ethic, their thoughtfulness, their creativity, and loyalty to their own vision of what sex/porn looks like for them. Erika and Joanna are especially in the forefront of my mind as I begin work on my new studio."

What is the best mainstream movie you have seen recently?
"I haven't watched anything new lately, but I have been watching a lot of Akira Kurosawa's samurai flicks (don't ask me why!) and I just finished Seven Samurai - oh my god, it was so amazing, if you're into old movies."

How about the best porno movie? Is there someone whose movies you like to watch who is working now?
"'Cindy Queen of Hell' was breathtaking. It was so well composed; I was blown away. I didn't know that porn could be that engaging. If you like alt girls and amazing storylines, you have to see it. For the second part, like I said, Dani Daniels was a go-to favorite of mine all through college, and would love to work with her someday."

What is coming up for you?
"Right now, my primary focus is my website and getting amazing content and performers collaborating on some beautiful projects with me. August Ames, Riley Nixon, a host of newcomers, and amateurs will be joining me this month for our first few production days. I'm in contract currently for anal and interracial but I'm already storyboarding big things for interracial, specifically for my website that I can't wait to show you and all of the performers I've reached out to for those projects are counting the days until we can work on it! We're so excited."

If you could fuck any celebrity, who would it be?
"Idris Elba, hands down. Intelligent, masculine, a little brooding - it's like someone made him in a computer to hit all my fetishes."

What single piece of advice would you give a brand new female performer?
"Be best friends with your gynecologist, your accountant, and your financial planner, in that order! Ha ha, but in all seriousness, to thine own self be true. Stick to your guns and remember that 'no' is a complete sentence that requires zero justification."

Is there anything you want to say to your fans here at Fleshbot?
"Your ongoing support has changed my life, radically, and for the better. Thank you for supporting me, defending me, and being patrons of my work. I am forever indebted to you."
