Jason Luv was made for Instagram. Muscle-bound, handsome and covered with skin art, this is a guy who knows how to strike a pose. And once he started doing solo videos, it was a certainty that this 6-foot-5-inch, 235-pound package of raw power would end up in porn.
Luv did his first boy/girl scene for a site that ended up going nowhere, but the footage itself definitely got traction, with more than 2.4 million views on Pornhub (just search for “Da Boss Audition”).
But it was his Instagram account that brought Luv into the upper echelon of the adult industry.
Before his entry into the adult world, he was a fashion and fitness model, shooting for the Look Book, Apeel and Krave.
“I was modeling, and Blacked.com saw photos of Instagram. One of the photographers contacted me, and I emailed them back,” the Louisiana resident explained.
Once he shot for Greg Lansky’s newest site, BlackedRaw.com, that was it. Luv is now working exclusively for Lansky, a three-time winner for AVN Director of the Year.
Active for just a year now, he attended his first AVN Adult Entertainment Expo this past January. “I had a blast,” Luv said. And why wouldn’t he, given that he could spend time with the star-studded lineup at Lansky’s plush booth.
As an exclusive model, he’s shot only with Lansky. “I’ve done like 90 movies this year,” Luv says proudly. He admits he worries a little about getting overexposed to fans: “You eat chicken every day, eventually you’ll want beef.”
Working with Lansky has afforded him the chance to perform with some of the industry’s biggest names. Luv cites in particular how much he enjoys “personality wise” working with Brett Rossi and Nicole Aniston. Of the latter, he says, “On a professional basis she would be my coworker best friend.”
As far as standout scenes, Luv says, his “ultimate favorite scene” would either be with Nicole Aniston or Mia Malkova—or perhaps Lana Rhoades, with whom he’s worked multiple times.
Topping the list of performers with whom he wants to work would be Abella Danger. “I love her performance. I think we’d do good work together,” Luv says. “She’s the one on the top of my head initially. She creates chemistry with everyone. It reminds me of myself.”
He adds that Elena Koshka would have also been up near the top, “But I’m actually scheduled to shoot with her this week.”
One thing he hasn’t done yet is a girl/girl/boy scene, so that’s on Luv’s wish list. But he has already done a big group scene.
“I did my first gangbang [for BlackedRaw.com] a month ago—it hasn’t released yet. I believe we’re about to do one for Blacked.com. So that should be pretty good.”
He adds, “I was reading fan comments. They’ve been begging for the group sessions on Blacked.com.”
When he’s not making his fans’ dreams come true during his frequent trips to Los Angeles, Luv stays active back home in Louisiana. “I work out. I’m a trainer when I’m home. And cook. And basketball.”
Aside from the obvious perks of working in adult (“I like the actual act itself”), Luv also feels that adult entertainment helps people fulfill their fantasies: “You’d be surprised how many people you help in the world with that. … We’re all here to have fun.”
Friendly, open and gentlemanly, Luv says, “I’m an optimist. I’m always going to see the positive side of thing.”
That positivity is also evidenced in the pinned tweet on his Twitter page: “All my fans are my friends,” he writes. “Don’t matter who you are: whether your straight, gay, bi, ugly, pretty, fine, lesbian, transgender, white, black, or other none of these descriptions matter all our hearts are constructed the same.”
Reading comments by his fans and coworkers reveals that this is just the kind of heartfelt open-mindedness that the adult industry—and the world—needs. As one fan posted, “Omg best tweet ever!!! ❤”
