Lana Smalls Talks with Captain Jack
Lana is a petite beauty who has been in the industry for a few years now. We had a chance to talk late last year and she is an absolute joy to talk to! We had a wide ranging talk and it could have gone on for hours. I had a chance to meet her in person at the recent Adult Entertainment Expo and she’s the same in real life. This interview originally appeared on PornCrush.com Enjoy! .
Captain Jack: Tell me about Lana Smalls.
Lana Smalls: I wax always a whore ever since I can remember. I’ve always just been kind of a slut. I grew up in the Bay and went to college in Oregon for about a year and a half. Then Covid hit so I decided to just drop out. I was struggling in college because I have a sleep disorder called Hypersomnia which means I sleep too much but I’m still always tired. They don’t know the cause of it or anything about it really; it just means I have chronic fatigue but I also sleep a lot. I can sleep for 22 or 26 hours undisturbed. College was when my symptoms started to get really bad. I used to be a really good student but then my sleep just started getting so crazy. During Covid was when I decided to just drop off. I started an OnlyFans during that time and I met a couple of people in mainstream and I was like, ’OK, maybe I will do this!’ That’s kind of how I ended up here.
CJ: Since they don’t really know what causes your sleep disorder, I assume there’s no cure for that?
Lana: No. It’s so crazy. The only FDA approved drug to treat it is GHB, the roofie drug basically. I’m actually about to start it because my sleep disorder has limited me so much. I feel like I’m half a person. I get half as much done in a day as I’d like to just because I’m so chronically tired. I miss out on birthdays and events and big moments. I just miss out on so much so I decided to start taking the drug. Basically at night, I have to roofie myself with GHB at 10pm and it knocks me out and I’m supposed to be really well rested the next day. I’m hoping that it works because I feel I’ve missed out on so much of my 20s just sleeping through it.
CJ: How old are you?
Lana: I’m 24.
CJ: You said you were a whore as long as you can remember. Does that include both men and women?
Lana: Yes, it is. I knew I was gay starting in middle school but I pushed it down because I’m such a weird person, such a character, that I was like, ‘I can’t have another thing that makes me even more weird! Another ostracizing thing!’ I’m already a little psycho, a little freak. I have no tits, I was an ugly kid, I can’t have any more problems! So, I didn’t really come out until I was 17 or 18. And from there on, I really started to explore that side of me. I had a long-term female partner but I actually haven’t dated a woman since her. The break-up traumatized me so bad. The funny thing is, I have romantic feelings for women a lot more than I do for men. I have sexual feelings for men and I have romantic feelings but they’re never as serious as the ones I get for women which makes dating women so much scarier. At least men, I don’t even respect enough that it feels safer, I guess. It won’t fuck me up when I break up with them. (laughs) So, I’ve avoided dating women for 4 years now.
CJ: Do you have a count of how many people you were with before you started your OnlyFans?
Lana: Oh my God, I think it was somewhere in between 40 and 50. It wasn’t terrible but I made the rounds. (laughs)
CJ: What did you start the OnlyFans? Was it to make ends meet?
Lana: Yes. I had sugar daddies before Covid but when Covid hit, I couldn’t see them anymore. I thought I was pretty good at sex work stuff so why don’t I just try an OnlyFans. My first month, I made a nice amount of money and I thought, ‘Oh, ok, this works!’ I lived in a house with a bunch of other college students, they were already friends, and I was this college drop-out doing porn in the house. (laughs) They were all really supportive of it. I think it was something new for them as much as it was for me. Some of them would take pictures for me, one roommate was very curious about it so we did photo sets together. They were very, very accepting of me. I lived in Portland for maybe 2 years doing OnlyFans when I met Scarlett Skies. She’s my current roommate and my best friend. When I lived in Portland, she took a trip out and I texted her, ‘Do you want to hang out while you’re here?’ So, we hung out a little bit and hit it off super well. She was telling me about the industry and I was so curious and she was the one who inspired me to join. Maybe six months after meeting her was when I started mainstream.
CJ: How did you come up with your stage name?
Lana: I had an ex-boyfriend and we had a running joke that if I was a rapper, I would be a mix between Biggie Smalls and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I don’t know how that character came up but I thought I should be Buffy Smalls if I ever did porn. Or Stuffy Smalls. Something stupid and cute. But when I was signing with my first agent, he said that was a bit too much that we should do something different. So, I kept the Smalls and chose Lana. It’ s something close to my real name so I wouldn’t get a split personality disorder by answering to Lana. (laughs) I really used to think that I was short and tiny. Then I got into porn and everybody was four foot tall! I didn’t know how tiny people could be.
CJ: How tall are you?
Lana: I’m 5’5”. I’m considered tall in the porn industry!
CJ: So, what was your first scene like? You were sexually experienced but it’s different with all these people around. Were you intimidated? Nervous? Turned on?
Lana: Surprisingly, I’ve had anxiety issues in the past but I’ve never panicked on set. My first scene, I felt like a superslut. It was more exciting than anything. I wasn’t nervous at all and I wasn’t even turned on by the cameras being there. I think I was turned on by the fact that I was doing something that was so against the rules. I think my first mainstream scene was either Hookup Hotshot or Gangbang Creampies. I jumped right into the crazy shit. I think those were my first scenes, I can’t remember if there was another one in there. I think Bryan Gozzling was my first boy/girl.
CJ: Do you like the rough stuff?
Lana: Oh yeah, I love it. It’s honestly what I prefer. I can get into every scenario; I feel that I have a pretty good range with the scenes that I can do. But the gonzo, messy, spitty, squirty, rough stuff is where I really get to enjoy myself. I feel that the scripted stuff and the stepsis stuff, it’s fine but I also have to limit myself to some extent for those scenes because I can’t get as crazy as I want to be because they young that young, innocent girl next door. Literally, yesterday, I did a Throated scene with my friend Victor Rey because I had so much fun because I just got to be a big fat slut on-camera and just really go insane and talk my shit and just be a mess. I was covered in spit by the end of that scene. Those are my favorite to film but I do really, really enjoy features, like heavily scripted stuff too.
CJ: Have you ever given or received a golden shower?
Lana: Oh yeah! Oh totally! That was one of the things we did in the first scene I did with Bryan. I think at the end of that scene, I was wearing cowboy boots because my online name used to be Cowgirl Cummies for a long time. So, I wore the boots to that scene and at the end of the scene, he pisses in the boots and then boots it on top of my head and the piss just seeps down my face. It was so funny. I also drank his pee earlier in that scene. It was a good time!
CJ: I saw an interview with you and you love shock value. What’s the most shocking or outrageous thing you’ve ever done on film? Is it still the Johnny Sins scene where he oiled up his head and tried to put it in your vagina?
Lana: It’s probably the cum snorting that still remains. I don’t really know how to top that! I think about that all the time! And then what can we legally do? I think the cum snorting remains my little thing. The other thing I did was a long time ago when I still lived in Portland. The first video I put on PornHub was a video of me queefing into a harmonica and producing a couple of good notes. That was another shocking good one. I still DM’s about that on Instagram. If anybody has any ideas of what I can do that is legal and safe, I’m down!
CJ: Someone told me that they would love to do an airtight or a double anal with 3 or 4 little people.
Lana: Oh my God! That would probably be so complicated! Dude, that’s so funny! The only thing is that I don’t do anal and I don’t expect to ever do it. Which is funny because I know I give the vibe of crazy, hardcore stuff but anal is my one thing where I’m not doing all that. I don’t want to have to wake up early and clean out. I don’t want to not eat the night before. I don’t want to have to prep for a scene like that. That just sounds like so much more work than I’m willing to do. I love food. I will not give up food ever.
CJ: I respect your decision but I heard somewhere or read somewhere that you did DP’s before you even got into the industry?
Lana: I did! Yes! I actually just remembered that sometime last year! I was always just curious about trying everything in high school and college. One time, I was seeing this guy in high school and we had done anal before. I didn’t do DP with two people—I would do it where he was fucking me in one hole and I would fuck the other with a dildo. I could never find someone who wanted to do a full DP thing. Guys are just so weird. Normal guys are so weird. So, yes, I did do that and it took me all these years to realize I did do that! I was always so impressed seeing girls get DP’d. I would think, ‘How do they do that?’ I did it! And I didn’t even remember!
CJ: What’s the most outrageous or wild thing you’ve done in your personal life?
Lana: Oooh. I think when I was 18, I went on a trip to Mexico. I was on the beach and this Mexican guy speaks to me in Spanish a little bit and he calls me pretty. I don’t speak Spanish that well so I was just, “Oh my God! Fuck yeah!” And I had him follow me around the resort looking for a place to fuck and then I found this little rocky area. It was when I was 18 so I was a dumb slut too and not responsible at all. I had to Google translate, ‘Do you have a condom?’ He didn’t and I still fucked him. I think it was my first uncut cock too! We had so much fun just fucking and telling each other ‘Te Amo! Te Amo!’ Then I hooked up with him again a week later in Mexico City. I fucked him again in my hotel room and made my first porno with him.
That kind of started my fetish of saying ‘I love you’ to strangers when I’m hooking up. I think it’s so funny to just be hooking up with someone for the first time and just dropping that on them and seeing what they do with it. Every single time, they say it back. It’s so hot to me because we clearly don’t know each other, we don’t love each other, but that lie, to fake emotional intimacy is so fun for me. I feel that’s such a weird thing to do with someone. You can get pissed on, you can squirt, you can get fisted but saying ‘I love you’ to a stranger is so intense so I love doing that with my hookups.
CJ: We mentioned about romantic feelings with guys before, do you ever say that to a guy and he gets all weird?
Lana: Honestly, I think they’re pretty aware that I’m just not capable of loving them. So, I have yet to scare anyone that much. It’s more like a cat playing with his prey. I feel like I’m taunting them in a way. I’m teasing them by saying ‘I love you’ when we both know that I will never love them. It feels a little bit evil. (laughs)
CJ: A lot of the guys in porn are older. Does it ever bother you to work with older men?
Lana: Oh, not at all. Before I started mainstream and a little bit when I first started, I was actually dating a man in his 40s when I was 19, 20. He had kids, I was a stepmom, I had my little housewife moment. The age difference doesn’t bother me. Now, I’m a little bit wary of men that are a lot older than me that try to date me. I’m like, ‘what are you getting out of this?’ Do you have an age regression thing? Is it an ego thing? Do women your age know how immature you are and they just don’t want to date you? Is that why you go for younger women? I’ll fuck around with an older man; in fact, I have a couple boy toys; but I will not date them because I know there’s something wrong with them if women their own age won’t date them.
CJ: In your days before porn, were you ever in an inappropriate relationship?
Lana: Ooooh yes! I was known for fucking my friends brothers. No one was safe! (laughs)
CJ: Did that cause a lot of problem with your friends?
Lana: Oh yeah. I was honestly just super gay for my friends but they were straight so their brothers were the next best thing!
CJ: What do you like sexually? What gets Lana wet?
Lana: I don’t know, I think it switches around at times. Sometimes I go through phases when I’m hooking up with someone off-camera, I really like the messy, crazy, hardcore stuff. At other times, it’s fun to have the safe, passionate, intimate. I think that emotional intimacy is something that you don’t get in porn unless you’re fucking your own partner or something. So, that’s something I crave at times. It really just depends on the partner and what I have with them. I have a boy toy where it’s a very soft, fun hookup and then I have another boy toy where I’m going to leave with my throat bleeding from getting throat fucked so hard.
CJ: You said before that you’re submissive but can you play the dominant role?
Lana: Oh, totally. I learned through porn that I’m definitely a switch. I’m more submissive leaning. I think I do that a little bit more frequently but there’s certain cases where that partner has a submissive vibe to them that I just get to play around with them. Again, it’s like that cat and mouse game. I’m teasing them, I’m slapping them, I’m spanking them, I’m telling them what to do. And that’s been fun for me to get into. I really enjoy that side.
CJ: How often do you masturbate?
Lana: Everyday. Oh my God. Everyday! I really can’t go a day without cumming. I’d go insane.
CJ: Favorite method?
Lana: Hitachi, for sure. And fingering with the Hitachi, that’s the secret cum. That’s my cum bell.
CJ: When you finger yourself, do you taste yourself?
Lana: Oh, always. Even as like a health reason, every morning, I do a little taste test to make sure my coochie’s ok because I never want to be the girl that shows up on set with a smelly cooch. I never want to be that person. I really don’t. (laughs)
CJ: I love your oral skills. I especially love the way you sniff the cock and balls in your mouth at the same time. .
Lana: Oh my God! Thank you! I think I have a total thing for pheromones. It just feels animalistic. There’s just this primal thing in me that needs to know what people smell like. I love arm pits, I love smelling pussy, I love smelling balls and the dick, I love a guy that’s uncut and then rolling down his foreskin. I don’t know what that is but it’s so easy to be turned on that way once I can smell them.
CJ: You also squirt, when was the first time you squirted?
Lana: My first boyfriend when I was in high school. I literally thought that I peed on him and I was so embarrassed. I never watched porn, honestly. I was traumatized because I never really watched porn and when I was in high school, there was this one guy who would retweet porn. One time, he retweeted this video of an anal scene and there was diarrhea on the dick and I was like, ‘I never want to watch this again!’ I never sought out porn, I never went on PornHub or anything like that. I had no idea who anyone was joining this industry. So, I didn’t know what squirting was so the first time I fucked my first boyfriend, I squirted on him. I was so embarrassed, I felt so bad and he said, ’That was soo fucking hot! I’ve never been with a girl who could squirt!’ And I was thinking to myself, ‘What is that?’ (laughs)
CJ: When a guy pops, where do you prefer it?
Lana: I love a creampie. I like a facial if it’s in the eyes which is insane. I just like the pain of it, I think. That’ s for a really hardcore scene, if they force me to keep my eyes open and they cum in my eyes. I think that’s super sexy. Anywhere is fine but when I’m having casual sex with a partner, it’s always a creampie.
CJ: Are you a swallower?
Lana: Yes, I am. But if I get the vibe that your cum is going to taste like battery acid, I’ve lost all of that shit. One of my first scenes was a blowbang and those guys had the worst tasting cum of my life. It actually hurt my stomach so bad that I had to make myself throw it up. I’m not risking it.
CJ: Are you a size queen?
Lana: Oh yeah. I don’t think I’ve ever dated anyone with a dick under 7 inches. I refuse. Smaller dicks can definitely make me cum and it feels good and I enjoy it but, long-term, I want a giant dick. I really do.
CJ: Do you have any fantasies you would like to live out on-camera?
Lana; Yes. I want a trucker gangbang. I really do. I want it to be that I’m a hot girl hitchhiking and there’s this line of truckers that just tie me up in the back of some truck and they just have at it with me.
CJ: How many guys?
Lana: I don’t know. I wonder how many I could take. I guess the most guys I’ve fucked at once is five so I think I could do 10.
CJ: Was the five off-camera or on?
Lana: On-camera. It was for the Gangbang Creampie scene.
CJ: What do you look for in a guy off camera?
Lana: It’s changing because I used to totally just date bums. I would take the bummiest bums as long as they had a big dick, I didn’t care. But now, when I’m interested in a man, I want to know that they have their shit together at least as much as I do. I want them to have good financial planning, investments, Roth IRA’s, I want them to have a nice place that they leave in, clean, kept together. I don’t want to pay someone else’s rent ever again. I can’t do that. I’ve never been in a relationship where I didn’t pay my partners rent. I really don’t want that again. I honestly just want them to be on the same level as me as far as emotional maturity and finances. I feel that so many men will date sex workers just for a financial game. I just feel that so many of us have been financially abused by partners. They say that, ‘no one else will love us or no one else will accept what you do, I accept you’ but it’s just because they want their fucking Play Station paid for. I want someone that’s just as slutty as I am.
CJ: What about girls?
Lana: I love women that are a little bit more dominant than me. I lean towards older women a little bit more but I can definitely date a woman my own age. Honestly, the same thing, emotional maturity, being on the same level financially, being as much of a slut as I am. That’s just the top 3 things. (laughs)
CJ: What do you do when you get free time?
Lana: Mostly I sleep. Like today, I didn’t work, I slept until 5pm. I just like to be home and spend time with my cats, watch movies. I used to read a lot but I haven’t done that lately. I need to find a good book that gets me back into it. I love being cozy, spending time with Scarlett. I like going out sometimes. I go through phases with that. But I think the #1 thing I do is work. I think with my sleep disorder, that’s something that makes me feel productive.
CJ: And how can the fans follow you on social media?
Lana: On X, I’m @LanaSmallsxxx. Instagram is @LanaSmalls. OnlyFans is LanaSmallsx. And I have a linktree at cowgirlcummies.
