Fresh from his recent jaunt at Berlin's HustlaBall, Mr. Tex Davidson brings his unique brand of sexy to The Nob Hill Theater, in performances with stage partner Dylan Strokes. With a sensual, slow southern drawl that reminds one of cool drinks and warm nights on the range, this multiple Grabby and Cybersocket Award nominee (and Top 10 AEBN Male Performer) is sure to satisfy any number of desires, as he has with his work with Channel 1/Rascal, Titan Men and Raging Stallion, among others.
If you're ready for the kind of sexual workout that this muscular personal trainer can dole out live on stage, bring a water bottle, a clean towel and a filthy mind to The Nob Hill Theater this weekend. The Bay Area Reporter has an exclusive interview with the man himself, just for you.
Cornelius Washington: This is your first appearance at The Nob Hill Theater. How do you think you'll feel when you see your name on its legendary marquee?
Tex Davidson: Like the star that I am.
Your live performances are legendary! What will you and your stage partner, Dylan Strokes, bring to the stage, that no one else can?
A lot a sexual friction.
You just performed at HustlaBall in Berlin. Please describe the event, and what you love most about live performances.
Hustlaball Berlin is an amazing sexually-driven party, featuring guys from all around the world. To do a live show in front of so many was hot and just brings out the freak in me.
What do you love most about live performances?
I love the fact that you have an audience watching; it puts me in a state of mind that I just want to make the crowd love what I do.
How do you think you'll feel when you see yourself having sex on the theater's 30-foot-high screens?
It definitely gets me going. Watching myself turns me on.
What was it like growing up a (self-described) country boy in Texas, complete with a beautiful ranch and animals? Did it make coming out easier or harder for you?
It was great. I have some really supportive people in my life. That made things easy.
How do your family and friends feel about your porn career?
My family does not know, but I think they would be as supportive as they have been with everything else.
What are your hobbies, guilty pleasures and personal indulgences?
Sex, beach, fitness and more sex.
What led you to the porn industry?
I've been asked for years, but, until now, it was never was the right time...
With whom have you not yet worked at you'd love to (model, director, studio, etc.)?
Models Austin Wolf and Rogan Richards. I've pretty much worked with everyone whom I've had in mind, when it comes to studios and directors.
You are very sexually versatile in your videos. What is your opinion of "bottom stigma"?
Actually, I've bottomed in only one scene. I prefer topping, but love a good bottom.
-Your Men On Edge bondage work is intense! What was filming that scene, and bondage, in general, like for you?
Definitely was a good first bondage scene for me. Made me want more.
What do you now appreciate about yourself that you did not know before you entered the industry?
My confidence!
What led you to film bareback scenes? What has been the response from fans?
Honesty, I was not going to go down that road but, fans asked for it. I did it and that group of fans loved mybareback scenes.
What is your opinion of California's Proposition 60?
Vote! Very important to us in the industry.
Who is your fantasy porn star scene partner, past or present, and what would you do with them?
Rogan Richards. He's one man I would let him have his way with me.
Have you ever fallen for a scene partner?
Angelo Marconi. I ended up marrying him.
How did you meet Angelo Marconi? How long have you been together?
We met on a Nasty Daddy shoot and fell in love the minute we kissed. Unfortunately, we are no longer together. Some things aren't meant to be and life goes on.
You're a 2016 Grabby Award winner and you've been nominated for numerous other Grabby and Cybersocket awards. What does that mean to you, professionally and personally?
It means that I'm doing my job: making my fans happy.
Who in the porn industry do you admire, and why?
No one specific, but, I like the guys who talk to the fans and make them feel like they are important. They are the ones that keeps us going. Fans support us, so I like the guys that support the fans. That says a lot about a person.
What do you most want to accomplish in the porn industry?
Making a name and hopefully at some point start a charity to give back to people living with HIV; so many struggle with housing and food. I want to hopefully accomplish making a life where they don't have to worry about where they will sleep at night or eat for the day.
What do you wish that gay men understood about gay porn stars, and the gay porn industry, in general?
We are all human. Myself I want to find love and make my man happy just like any normal guy.
How and why did you decide to escort?
At first, it was to help get my name out in the porn world.
What most surprised you about escorting?
How shady some guys are.
What are your favorite and most hated aspects of escorting?
Not sure I have a favorite, but, most hated is showing up and the guy is tweaking. Not my thing!
You've transformed your physique. How did you do it? Please give our readers a workout tip.
I did, and it's a struggle. I am from the south and we like to eat. I just had to take control and diet is the key.
What's your favorite body part, on yourself and other men?
My abs, when they show. I love legs on a guy.
What are the most effective fitness rules that you instill in your clients?
Diet!
What personal training moments have most tested your patience?
It's the clients who don't listen. If they would, they will see a change. Some like to train for a week and say it's not working. The clients who don't listen about cleaning up their diets want a change in the body, but don't have the will power to change their bad habits.
What do you most want to accomplish in fitness?
Love to help someone to achieve their goals and see a transformation. That's what it's about-changing someone's life.

Thanks. It took a long time to get a beard to grow on me. Trim and beard oil.
What grooming product(s) can you not live without?
Beard oil.
What grooming trend, etc., do you most like on another man?
Not shaving!
When the curtain opens on your performances at The Nob Hill Theater, who would you love to see in the audience and bring them onstage for a torrid session?
Liam Knox; ufff!
What do you most want The Nob Hill Theater's audience to get out of your performances?
To say he was one hell of a performer.
