Hollywood Cash Talks Style, Strategy, and XMA Gold

Hollywood Cash Talks Style, Strategy, and XMA Gold

Hollywood Cash lounges in a hotel suite, relaxing after a long day on set. Draped in a thick designer bathrobe — ivory white with sleek black-and-gold trim — and matching slippers, he looks like he stepped out of a high-end lifestyle shoot. His calm smile and demeanor only enhance the effortlessly cool aesthetic he’s crafted, a polished elegance that feels natural.

“I’m a very relaxed, laid-back kind of guy,” he says. “If I get a day off, I just like to chill at home and watch movies. I like scenery, so sometimes I’ll go to a rooftop bar, have a drink and just look at the Hollywood sign.”

It’s a fitting image for Hollywood Cash — his name alone conjures luxury and ease. But beneath that cool exterior is a relentless work ethic. The Detroit-born performer may be only three years into his adult industry career, but he’s already amassed an impressive collection of XMAs, including three Best Sex Scene trophies in 2025 alone.

“I feel like I just got here,” he says. “So to be decorated like this is crazy.”

A Midnight Move That Paid Off

The story of Hollywood Cash’s entry into the adult industry is one of serendipity. Already working as a model for top mainstream agencies like Wilhelmina, he stumbled into adult entertainment by chance.

“I would have conversations with women and we would start sexting,” he says. “I would send a picture and they’d ask if I was a porn star. I would get that a lot, but I never really put any thought into actually becoming a porn star.”

Then, while scrolling Twitter late one night, he noticed an agency listed in an adult performer’s bio and thought, “Why not?” A spur-of-the-moment submission of his modeling photos led to his phone blowing up that very night.

“It was like 1:00 a.m., but they emailed me and tried to call me,” Cash recalls with amusement. “They were like, ‘Is this real? Can we chat live? Can we FaceTime you?’ I was just sitting there like, ‘This is crazy.’”

The agency? None other than OC Models.

From the moment Hollywood Cash connected with OC Models, the folks there recognized his potential. The agency’s enthusiasm wasn’t just a one-time fluke — it was the beginning of a mutually rewarding relationship that has lasted throughout his entire career.

“They’ve done everything I could ask of an agent and more,” he affirms.

While Cash’s natural talent and polished style have undoubtedly propelled him forward, he describes OC’s support as “constant” and credits the agency with providing the framework for his success, helping him secure scenes with marquee studios like Blacked, Evil Angel, Brazzers and Jules Jordan.

Tailored Tastes, Tactical Mind

Fast-forward to now. Cash’s sleek, confident style has made him a standout presence in the industry. With his cool smile and an eye for luxury, his persona embodies sophistication, but his love for fine things is balanced by practical sensibility.

“I like luxury, but I make it make sense,” he says. “I can go to an outlet and get my whole family some Gucci instead of just splurging on one piece.”

In other words, despite the glitz and glamour, Hollywood Cash remains grounded.

“I didn’t spend any money during my first year and a half in the business,” he admits. “So when I spend it now, I don’t feel it as much.”

That careful, practical approach also extends to his career. Cash knows the importance of investing in his future. With mentors like director Johnny Darko of Evil Angel guiding him, he’s learned to keep his feet firmly planted on the ground even as his star rises.

“The industry is like a revolving door,” he explains. “You never know if you’ll be a pivotal part of someone else’s career. I could be on set and it’ll be the girl’s first scene ever, or her first Blacked scene. It’s like being a part of something great.”

He’s also careful to pass on the advice he’s received, offering a thoughtful message to newcomers: “Work hard, be punctual, treat everybody with respect, be well-groomed and be humble, no matter what point you reach. Focus on your bank account, be appreciative to the fans — and have fun.”

Making Beautiful Music

Growing up in Detroit, Cash cut his teeth as a local rapper, performing in the city’s underground scene. In 2013, he relocated to California, first to the Bay Area and later to Los Angeles, where he pursued runway modeling. His decision to step into the adult industry was, in part, a strategic move.

“My main passion is music,” he says firmly. “I just wanted to make more money to be able to pour into the music.

“I didn’t plan on winning awards for this — I didn’t even know you could win awards in porn!” he laughs. “I thought I was just making money to fuel my music dream. So now that I am making the money, I’m trying to factor in the time to get back to the purpose.”

The recent loss of a close friend and fellow performer, Jay Hefner, has only intensified his desire to return to music.

“I got back in the studio and made a song dedicated to him,” Cash reveals. “You’ll hear a lot more music from me in the near future.”

The song and its accompanying music video are set to release alongside the finale of the Zeus Network show “Two Ways,” on which both he and Hefner were cast members.

Cash is already plotting his next moves, both within the industry and beyond. His ambition is straightforward but fierce.

“The only thing left for me to do is become the XMA Male Performer of the Year,” he declares. “That’s definitely a goal at this point.”

But his aspirations aren’t limited to awards. Hollywood Cash is also about experiences — chasing the highs that come from seeing the world and soaking in new cultures.

“I’ve been to Portugal, Budapest, Greece, the Dominican Republic — all over the world,” he says. “I haven’t been to Dubai and that’s been on my bucket list forever.”

For now, though, Cash lounges in that plush hotel suite, designer robe wrapped around him like the serene aura of royalty. Calm. Collected. Knowing there’s always another set to conquer, another beat to drop, and another chapter to write.
