"I have a lot of creative energy that I bring into my work and share with my fans, and I want to do work that is in line with what I envision for myself and my personal brand."

Adult entertainer Demi Hawks, who is a noted cam model, studio star and indie content creator, recently graced the cover of Cam World, and shared her personal triumphs in an exclusive Cam Star of the Month interview. Reflecting on why she first became an adult performer, Hawks confessed, "My fast and short answer is always, ’the rent is due!’" Yet like many others in the industry, Hawks also enjoys how the work empowers her to celebrate her sexuality and indulge her love for performing.

She became an adult performer after she found herself unable to make ends meet while paying for art school. Dancing at a club to pay for tuition, she met a few girls who also performed with a circus and, due to her flexibility and strength, she learned to perform aerial and contortion tricks. However, when the pandemic struck, and in-person gatherings were curtailed, those businesses shut their doors, and Hawks needed to find other sources of income.

Hawks always felt out of place in "professional" environments, where she did not feel like she was taken seriously. In the adult industry, she discovered a place where the things that make her unique are more celebrated. The streamer and starlet branded herself as a "bite-sized mattress actress" and since signing with Motely Models talent agency has been rapidly ascending the ranks of stardom.

Camming on Chaturbate

When asked which platform she cammed on the most, Hawks replied that she loves camming on Chaturbate, and it is the only platform she cammed on. Before signing up, she researched a few sites and found Chaturbate to be the most user-friendly and to have the most sense of community. She built a lot of her fan base and personal brand thanks to Chaturbate, and she knows she does good work there. She recently passed her two-year "cammiversary" at the end of January.

Hawks explained that she wants to see her face everywhere, and maybe it’s the Leo in her. She has worked with Chaturbate a few times to create promotional materials for the site, and she’s featured in some of their advertising. She said “It’s surreal to see my images used in magazines, on banners and signs at events, and to see myself featured in video advertisements on Pornhub. It’s such a funny feeling when the advertisement before watching porn is a video of you!”

Influencing Approach to Studio Shoots

Hawks said she has amazing and fiercely loyal fans who have watched her take a big step in her career to start shooting studio porn. Her longtime fans have been able to watch her grow professionally, and it means the world to her to hear that they are proud of her and love seeing her studio scenes come out. Hawks believes that because she has spent so many hours on cam talking to her fans and sharing her life and personality with them, they are really supportive of her chasing big goals for herself.

One specific way that camming has helped her with her studio shoots is that she was able to get comfortable shooting VR scenes quickly. She thinks there are a lot of similarities between webcamming and shooting virtual reality porn. She’s used to carrying a conversation with no one responding to her, looking right at a camera while she talks and films, and confident in her ability to carry a lot of weight of the scene and take the lead.

Hobbies and Overlap with Work

Hawks got her high school diploma by finishing her last two years of high school at a vocational school where she studied photography and graphic design. She was able to attend art school on a partial scholarship from the portfolio she developed there. She still loves to paint in her personal life, but she believes that working in the adult industry is creative in nature as well. The skills that she has in photography and editing, her understanding of lighting and composition, and the artistic eye that she has developed are very useful to her in her endeavors in the adult industry. She shoots most of her own photos and content and is comfortable on both sides of the camera.

In her social media, Hawks is authentic and shares what she wants when she wants it. Her fans love her because of who she is as a person and how she shares that with them. She writes her own captions, sometimes sexy and sometimes funny. She is most active on her Twitter, in large part because it’s been a platform that has allowed adult content for a long time. Recently, she has been growing her following on TikTok and Instagram, and she is happy to connect with fans on all platforms.

When asked about her plans for 2023, Hawks responded, “In 2023, I want to shoot a lot more studio scenes, make more of my own content and return to a regular camming schedule on Chaturbate. I have a lot of creative energy that I bring into my work and share with my fans, and I want to do work that is in line with what I envision for myself and my personal brand. In my personal life, I’m planning to travel this year and see a little more of the worl. I would love to go somewhere tropical soon! Balancing work and life can be difficult for me, and it’s a goal of mine to get better at that in 2023.”

In conclusion, Hawks is a talented performer who has found her niche in the adult entertainment industry. Through her experiences in the industry, she has grown both professionally and personally, and she has found that her hobbies and skills overlap with her work. Hawks is comfortable in front of the camera, behind the camera, and on social media, and she has a loyal fan base who appreciate her authenticity and talent.
