If there's no measure, there's no reality. And if you get to the place that you thought if you would get to that you would feel some sort of way and you don't, you just increase the measure.

I will feel like I'm somebody.

And again, what I was trying to do is I was trying to stack the scale in my favor enough where the kid that didn't have the dad would feel like I was wanted, seen, heard, known. He kind of spoke into all that. He's like, man, you've got acting experience. The porn industry is shifting. We're parodying all these movies. They're doing big films.

You can make a ton of money by doing the films, and you can do marketing with this. I've got deals with clubs in Vegas. They'll bring you out. You'll sit in the VIP, and they'll pay you $10,000 just to be there, all this stuff. And my career was going okay, but I was having more success modeling than I was acting. I really wanted to act. That was my passion.
