Danny Banks
Seven guys in, like, black outfits. And they're like, you need to come with us right now, ma'. Am. And put, like, my hands, like, behind my back. And they're like, they didn't handcuff me, but, like, my girlfriend's like, what is happening? And I'm thinking, like, they're thinking I'm here, like, escorting or something, you know, because, like, they do do that to girls. Like, they think they're working, so they detain me, take me into the back room. They're like, you're not allowed to be on our property.
Interviewer
Okay, guys, she is back. Danny Banks.
Danny Banks
It's me.
Interviewer
Lots happened since our first episode.
Danny Banks
Yeah, a lot has happened.
Interviewer
Yeah. Shortly after you came on, you got robbed, right? Crazy.
Danny Banks
I guess the whole world knows about that now, thanks to. Thanks to you.
Interviewer
Well, Ryan, too, right?
Danny Banks
Yeah. Yeah, the Pillow Talk podcast. I mean, I guess I went and talked my shit, but, hey, I told my truth.
Interviewer
Told your truth.
Danny Banks
That's what matters.
Interviewer
And then a few months after that, you got banned from the win.
Danny Banks
Yeah. So it was after that, huh? I guess I had a year that year. Was that two years ago now? I think it was.
Interviewer
Yeah, it was two years ago.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I guess I decided to have a little too much fun at a Raiders game.
Interviewer
Were you blacked out?
Danny Banks
I wasn't necessarily blacked out, but I was intoxicated. I was having a Don Julio day, if you will. And we were at the wind field, which I don't. Didn't really associate that with the Wynn casino. I mean, obviously, I know it's the Wynn, but we were just having fun. And I had saw some girls that were, like, partying, and I don't know, like, the crowd was, like, cheering me on, like, a group of guys, and I was just like, whoa. Like, I don't know, like, you ever been a Mardi Gras? You're just like, yay. Like. So I decided to flash the melons, and then I guess the security didn't like that. And then they, like, rushed me and they're like, you need to leave right now, ma'. Am. And I'm like, well, I didn't do anything. I didn't do nothing. But I. I got it on video, obviously. So when they kicked me out, they just kind of like, escorted me out, right? They asked me for my id, but I didn't get, like, a citation or anything. They're just like, you need to leave. So I'm not thinking like, oh, I'm banned from, like, the stadium or the games or the win, per se. So I just kind of was like, okay, cool, Let me just not go back there for a while, you know? And at the time, I had, like, my shaved head because I don't know if you remember, I shaved my head, like, actually right after, like, I had did a podcast with you because I had those same braids in when I shaved my head, actually. So I decided to go to the nightclub at the Wynn one night, and then me and my girlfriend were, like, having drinks at the bar and, you know, a little girls day. And all of a sudden, like, I had just paid my tab, you know, I think. I don't know if my card says Danny Banks LLC or whatever. Like, someone was like, wait, this is that girl. Like, because it ended up going, like, viral on tmz. Me, like, woo, yeah, the thing. So I look behind me, there's like, seven guys in, like, black outfits, and they're like, you need to come with us right now, ma'. Am. And, like, put, like, my hands, like, behind my back. And they're like, they didn't handcuff me, but, like, my girlfriend's like, what is happening? And I'm thinking, like, they're thinking I'm here, like, escorting or something, you know, because, like, they do do that to girls. Like, they think they're working, so they detain me, take me to the back room. They're like, you're not allowed to be on our property. And I'm like, what is this about? Like, I don't understand. And mind you, this is probably like four months after that incident. So I'm like, I. It didn't even dawn on me. Like, they know I'm the girl that flashed my hoohahs at the game. And they're like, yeah, you're banned from our properties because of this incident. I was like, what? So, like, I'm, you know, I hadn't been drinking. I'm crying. I'm like, I don't want to go to jail. What do I do? Like, what is Going on. So, yeah, they keep you in this back little room, they detain you. And they ended up. Then they gave me a citation for trespassing.
Interviewer
Damn. So they didn't even tell you no.
Danny Banks
Or like, obviously I'm not. I wouldn't have showed up to their property like, hi, it's me. Arrest me. Because I know they have like the facial recognition usually. So they trespassed me and then I had to get a lawyer and all this fun jazz. And I think my six months is almost up on my little probation trial that I have. I basically just couldn't get caught doing anything bad in the last six months.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
And I'm forever banned from Wynn Properties, including the Winfield, but I can go to the Legion Stadium. I found out.
Interviewer
At least you didn't get banned from the stadium.
Danny Banks
Right. Because I was outside of the Morgan Wallen concert recently when he was here, and I was scared to go in because I'm like, wait, like, can I? Am I allowed? But I found out I am allowed.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
Just long as it's not at the Winfield.
Interviewer
When is super corporate. So that makes sense.
Danny Banks
Yeah, but at least they don't own like all the casinos here, like MGM and stuff. Because I would have been banned from like all their properties.
Interviewer
You got banned from mgm? That would suck.
Danny Banks
I wouldn't be able to go anywhere, I guess.
Interviewer
Caesars and Resorts World, right?
Danny Banks
And I don't. I forget.
Sam.
Ones are connected. But like, yeah. Oops.
Interviewer
Yeah. Venetian's my favorite.
Danny Banks
I like the Venetian.
Interviewer
Venetian, solid.
Danny Banks
It's definitely nice. I like the Venetian. I like the aria too.
Interviewer
Arya is good.
Danny Banks
Cosmo.
Interviewer
I didn't know they were kicking out escorts. Because you see them like if you're there like 2am on the, on the.
Danny Banks
Floor, they're really like kicking them out. I think if they already have like prior or something or like if you're like actually like soliciting, like if you're like caught like trying to like turn a trick, maybe, like, maybe there's like undercovers. I don't know. It's not really my game. So I don't know.
Interviewer
Well, you hear these horror stories where they bring them up to the room and then their watch gets taken.
Danny Banks
Yeah, yeah, that happened to someone.
Interviewer
You know.
Danny Banks
Watch list still.
Interviewer
How's your current dating life right now?
Danny Banks
Oh, you know, it's.
My dating life is pretty cool, I guess. I'm dating someone that's in a very, very secure place in probably the most high end security gated communities in America. The federal prison.
Interviewer
Damn. Federal.
Federal. He Done some stuff.
Danny Banks
Conspiracy.
Interviewer
Conspiracy to do what?
Danny Banks
Whatever they think he did.
Interviewer
Geez.
Danny Banks
He's innocent.
Interviewer
How'd you meet him?
Danny Banks
On Instagram.
Interviewer
And that was before he was.
Danny Banks
We kind of knew each other and then we kind of like rekindled while he was in jail. So like. Yeah, I guess I'm a prison girlfriend.
Interviewer
So you're in a long term relationship? Long distance relationship, yeah.
Danny Banks
I recently went and visited him though.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
In the swamps of Louisiana. He's in Louisiana. So that was exciting.
It was definitely traumatizing. I never really visited anyone in a jail before. And we did the whole like photo thing and everything, so it was cute.
Interviewer
What's the photo like?
Danny Banks
You know where you take your photo with your prison bay?
Interviewer
Oh, you know, is that through the glass window?
Danny Banks
No, we got, we. We get to touch each other. Oh, the kiss and hug and what, take photos? Yeah.
Interviewer
Oh, I didn't know you could do that. I thought that.
Danny Banks
Yeah.
Interviewer
Glass window.
Danny Banks
We actually got in trouble because like I was like grabbing his. You know what, I got in trouble. They're like, we're gonna have to end the visit if you keep grabbing his crotch. I was like, oops.
Interviewer
Damn. You know, you're a real one though for sticking with someone going through that.
Danny Banks
Yeah, he hasn't really touched a female in five years, so it was a big deal.
Interviewer
You said a female, so is he.
Danny Banks
Well, I mean, I hope he's not touching the men, but you know what I mean, like. Okay.
Interviewer
Five years, a long time.
Danny Banks
Yeah, five more to go.
Interviewer
Damn. You're gonna ride with him for another five?
Danny Banks
Yeah, that's easy.
Interviewer
Damn, you could give up sex for that long?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I mean, I don't think about it.
Interviewer
Five years of no sex.
Danny Banks
It doesn't bother me.
Interviewer
What about for your work? Are you still working?
Danny Banks
I'm not really collabing with men. No, I haven't like in probably like a year and a half. I just did a couple scenes like for my of. But like I never really, you know, did anything.
Like collabing wise like that. I don't know, I think I just crossed that bridge when I get there. Like, I don't. We don't really talk about stuff like that anyways. It's like at the end of the day, like.
It'S reality, you know?
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
We just have a really strong bond, I guess more of like a really good friendship. I mean it's. You don't really know what it's like until someone's next to you. Right. Like in real life. So I think either Way, like I'm gonna be close with him and be friends and you know, people in that situation are very like, you know, they need someone and. Yeah, I just feel like I like to be that person for him.
Interviewer
I love it.
Danny Banks
Yeah. And he treats me way better than these free dudes.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Yeah, of course. Like, he really does. He treats me really good. So I know he has all these birthday plans planned for me. My birthday is in two weeks and he's like been setting up things for. With my best friend. Like, I don't know. He's just really sweet.
Interviewer
That's cool.
Danny Banks
Give him a chance, you know?
Interviewer
Yeah. Because you got offers to get into mainstream porn recently, right?
Danny Banks
Yeah, like I have had some offers to do some scenes, but I just kind of. I went back and forth with it like, do I want to do this with my career? Do I want to cross that line? And then I almost did. I almost shot with for like pogs, I think it was, and browsers. But like I ended up just not doing it. I don't. Just something in me was just like, nah. Which is nothing wrong with it. I just. I don't think I was ready and I just. I don't know, I just don't think I could do it.
Interviewer
Was the money not enough?
Danny Banks
I don't think it was more so money. I just think it was just kind of like, okay. I mean it's not. Like my content's not already leaked and probably for free anyways everywhere. I just. I don't know. Just something in me was just. I wasn't having it yet.
Interviewer
Damn. Yeah, I feel that. Yeah, a lot of girls go down that road and they regret it.
Danny Banks
And they regret it.
Interviewer
Like roads.
Danny Banks
A lot of like my friends that do the mainstream porn will always say like, well, I wish I just would have stick with the Instagram only fans route like you did or you do and which like I said, to each his own. But it's just for me, I just.
Interviewer
Ah, yeah. Of you have more control.
Danny Banks
Exactly. And like it's like up to me if my content's leaked or like, you know, I can choose my own prices and it doesn't have to be out there forever like necessarily, you know, we have like DMCA things like that, but I don't know, we'll see. But I don't have any plans in that in the future.
Interviewer
So you've been getting some weird fan requests lately.
Danny Banks
Not really.
Actually. I did have someone. I actually met him through my email. He. This is pretty normal at this point, but like I would have to, like, film myself going number two. But, like, from the. The angle of it behind me, like where the toilet seat is. So I would have to, like, spread my cheeks and, like, he wants to see the number two coming out.
Interviewer
What?
Danny Banks
Of my butt. And then I have to turn around and show it in the toilet.
Interviewer
Wow.
Danny Banks
But he would give me like, 250, 350 every time I use the bathroom. So I'm like, over here. Like, I'm going to the bathroom three times a day. Like.
Interviewer
Yeah, so you can make a thousand day.
Danny Banks
Yeah. The same guy. And then I think I was too much because he's like, all right, we gotta take a break. Let's go down to three days a week. And then I was like, well, I should every day. So I'm a.
Interviewer
Damn. That's that Dubai fetish.
Danny Banks
Yeah. But I'm pretty sure he was American.
Interviewer
Wow. So they got that in America too, then?
Danny Banks
Because he was Apple paying me.
Interviewer
Would you go to Dubai and do it?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I'll on anyone for the. The Dubai money. I'll on a whole party.
Interviewer
I've heard some crazy money out there, Right.
Danny Banks
I haven't got the offer necessarily. I think everyone just kind of jokes about it now, but I know it's happened.
Interviewer
There's one dude I know that pays girls to eat their shit.
Danny Banks
Okay, now that is crazy.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
I would not eat my shit.
Interviewer
I know a couple of girls that have done it too. No, no. He eats it in front of you. Oh, yeah. So you shit. He makes you go vegan for a week before, and then he eats it.
Danny Banks
While you feel like it's healthier that way. Or. I don't know. His greens.
Interviewer
Yeah. I don't know what the concept is.
Danny Banks
Eating shit is crazy. How is he not dead?
Interviewer
I mean, people drink their own pee. People.
Danny Banks
Oh, Lord.
Interviewer
People eat. You know, literally eat.
Danny Banks
Yeah, that'd be a good one. Like, eat.
Interviewer
I wouldn't do it personally.
Danny Banks
No. Fetishes are very, very weird.
Interviewer
You have any?
Danny Banks
Do I have any fetishes? Well, I know I always talk about that. Like, I like the pee thing. The pee is cool. Yeah. I like to be peed on.
Interviewer
Okay, what about.
Danny Banks
I mean, preferably in a shower.
Interviewer
Yeah. It's more clean.
Danny Banks
Yeah, right? Or not. Just be like, okay, it's gone. I just like to be, like, you know, submissive. So whatever my man really likes, I listen. What about only in the room? What about what?
Interviewer
Foot stuff.
Danny Banks
Foot stuff. No, but the guy I talked to now really likes feet.
Interviewer
A lot of guys, he likes Feet.
Danny Banks
Like, he's always like, I love your feet. I'm like, I have the fattest, ugliest toes. Like, he just loves my feet. I think he just likes feet. But I'm like, do you want to like, me to rub my feet on your dick? Like, what do you like? Like, do you want me to jack you off with my feet? Like, I don't know. Like, what do they like about the feet?
Interviewer
Foot job.
Danny Banks
Okay. So that's what they like.
Interviewer
And sucking toes.
Danny Banks
Okay. The sucking toe thing's cool.
Interviewer
You like that?
Danny Banks
I don't know if I like it, but you can do it. I guess.
I'm pretty, like, square. Like, in the. In the room. Like, I'm just like, that's a surprise. Bam. Bam. Thank you, ma'. Am. Like, I'm not really, like. I mean, I guess I kind of would do freaky shit maybe. I never really did anal and all that stuff. Like, I'm just kind of like, yeah, these two holes.
Interviewer
Yeah, analys. Next level. Plus, it's kind of gross, in my opinion.
Danny Banks
Yeah. Me, I think it's gross, too. And then, like, I'm just so. Like, are you gay? Then? Like, I just think everything's kind of gay. Like, I'm like, if you want to. Me, my. Why wouldn't you? A man in the. Like, I don't know. But then again, it's like, I don't know.
Interviewer
You'd be surprised how many guys are gay behind the scenes.
Danny Banks
I don't want to think about that. My man's in jail.
Interviewer
Please.
Danny Banks
Please. No, no. He's Jamaican. He's very like. Like, you don't play that shit. Like, no.
Interviewer
You've been in Jamaica? I've been there.
Danny Banks
I've been to Jamaica.

Danny Banks
I love Jamaica. I went two years ago for my birthday. Then I went before that, too.
Interviewer
It's one of my favorite countries, actually.
Danny Banks
Yeah. Jamaica, the food is the best.
Interviewer
Food is bomb.
Danny Banks
The beach.
Interviewer
Beach is cool. I got offered shrooms on the beach last time. I went, what you doing? It was sketchy because he was holding it and they were wet, right? I was like, why is this wet?
Danny Banks
Have you ever done them?
Interviewer
Yeah, have you?
Danny Banks
I've never done shrooms.
Interviewer
Really.
Danny Banks
I've never even done, like, Molly or Ecstasy. So, like, I'm not into, like, the psychedelic thing.
Interviewer
Why?
Danny Banks
I. Because I have anxiety. I feel like I'd be like, I'm having a heart attack. I'm dying. Like, I feel like. Like I smoked weed once and called an ambulance. Like, I. Like, I'm like a paranoid drug doer.
Interviewer
Like, I've been there. I've been there on weed?
Danny Banks
Yeah. Like, so now I don't, like, ever try weed because I'm terrified.
Interviewer
What about alcohol?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I drink alcohol. Obviously. Everyone knows that.
Interviewer
You don't get anxious on it?
Danny Banks
No.
Interviewer
Really?
Danny Banks
Maybe like the next day, like the hangover anxiety thing, but not anymore. I used to, like. I used to have to, like, take a Xanax the next day because my heart was like, racing. Like, oh, my God, I'm dying. But I don't do that in a long time. Like, years. Damn.
Interviewer
Xanax is a dangerous one too.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I don't know. I would, like. I was prescribed Xanax because of my anxiety. Like, I haven't taken those in years either. I'm just not into, like, the whole pills, psychedelic thing. But I do want to do, like, the ayahuasca thing.
Interviewer
Dmd.
Danny Banks
I looked into that, like, so, like, trauma and stuff, you know, not to, like, be fudged up, but I heard it, like, helps you mentally.
Interviewer
Do you feel like you have a lot of trauma?
Danny Banks
I feel like I have a lot of trauma.
Interviewer
Childhood or recent?
Danny Banks
No, recent.
Interviewer
Really?
Danny Banks
Yeah, like, my childhood was amazing. Like, I have no daddy issues. No daddy issues. You would think so, but no, my parents are still together.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
They treated us like normal kids. Spoiled kids.
Interviewer
Interesting.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I just decided to. I was like. You know how, like, those Catholic girls, like, have the perfect life and then they go crazy? Like, I feel like I was like one of those. Like, I had no rules, nothing like that growing up. Like, my parents were just like, live your life, do whatever. But I don't know. I just went crazy when I hit my twenties. Actually. I was crazy always, but I was always like a party girl.
Interviewer
So you were super Catholic growing up?
Danny Banks
No, I wasn't. That was just an example of, like, people who, like, lash out, I guess.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
You would think, like, since I wasn't sheltered, I would just kind of be like, whatever. But I just. I don't know, I just like to have fun.
Interviewer
Was it in college where I really ramped up?
Danny Banks
Yes. It was mostly high school, though. I remember I'd go to, like, college parties at our nearest college and I would, like, sleep in the high school parking lot and like, go to school because my boyfriend at the time was in college. I was just always partying.
Interviewer
Damn.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I started partying at a really young age.
Interviewer
Do you still like it as much now?
Danny Banks
No. Oh, my God. I'm the biggest homebody. I haven't Been to a club in months.
Interviewer
That's not even that long.
Danny Banks
I think I've been to a nightclub twice in a year. Like, I swear to God, like, I don't go out. I do not leave my house. Especially now that, like, I work, like, solely from home. Like, it's just. I just will go live or, you know, do, like, FaceTime calls. Like, that's pretty much what I do every night.
Interviewer
Yeah. Going out. I mean, as a guy, at least you got to buy the tables. It's pretty expensive.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I don't know how y' all do it.
Interviewer
Yeah. You get to just show up.
Danny Banks
It's like, if you're not a scammer or a ball player, like, what do y' all do?
Interviewer
Yeah. You're just a honest, honest living guy.
Danny Banks
Right? Like, good luck, especially in Vegas.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Like, 20, 000 for a table.
Interviewer
Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah. I'm not into that scene. You can't hear, too, while you're there.
Danny Banks
I know. And, like, my birthday is in two weeks, and I have no desire to do a nightclub party. Like, I'm just gonna do, like, Tao beach club. And I like day events. If I do anything. Yeah. So, like, I'm supposed to do, like, a little pool club party, and that's it.
Interviewer
Yeah. The day events hit different. The Encore beach club's pretty cool.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I don't. Haven't. Well.
Interviewer
Oh, wait.
Danny Banks
What is that? Is that a slap in the face? I can't go to Encore.
Interviewer
I forgot the two are connected. Damn. Is there another good day club? I haven't been any of them. How is that in mgm?
Danny Banks
Tao? Is that. I think. Is that your favorite? Venetian.
Interviewer
Oh, is it okay?
Danny Banks
Isn't Tao and Venetian?
Interviewer
It might be. I don't know. I haven't been to that one.
Danny Banks
Pretty. Pretty sure it is. Will come to my birthday. It's on the 27th. 27 at Tao.
Interviewer
Oh, what's the magic number?
Danny Banks
35. It's my golden year.
Interviewer
That's the golden year, isn't it?
Danny Banks
Isn't your, like, the five the halfway? I don't know. What's my goal?
Interviewer
I don't like getting older. I don't celebrate.
Danny Banks
Me neither. Like, but you know what? I'm gonna be 35.
Interviewer
Have you had a midlife crisis yet?
Danny Banks
I'm probably going through it now.
Interviewer
Love the honesty.
Danny Banks
Like, honestly. Like, look at the.
Interviewer
I'm doing.
Three Frenchies with health issues.
Danny Banks
And Three Frenchies with health issues and incarcerated boyfriend.
Throw the whole away.
Interviewer
Yeah. I haven't had one yet. Quarter Life, maybe.
Danny Banks
Well, how old are you?
Interviewer
28.
Danny Banks
Okay. We're not too far apart. You got hella time.
Interviewer
Yeah. As a guy, it's different. We peak later.
Danny Banks
Yeah. You know, so you're really like 23?
Interviewer
Pretty much, yeah.
Danny Banks
You're so. But you're not really, like, what's rock star lifestyle?
Interviewer
No, I never got into it.
Danny Banks
Yeah.
Interviewer
I've been dating the same girl for eight years.
Danny Banks
Yeah. Because you guys are getting married.
Interviewer
Yeah. So I never needed to, like, go out and I love that, you know.
Danny Banks
So you don't feel like, a need of, like, seeing other people or like, being like, you don't have fomo.
Interviewer
No.
Danny Banks
Which is good. Yeah. See, I don't get FOMO anymore.
Interviewer
I used to. Yeah, I definitely used to.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I. I think the only time I do is, like, when it's like, I look at, like, the life I used to live. Like, I'm always, always doing something fun or, like, moving around. I think that's the only time I kind of get fomo. Like, is like the traveling and like, just like shooting with other girls and content collabs and like all that fun stuff I used to do. Like, more like, more so, like content building. Like, I kind of miss just like, being out there to do stuff like that.
Interviewer
I see that.
Danny Banks
But like you said, you haven't really seen me do stuff in a while. But it was. It was actually a year ago this month that my original 8 million page got banned wrongfully by Instagram. So I've. I've had a gone since. For a year.
Interviewer
Damn.
Danny Banks
And I most likely can't get it back, but.
Interviewer
Well, no jumper just got their page back, so maybe you can.
Danny Banks
Really?
Interviewer
They were permanently banned on Instagram?
Danny Banks
Yeah. They gave me a cyber security ban. Like, I'm from terrorists.
Interviewer
That's the one you can't get back, actually.
Danny Banks
And I'm like, what the did I even do? It was basically like someone messing with me on the internal side. So.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Oh, yeah. It's been gone for a year. So I basically had to start from scratch with the page that I have now, which is. I'm at like 850 now. But, you know, it's a lot of work.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
It took me like 10 years to build 8 million followers, you know, and.
Interviewer
It was way easier back then, too. Not as much competition.
Danny Banks
Exactly. And now it's just like degrading because it's like, I gotta start over.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
And everyone's like, who is this? Where, like, you know, people don't know how to find me and there's still all these damn fake pages. And.
So it kind of discouraged me for a while. Honestly. Like, I kind of just, like, laid low, but then I'm like, I gotta get back into it if this is what I'm gonna do for my career still, you know?
Interviewer
Yeah. Now you're doing real estate. You're opening up salon suites.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I'm doing salon suites here in Vegas. I did, like, my cosmetologist license and, like, esthetician license, like, years ago. So if I want to do services and stuff, I can. But my plan is to just open, like, a couple different salon suites here.
And then I'm going to, you know, rent out rooms to different artists and things like that, do classes. Probably do, like, a wig line, because, like, I'm into wigs. Just, like, some fun stuff, kind of more of like a plan outside of this world, if you will.
Since we are pushing the age limit here, you know, Ain't gonna be this fine forever. Got a plan for the future.
Interviewer
You learned that from Mind Gaines, didn't you?
Danny Banks
Oh, yeah. My favorite person on earth. Because us girls ain't got to offer.
Don't get me started with that, man.
Interviewer
You got two fights with them.
Danny Banks
I hate him, and I don't hate people. He's just nasty. Like. Like, men that do not respect women at all, to me, are disgusting. Like, did he have mom issues? Like, what is wrong with him? Like, to have the platform that he has and to, like, ridicule women is crazy.
Interviewer
Did you go on a show?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I did. I went on that show, like, a couple years ago. Probably, like, three, four years ago. And then Michael Sartain had brought me back to, like, the little group thing. And then him and some other guy were talking. I don't know. You can look it up. But I forget what they were saying, but it was basically like, women hate type. And I was like, yeah, nah, I'm not gonna be. I'm not gonna sit here and have a discussion about, like, women that intimidate you, basically.
Interviewer
Yeah. Oh, so it wasn't even on a podcast. It was just.
Danny Banks
It was a podcast.
Interviewer
Oh, it was.
Danny Banks
It was Michael's.
Interviewer
Oh, Access Vegas.
Danny Banks
Yeah.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
And then they were guests.
Interviewer
So he just went back on that show a few months ago, and he kicked off four girls during the episode.
Danny Banks
Yeah, they. Oh, that's like, what he does. Like, he doesn't like to hear the truth if he doesn't agree with it. And when I originally met him, we got an argument then, too. Like, but he argues with everyone, so I don't feel like it's just me. Like it's clearly you. You're the problem.
Interviewer
What do you think about his co host, Fresh?
Danny Banks
I don't have a problem with him.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
I just think he's more like the be quiet one. Like he just lets him talk over him type, which is weird. But I guess there's an A, an A and a B in a relationship. Right. So, I mean, he's more the B.
Interviewer
You're probably so used to hate at online hate at this point that it doesn't even affect you. Right.
Danny Banks
It honestly doesn't. Like, I'm so secure within, like, who I am and like what I have to offer people and friendships, relationships. I don't. Someone like that man is not going to tell me about myself.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Like, at all. Or make me feel less than so good for him.
Interviewer
I mean, you're making a bag, so.
Danny Banks
Yeah. And it won't stop. So.
Interviewer
Got the MILF category to rely on, apparently.
Danny Banks
I never thought of myself as the milf, but here we are.
Interviewer
You're approaching milphage.
Danny Banks
I'm approaching milphage. I mean, I'm whatever. I'm a dog mom. So I guess I don't really have real kids.
Interviewer
You want kids?
Danny Banks
Maybe.
Interviewer
Most likely takes five years to get out.
Danny Banks
Oh, Lord.
Interviewer
It'd be 40. It's a little late, but it's doable.
Danny Banks
I think we could find our way around it.
Interviewer
There's other ways. Yeah. If he's allowed to get his sperm out somehow.
Danny Banks
Yeah. We could figure it out.
Interviewer
The ivf, they got some.
Danny Banks
They got some little.
Ways around in there.
Interviewer
I think you'd be a decent mother.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I think I'd be a great mom.
Interviewer
I think you've seen a lot.
Danny Banks
I've seen a lot. And I come from a good family, so, you know, I feel like I live the life I live because I don't have those responsibilities. But it's like if I obviously, like, became to have those, like, I would obviously transition and change things if I needed to. But, like, I don't know. I'm not against having kids. Like, if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. But I probably am going to be freezing my eggs at the end of the year, just in case.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Because they say around this time just, you know, I don't want to end up being 38. And they're like, okay, well it's too late now. Might as well spend the 10, 15,000 and freeze the eggs and just keep that on in the freezer in Case I need them.
Interviewer
Did you want them in your 20s or it's sort of a recent shift for you?
Danny Banks
No, I. I never thought about it because I never was in like a serious enough relationship where I'm like, oh, I want to have babies with this person. I kind of can consider like that as a deal breaker for me. But I think at this point in my life, if I really wanted kids and I wasn't in a serious relationship or like one that I wanted to have kids with a man, like, I probably would just have him on my own. I mean, I do everything else on my own. What the hell's the difference? Yeah, I don't want to chase a baby daddy around.
I don't want to. I don't want to worry about where my baby daddy at or who he's messaging or. Lord, no.
Interviewer
Damn. So you weren't dating like that in your 20s?
Danny Banks
Ah, here and there, you know, I was a stripper. Like, I was. I was fast. Like, I don't think those guys really counted, you know.
Interviewer
Where were you stripping up?
Danny Banks
Atlanta.
Interviewer
Atlanta. They're known for strip clubs there, right?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I did like Follies, Magic City Allure, like the whole shebang, all the popping clubs. I danced in Vegas like three times total. Maybe dance at Sapphire once. I danced up Peppermint, Hippo.
Rhino, like, you know, the regular.
Interviewer
What's the most you made at night from stripping?
Danny Banks
Probably like 12, 13, 000.
Interviewer
Damn.
Danny Banks
Yeah. And that was in Detroit, actually.
Interviewer
Oh, my gosh.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I hosted a. It was like Fetty Wap was performing. I think I talked about this before.
Interviewer
He's in jail now too.
Danny Banks
Is he? He's still in jail.
Interviewer
He got locked up for weed.
Danny Banks
Yeah, Weed. They're locking people up for weed?
Interviewer
Yeah, he was dealing it, so. Selling it. He got caught with a lot who can't sell. We.
Danny Banks
He.
Interviewer
Well, he's in Jersey.
Danny Banks
See, why are those states like that? New York and Jersey are the worst states to get in trouble.
Interviewer
Yeah, Especially New York. You're not winning any case you fight there.
Danny Banks
That's where my dudes in trouble from. New York.
Interviewer
They have a 98 conviction rate in New York.
Danny Banks
Yeah. And it's definitely gun charges. So he probably is going to be.
Interviewer
Yeah, they don't mess with guns out there. Damn. But yeah. What were you saying? We. Forget what we were talking about.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I just can't believe that they take it that serious there. It's like, who doesn't distribute weed?
Interviewer
What a statement.
Danny Banks
Well, I mean, what the fuck? Who does it? My dad grows weed. Like, but legally. But still like Michigan, you know, they allowed that stuff a long time ago.
Interviewer
There's way worse drugs.
Danny Banks
Yeah.
Interviewer
Than weed.
Danny Banks
That's what I'm saying. Like people locked up for 20 years.
Interviewer
Yeah. For weed.
Danny Banks
And I know people that are like locked up for like a little small thing of meth for like 30 years. And like, I think it's just all depends on the judge you get because it's really just like up to them.
Interviewer
Yeah. There's a lot of corruption within the court system too.
Danny Banks
I agree. So that's what I'm hoping. Like something passes sooner or later with this whole new Trump movement and all the stuff that they're doing. And the federal.
Interviewer
You get political at all?
Danny Banks
I don't, but my. I come from a very die hard, Trump loving family.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
So I kind of was always just a follower with whatever my dad taught me I did. My parents love Donald Trump.
Interviewer
Same with my dad.
Danny Banks
Yeah.
Interviewer
My. Well, yeah, my mom does now, but not before.
Danny Banks
Yeah. I mean, once you realize the other person is so shady, you kind of have to like the other person in a way. But I stay out of it. And I don't judge people by how they feel and I hope they don't do the same with me. But I don't really talk about politics like that because, you know, there's biased people and fans and things like that. And it doesn't really change.
Interviewer
People get so emotional about. It's not worth it.
Danny Banks
Yeah. But like, I definitely do support our president.
Interviewer
Let's go.
Danny Banks
So let's go.
Interviewer
Let's go.
Danny Banks
Maga.
Interviewer
Bring the stock market back, please.
Danny Banks
Can you drop the market rates down?
Interviewer
Like getting a house tough last year.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I mean, it's. I'm selling one right now in Miami. I'm actually closing on the 25th of May, and then I'm closing on a new one that I built, a condo, and then I'm turning around and flipping that. So like I have all this going on and I sold my house out here in November, which I wish I could have held off and waited because they would have went up pretty penny. But I just had to get rid of it. Too much traumatizing things happen to me at that house. I'm like, get, get this shit gone.
Interviewer
That place is haunted.
Danny Banks
It's haunted. I feel bad for the new people.
Interviewer
Like they gotta sage.
Danny Banks
As soon as they better sage that bitch, they better rub some stones or something. But yeah, so that's my plan. I'm just gonna get rid of these properties and I'm reinvesting into a new house here in Vegas, doing my salon suites. Probably having a prison wedding. You're invited.
Interviewer
I didn't know that was a thing.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I got casted for a show, actually.
Interviewer
Really?
Danny Banks
It's. Yeah, it's.
They haven't called me back yet, so we'll see. But it's love during lockup.
Interviewer
So you can get married in prison?
Danny Banks
I'm pretty sure. I don't know about the federal prison, but I know you can. The state prison. I don't think we're not actually going to get married. Like, but maybe.
Interviewer
Yeah, well, Vegas has those overnight weddings. I don't know if those are real, but. Right.
Danny Banks
I'm like, we can get married over the phone at this point.
Interviewer
I don't believe that's what.
Danny Banks
What's her face did.
I need all I need money in land. The Pakistan chick with the, with the drawing eyebrows. Nigel Robinson. The girl who's like missing in Dubai. Yeah, yeah, she married that guy over the phone. I'm pretty sure.
Interviewer
That's wild.
Danny Banks
And remember he. She had like a thing on. He thought she was a white woman or Nicki Minaj look alike and that's why she went there. And he was like, yeah, you are catfish.
Interviewer
That's some love is blind, right? Yeah, that show is crazy. Have you seen that?
Danny Banks
I love that show.
Interviewer
It's interesting.
Danny Banks
I mean, I feel like that's kind of my situation. Like, hello, we met. I know what he looks like. But like we met kind of like over the phone and.
Interviewer
Damn.
Danny Banks
I mean the computer, Instagram.
Interviewer
Yeah, that show is funny, man. I. I don't know what to say about it. It's just like I would do it.
Danny Banks
They wouldn't pick me though, because I'm like a known person. But like I would do that type of show. Like I feel like I'm such a sapiosexual. Like I fall in love with people's personalities and like way before. Looks like I could date a non goodlooking person.
Interviewer
Really? So you could date a crypto nerd?
Danny Banks
Yes, I would prefer that. Please. Where are they at?
Interviewer
You'd prefer a skinny kid?
Danny Banks
Like, I do not mind.
Interviewer
What if they're shorter than you?
Danny Banks
That does not bother me.
Interviewer
Really?
Danny Banks
I'm not like, I. If you seen some of my exes, you'd be like Rick Ross looking.
Some. Some overweight, some old. Like come on, bald. I. I've dated an old man before.
Interviewer
How old we talking?
Danny Banks
Let's see. I was like 22, 21. He was probably like 78.
Interviewer
Oh my God. Lots of sugar.
Danny Banks
He actually bought me that bag.
Interviewer
That's a sugar daddy.
Danny Banks
The old, like ancient, like Mary Kamo.
Interviewer
That looks expensive. I don't know much about bags.
Danny Banks
Yeah, like, that's like my vintage. Like, bought me my first pair of red bottoms.
Interviewer
Like, damn, the bandana changed the bag.
Danny Banks
Yeah. He changed my life. Like, I miss him all to this day. I just.
Interviewer
Did he pass away?
Danny Banks
No, he didn't die. He just married someone younger.
Interviewer
Oh, damn.
Danny Banks
But he was like, worth like he's like couple hundred million. I just didn't know what I was doing back then. Like, I wish I knew what I know now.
Interviewer
Damn.
Danny Banks
Cuz we be good.
Interviewer
You would have been se.
Danny Banks
We all be good. But it was. I just wasn't into. Like, I wouldn't sleep with him. I was like, nervous. Like, I was like, I have to be attracted to you. Like, I wasn't really attracted to him, obviously. But it was funny because I used to like, make my friends make out with him. We get all drunk at clubs and I'd be like, they'll kiss you. Like, because I'm like, like. But I was attracted to him because he treated me so good. But like, I just was like, I can't like, wish I could do it though.
Interviewer
I take it all back as physical gifts. Your love language.
Danny Banks
Yes. Nah. Yes and no. It's more like affection.
Interviewer
Like physical touch.
Danny Banks
Physical touch. Like, yes. Like to receive.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
But I guess like, gifts are more like what I like to do for guys. Like I'm. I'm obviously. I guess I'm a trick. Trick Danny. I like to do things nice for my guys.
Interviewer
So I like to spoil your guy.
Danny Banks
Yeah, I do. I don't think there's nothing wrong with that though, because I feel like I treat people how I want to be treated. So, like, I feel like you will reciprocate that type of thing. But I'm not one of those girls that's like, you need to buy me tension all bags a month and pay my rent. Like, I mean, that would be nice, but it's not like on my like, deal breaker.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
You know, I've been independent, making my own money for my whole life. Like, I don't even know what it's like for a guy to come and take over. I don't even know if I could allow it. Like, I'd be like, oh, I still want to do my own thing and have my own security. That's why no one could ever take shit from me, like, and leave me Up. That's why definitely have taken shit from me but me up.
Interviewer
So you feel like because you're always grinding to work on your and your masculine energy.
Danny Banks
Yeah, probably. I'm sure it's probably intimidating in Myron's words.
But I. I try not to be like I want to like allow a man to be a man. You know what I'm saying? So it's like even though I may be like this, like I will. I think any woman that's like, you know, in their bag like that will submit to the right man. Like and it doesn't really have to mean anything about like finances. But at the end of the day, like I'm gonna take care of my business.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
You know, so it's like I don't rely on anyone else. They will just add to the pot and I would appreciate it.
Interviewer
I mean it's tough. Most guys, if their girl was making more than them, I feel like it would just destroy them mentally.
Danny Banks
Yeah, probably. But you know.
Like I said, I think it just takes the right type of minded person. Yeah, right. I mean, I don't know because then sometimes I'm like, I've always been like the one that makes more than my guys. So I don't know.
Interviewer
Have you ever asked them like did that you up?
Danny Banks
No.
Interviewer
You should ask.
Danny Banks
I should ask.
Interviewer
I just feel like as a guy.
Danny Banks
I feel like they all just used me anyway. So it's like they probably didn't them up. They're probably. Yeah. This got money. I'm gonna take her for everything she's got. Damn. Kind of like how girls do guys. I feel like a lot of these guys out here do that to girls like us. Like really? She like what? So many of my friends get used for money and a lot of them are okay with it because they just settle to have a boyfriend.
Interviewer
Huh.
Danny Banks
They like pay you to be there. I guess. Hey dudes to be our boyfriends at this point.
Interviewer
I didn't know guys were like that.
Danny Banks
Me neither.
Interviewer
That's crazy.
Danny Banks
It's really sad.
Interviewer
Yeah. I want to work for my own. Like I don't want to relax.
Danny Banks
Yeah. See, that's a good attitude to have. That's what a man should be.
Interviewer
Why'd you shave your head? Because I remember you did that. I was like, I just saw her.
Danny Banks
The day maybe that's when my midlife crisis started.
I Britney Spears it.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
I was drunk of course. And I was just like. I kind of wanted to do like the shaved head look though. Like I wanted to ambrose it I did, I did. Like, and then my friends, that day, it's been in my mind, it's like I'm one of those people, I'm a Taurus. I'm like, if I say something like I'm gonna do it. Type like. So I did it and then I woke up the next day and I was like, I really did it. And then I was like, oh, well, good thing I have a thousand wigs if I want to just switch it up. But my hair is like longer than this now.
Interviewer
Oh, so that's a wig.
Danny Banks
Yeah, it's a wig.
Interviewer
Wow, the wigs are so good these days. I can't tell. Yeah, it's impressive. One side longer. Is that intention?
Danny Banks
Yeah, I did it. I did it like that.
Interviewer
Okay.
Danny Banks
I don't know, I just always like redoing wigs and stuff.
Interviewer
Do you feel like you pulled off the bald look or.
Danny Banks
I feel like I was surprised that a lot of people liked it, but now when I look back at pictures, I'm disgusted. Like, bro, no, but at least I had a decent shaped head.
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
Because some people shave their heads and they're like, oh shit, I didn't know my head was this shape.
Interviewer
It's dented.
Danny Banks
Right. Like my head was good and it was smaller and stuff so it wasn't like that crazy. But you'd be surprised how many fans actually like still request it to this day. And then I think it got cute when it got a little bit longer. Like, you know, I could kind of like style it and stuff. But no, never again. That was a short lived thing and I've been on my way up in the mental health world since then.
Interviewer
Nice.
Danny Banks
I think I hit my rock bottom and I'm good.
Interviewer
So your mental health is good enough?
Danny Banks
My mental health is good.
Interviewer
No panic attacks?
Danny Banks
No panic attacks. No. I mean midlife crisis. Ish. But like, it's just more like worry. Like I think my like biological clock type of worry. Like, yeah, kids, family, husband, what's next?
Interviewer
Yeah.
Danny Banks
So like, I think that's the only thing. But who doesn't have that?
Interviewer
A lot of pressure on women for that.
Danny Banks
Yeah. And if people don't have that, then it's like, do you really give a about your life?
Interviewer
True.
Danny Banks
So that's why I'm just really focused on like these other businesses and like planning things, you know. So. Yeah, I just don't want to wake up one day and be like, where did I go?
Interviewer
Absolutely. You know, what's next for you? Where can people find you?
Danny Banks
Yeah. So. Well, my new Instagram is its D A N I I dot bank. So it's, it's Danny Banks. And then I have Dannybanks TV as well. I do like my YouTube thing of TV.
