Adele's Someone Like You by Gomnitus

I should not like this. There's the Brokeback Mountain connection. Continue to be meh about the movie. Then there's Adele. Love her pipes, but am not all over her. However, the combo works. Anyone want to bet Juice with Junior will call this the best thing since the birth of Erik Rhodes?

Why do I feel stalker-ish?

Here is the funny thing about interviewing porn stars. It makes me feel stalker-ish.

This is a rather hilarious  because stalkers, from what little I know about them, actually think they matter as much as the people they chase. Margaret Mary Ray invented a love life with David Letterman. Dear God, crazy woman! Why?  Jack Jordan thought it best to deliver a romantic note to Urma Thurman's trailer.  Dear Mr. Jordan: have you seen a mirror? Why do you think you are in Ms. Thurman's league?

Much can be said about me, but an incredibly large sense of self is not one of my multiple faults. Sure there are those delusional moments (actually think something of mine might get published), but do not assume there's some connection between me and adult performers. Yet begging them for interviews feels wrong because the balance is unfair.

When I reach out to a model, I've seen him naked. Heck, probably imagined him in certain scenes with cocoa butter and Barry White music. However, all they have from me are words. I'm hidden by a keyboard and a blog that barely makes a ripple. So maybe  stalker isn't the right word. Voyeur sounds more appropriate because their seems no balance in the conversation.

But even that doesn't add up because this is porn we are discussing. No model has ever demanded to know how I got access to his personal videotapes.

This is not making any sense, is it? Maybe that's why I can't get a gig. Lack of logical skills.

Pierre Fitch goes live for CockyBoys

If you watch gay porn, you know Pierre Fitch (NSFW). If you don't watch, what the fuck is your problem? Anyway, has Fitch aged at all over the years? A few more tattoos, a little more beef, but outside of that he looks like he did when he was doing stuff for Falcon (NSFW).

What explains this? Early Botex injections? Morning glasses of virgin blood? Baths in milk and vodka? The romantic in me wants it to be the virgin blood.

As you ponder the possibilities, get ready for his live show this week for CockyBoys (NSFW). The festivities will be this Thursday (March 15), at  8PM, EST. He's been a staple at the site,  first having some fun with Wolf Hudson. More recently he caused Seth Knight to bite the pillow. While he's a great top, Mason Star can attest to that, I prefer Mr. Fitch's ass filled up. Gabriel Clark (NSFW) did his duty of taking care of the Fitch booty. Time for the site to make him the centerpiece in either a 3-way or orgy.

Go to the lad's Twitter feed and explain how much love he has here. Beg him to leave a comment. If you really want to show your devotion, watch this week's extravaganza.

Jake Bass Interview

Today is a good day. Finally snagged a Jake Bass interview. The CockyBoys' exclusive has been breaking hearts ever since he first decided to appear on screen. I would make an obligatory comment about his ass, but there's no need for to repeat myself.

Thanks for the time Jake. Best of luck! 

What made you want to be a porn performer?

I never really wanted to be one, to be honest. If you had asked me that a couple years back, I'd of laughed and even been disgusted. A grave misconception on my part. At the time I was dating someone you probably know, Ralph Woods (NSFW), and he would of hated it. HaHa! We sort of broke up; I had built this unconscious desire of doing porn,  not only to piss him off but to push the boundaries I had. So, I tried it and loved it. Turned out that I was kinda good at it,  people liked what I did, and how I did it.

What made you work for CockyBoys (NSFW)?

Well, in some sense it was more CockyBoys that made me work rather than the opposite. I had only done scenes with VideoBoys (NSFW) at the time, and one day one of my producers told me CockyBoys wanted to have a Skype call with me. I was strangely excited and curious. After working with them, it all turned out even better than I expected. I'm exclusive with them now and loving it. 

Where are you originally from and where do you live now?

I was born and raised in Montreal Quebec, Canada. And that's still where I live :) 

How would you describe your sexuality?

That's always the kind of question I'd see someone else answer about me, rather than myself. It's kind of a hard question to answer because my sexuality is my own, and it's hard to compare it. I'm a really passionate person, VERY passionate. I'm always more comfortable with a model that I get to hang out with before the scenes. I like having some kind of bond with the model so I can feed off it while we have sex. Sounds weird maybe (HaHa) but I don't like having empty sex.

If someone saw you at a club, what's the best way to make an impression?

If you smell good, and have confidence, you'll make my panties drop! LOL. I like confident smiles. A simple touch can bring me right where you want me. It's all about interaction, I guess.

Your scene with Gabriel Clark has earned a lot of positive attention. What was it like to work with him?

It was good. He's a nice guy. I had met him a couple of times before even getting started in the industry. He used to strip at this place I like called Cabaret JP.  It was a lot of fun to finally film a scene with him.

Favorite book? Movie?

There are so many movies that I like; it's hard to pick. Probably Mysterious Skin and Donnie Darko. As far as books: I'm a big fan of sci-fi. Bernard Werber is one of my favorite authors and my favorite book of his would have to be  Empire of the Angels. 

Do you have a fantasy that you would like to see on screen?

Umm, besides double-penetration? LOL! There's not much I haven't done.

How long do you want to perform? What's your plan after you stop modeling?

I used to think, "Only time will tell." I never really had any type of plan regarding porn until I started working with CockyBoys.  They opened up a whole new perspective for me. Now that I'm here, I'm staying. Eventually I'd like to be a producer but let's not get ahead of ourselves, shall we? :-)

Sean Storm Interview

A writer who had the ear of an editor could sell a long form essay on Sean Storm (NSFW). The career of the actor/director is a compelling lens to scrutinize the arc of gay porn in the past 15 years. It's hard to fathom Storm's first video was the 1999 Citiboyz's production Frat Boy Sean & Friends (NSFW).The gay porn world was a little bit more solid then. Studios were selling DVDs and didn't that worry much about that thing called the internets.

Now studios are going the way of the 8-track, every body's grandmother is shooting a scene, condom free scenes are mainstream, and the porn star title applies to everyone except me (a good thing).

Storm has seen all these changes, even  been ahead of the curve on a few (use of social media, getting behind the camera,  and sex minus a condom). His career show where porn was, and why it's the way it is now.

Thanks for taking the time to talk Sean! We both know I'll be bugging you soon enough for another article.

More and more porn performers are getting behind the camera. You were one of the models to start the trend. What do you think you learned as a model that helps you to film scenes?

Working on many film productions as a model allowed me to see how each studio handles models, both on and off camera. I’ve also gotten to see first-hand how each director (and each one is different in his own way) handles models and the scene. Hopefully I’ve been able to take the best parts of each director/crew and work it into my style that has allowed the scenes I’ve directed for Cre8tive Juices (NSFW) to be effective, for both my studio and the models we’ve cast. It’s all about learning your craft, and having been a model first gave me invaluable experiences to take away from.

You were also one of the first performers to go back and forth between condom and condom-less films. Are you still doing that as a performer? What do you make of so many studios/sites offering bareback material (Sean Cody, Bel Ami, and Corbin Fisher to name a few)?
 
I’m not sure doing condom films is something that I’d want to do again. Mainly because I don’t think I could get that excited about the project. Personally, I  just really enjoy the experience of barebacking on film.

As for other studios offering bareback, I’m a proponent for it in the sense that I’m glad other studios have realized that is where the profit margin is greatest. Not to go off on a tangent, but I can’t think of any recent  condom-only studios that have become powerhouses in the industry. With that said, with so many companies offering bareback content, it does become a feeding frenzy when there is so much competition available.

How do you pair models in your films? Do you test them all, and pair models with similar status? Do you do your own testing? 

We first come up with a theme for the scene/movie. Then we start looking at which models would pair up best based on the type of person needed for the scene, and also on the models' own likes and dislikes off their model application. From there we filter out models that aren’t status-compatible. For instance, we only pair positive models with other positives, and negatives with negatives. We only require testing when the models are negative, though we do ask positive models about their viral loads. It’s important to remember that any poz model, with a high viral load, is someone who isn’t taking care of himself. He is still placing his scene partner in possible danger.

You say you only pair negative models with other negatives and positives with positives.  Do you take the words of models about their status, or do you do your own testing? 

We require a model to get tested, and to show proof of status at the time of casting.  From there we educate models that, no matter what the test results of either performer show, risk of infection still exists on some level. Just as it does in real life.

A model then has to make his own decision on whether he wants to still do a bareback movie. We don't force anyone to do a movie, the model has to make that decision. And if he chooses not to do a bareback movie, then he should apply to perform in condom films. It's that simple.

What do you make of the new law in Los Angeles requiring porn movies to use condoms? 

Not happy about it. My studio isn’t based in LA, but we were considering moving the operation there. Since we shoot bareback, LA is no longer an option. At least not now, unless the law changes. But the industry is resilient, and bareback will continue. If not in LA, then somewhere else. And
that’s where we’ll relocate to.

Why do you think models appear in condom free porn? I used to think it was because producers made them to. Is that an unfair assumption on my part? 

I’ve never heard of a single producer making, or forcing, a model to bareback. If such a producer exists, then that person is a pretty sick and twisted individual. As for why a model would appear in a condom free porn, I would hope it’s because that model prefers having sex without condoms and is not someone doing the project just to make a buck. A model has a responsibility to look out for himself in any way possible. There are many studios who release condom-only content, and those are the places that person  needs to be employed (if he doesn't want to film bareback). But if a performer loves to bareback, like me, then he should have the right to make that decision.

 How do you respond to bareback critics? They argue the films/scenes put models at risk and make viewers engage in risky sex. What do you say to that?

I realize that every critic is going to have his own viewpoint, and that everyone isn't going to agree with mine.  In particular, bareback critics have a strong view and aren't going to change their minds no matter what I say. So in many ways it's a lost cause trying to argue the point. What bareback critics sometimes don't address is that any sex performed in front of a camera comes with a risk, whether it's bareback or with condoms. How often do condom studios test for Hep C, herpes, syphilis, staph infections, the clap, etc? You can try to lessen a risk with a condom, but the risk still exists.

Why do you think bareback sex seems more appealing than sex with condoms?

I don't think bareback seems more appealing, I think it's more of a fact that sex without condoms is more appealing that having to see a condom in a scene. If you take HIV out of the equation, then there wouldn't be condoms used in gay porn at all. Bareback sex is natural sex. Condom sex isn't.
 
You've had a long career as a performer. Do you still remember what you felt when you filmed your first scene? What made you jump into porn? 

I just remember being the most excited sexually than I’ve ever been in my life. For me, doing porn is like a drug.  That first taste of being filmed jerking off for Citiboyz (NSFW) was incredibly stimulating. Even before shooting my first load on film, I was already thinking about how I was going to secure my next gig. I knew it was something that I wanted to keep doing.

Are there any scenes that stand out for you? Scenes where you and your partner really clicked? Moments when there was no scene chemistry? Diva blowups (grin)? Directors who wanted to get some loving (smile)?

My gang-bang at the end of Centaur’s Navy Blues: Deeper in the Brig (NSFW) stands out as a favorite of mine, I just really enjoyed that one.  I also remember my first bareback scene, and how liberating it was, when Jesse O'Toole fucked me in Treasure Island Media’s Cumsloppy Buttholes (NSFW).

I also remember doing some scenes where I had absolutely no chemistry with the tops. Almost without fail the tops were gay-for-pay. Also, any scene where I was treated in a derogatory manner by the top, such as being demeaned or slapped around, always pissed me off.

As for the directors getting some loving, I’ve been lucky in that they’ve all been really professional experiences. If anything, I flirted heavily with my directors early on because it was kind of a turn-on for me to get the director interested. Plus, it usually meant more work for me (grin). 

Where do you stand on models who are gay for pay?

I'm not a fan of this type of model. As a performer, I've bottomed for gay for pay models and it was always a bummer sexually when the straight guy has to look at straight porn to get hard before fucking my butt. There's too much of a disconnect, and unless the gay for pay guy is a great actor, the performance is usually lacking.

What makes for a comfortable/productive set?  

A comfortable and productive set is one where the models are into each other, and the director and crew are laid-back. I don’t like drama.

On screen, you come off as a bottom who can handle any size. Was there a scene partner whose dick was just too big? 

Big dicks are never a problem for me. But where I do run into problems is when a big-dicked top is ramming it into me fast and furious. When that happens, I can only focus on the pain and how terrible it feels. This takes me out of the moment of trying to make a really good movie experience for the viewer. Unless the viewer happens to get off on a bottom being used and abused
mercilessly. LOL
