Behind Blue Eyes: A Moment With Jackson Miller

August 10th, 2010 by aussieboy63

                When you first listen to Jackson Miller you would be hard-pressed to not fall in love with this educated and considered young man.  Of course his fine chiselled features and beautiful eyes would break anyone’s heart.

                Born and raised in Wisconsin Jackson remains deeply attached to the state and the people who live in it.  The balance of a drama-free life and his ongoing love affair with Lake Michigan keeps him from going too far.  I think it also says a lot about this unassuming and considered young man.

                Jackson’s entry into the industry was unusual because out of the blue Bryan rang him:

It turns out that after a conversation with my boyfriend about money, he thought it would be funny to submit an application to Boycrush (his favourite site) for me just to see if I’d be accepted. I had no idea he did that until Bryan called me asking when I could fly out. It took me about a week to decide I wanted to do it, and I’m glad I did!

So, in a blink of an eye, he was now a Boycrush model and of course the next thing is always the model name.  After a night at IHOP and 3 coffees and a bacon and egg cheeseburger he became Jackson Miller.

                Funnily enough it was not about getting nude in front of cameras in his first interview, but actually having to talk.  As he says:

“I’ve always loved being naked and flirty, so I mostly was excited for the opportunity to do it in front of the cameras.”

“Once I got to the hard-core scenes, the cameras disappeared and I was totally into the sex, which I hope the fans can pick up on.”

Anyone who has watched a scene with Jackson will agree, because it is obvious that he really is into the person he is doing the scene.  The cameo scene he did with Patrick Kennedy was one of the most intense and great scenes you will see on any site. 

                Jackson had a unique situation for his second scene, because normally that would be a hardcore scene.  In this case it was a Boycrush first double solo with the sexy Gabe Crawford. 

This was a really interesting scene to do. It was a Boycrush first, and I really didn’t know what to expect. We were told we were going to jack off together, and not have sex, but, obviously, I couldn’t keep my hands off of him, haha. Filming that totally took me back to high school, when you would be hanging out with a new boyfriend who you hadn’t fooled around with yet or watching porn with a “straight” friend, and you would slowly get into each other and whatever happened, happened.

From there of course he went on to provide us with another eleven scenes with Boycrush and Baretwinks before going into retirement.

                After he filmed for Boycrush he got into a serious relationship that actually lasted two years, and because this is a hobby rather than a career, he does not film while in a relationship.  When the relationship ended he caught up with Bryan again and gave us his 14th and I think best scene with a reunion with Patrick.  This commitment on his part is no surprise to me because when I asked him what his perfect night would be he said:-

“My perfect dinner would be an expensive French restaurant with great wine and even better bread. There has to be great conversation, otherwise I totally tune out. After dinner, he would take me back to his place, and we would curl up on the couch and watch a movie until we fell asleep or moved on to other things”

If you want to ensnare Jackson, then the best bet would be to go out and buy a bottle of Lucky perfume, his favourite fragrance.  Jackson readily admits that:

“…Lucky still drives me wild. The first guy I ever fooled around with was wearing it, and he was HOT. I can catch the smell from a block away, which at times has gotten me in trouble, like when an attractive co-worker was wearing it on my first day at work. Pretty sure I followed him around all day”

Jackson is also a sucker for steel-blue eyes and he is immediately attracted to them, so if you are young, wear Lucky perfume and have blue eyes, then it is likely that Jackson will be at your door.

What about Jackson as a friend? It is easy sometimes to forget that these models are still someone’s friends in their normal lives.  He is proud of the fact that he is the “go-to guy” at parties, because as he says:

“I’m always the “mom” at parties. I do have a lot of fun, but I like to take care of people, especially when they’re a bit too drunk, and begin yelling in foreign languages and throwing cigars at moving vehicles (Shout out to Tom!)”

Has he changed since he was that young man getting off the plane at the Phoenix Airport, well yes he has:-

I’ve become a lot more confident. It may be hard to believe, but I used to have a hard time with body image. I always thought I was too skinny, too short, etc. Filming for Boycrush and reading reviews from the fans in the forum has really boosted my self-confidence and helped me do great things in other areas of my life. I really do owe a lot to the Boycrush fans!

So take a bow Boycrush fans, because he is genuine in what he says, and he has gone on to greater things.

                At the moment he is a full-time student working on a second bachelor’s degree and during the school year he works four jobs, and then finds time to train for marathons (third one will be Chicago this fall).  Currently, he is working in Connecticut for the summer developing next generation gene sequencing technology. 

                Before I did this interview with him I really did not know much about him, but he is a very impressive young man who will go a long way.  Hopefully we haven’t seen the last of him and that Bryan brings him back to show them an old fashioned Boycrush model.  With his athletic build he would be a great fit with a CollegeDudes247 or Corbin Fisher, which would extend his career in the industry.  I think the best way to finish this story is with his words:

In all honesty, I’m a very well-rounded guy with interests in a lot of different things. I like that people like me, not just because of my body, but because I’m an interesting person who goes out of his way to make people feel good.

Did You Fall From Heaven?: A Moment With Preston Andrews

August 4th, 2010 by aussieboy63

                Look into those beautiful eyes underneath the blonde mop of hair and you will be immediately entranced by Preston Andrews.  There is something about him that draws you to him before he speaks or does anything, almost a sultry allure.

                When he first burst on the scene with Boycrush, his interview presented us with the picture of an extremely artistic and sensitive young man.  In that interview with Bryan he spoke about his hobby of glass-blowing and attending festivals, very much a “chill” lifestyle.  Preston

                So given all that, what brought him into the industry?  He explains it this way:-

“I was at a point in my life where I had really nothing going for me and didn’t know what to do with myself so I basically was at a fuck it point applied just to see what would happen and now I’m here today.. I always knew I would have an insane job like this though.”

His chance came when a Boycrush model couldn’t do a scene and Bryan called him up and of course the rest is there for us to see.  So on 23 February this year we heard “Hello I am Preston Andrews, I’m 18 years old…” and that was it.  This quietly spoken young man from West Virginia, who was inspired by the Titianic’s Captain Andrews for his name, had arrived on the scene.

                He has only done two scenes at Boycrush up to this point but both are pretty memorable.  His first scene with Miles Pride and buckets of paint is an artistic gem and of course his scene with Chad Hollywood showed what a real power top can do.

                Demonstrating his strong work ethic he has since done scenes with Helix Studios, Homo Scene and the Afton Nils GayLifeNetwork and has established a very strong and loyal following amongst his fans.    He believes that “…once you promote yourself enough and get a good fan base the new boys can’t touch you.”  When you look at the performers that have any sort of longevity they have done exactly that!

                Preston appears to light up when the scene is simply more than just the sex and there is some artistic input and his scenes for Nils have produced some great results.  Anyone who has watched Preston in Twinklight would agree to that.  As he puts it himself:-

“I want to act more…I think the b roles people are using just aren’t enough.  I wanna make porn more realistic and have actual story lines.”

That is not surprising given that early on Preston had visions of going to film school and that he is writing a script for an upcoming movie that he is writing and producing.  He wants to stay in the industry as long as he can and this thinking will see him continue for some time yet. 

                That is the story of the man in front of the camera but what about the person behind those eyes?  Preston is a very independent person, having to grow up very quickly when younger and learn about life on the fast-track.  Behind that cute face and mop of blonde hair is a very resilient and determined young man.

                Going hand-in-hand with that independence is a very artistic and low-maintenance approach to life.  Preston is a very artistic person, once being quite an accomplished glass blower and he used to attend a lot of festivals in his younger days.  Of course his busy schedule means that most of those earlier interests are too hard to juggle with his hectic lifestyle.

                Preston loves a relaxed and chilled lifestyle and really hates conflict and never liked going to be angry or with something unresolved.  He is the classic flirt and loves it when young men notice him and of course he plays up to that, but then there is always something a little sweeter and more innocent about a bit of gentle flirting.

                His muse remains Alex Grey whose artwork continues to inspire him and give him ongoing enjoyment.  When you listen to him talk on any of interviews, he always leaves you wanting to know more and it is that allure as much as anything else that attracts his extensive fanbase to him.  He soon hopes to have a new website www.prestonandrews.com and I am sure will continue to work as hard as he has this year.

                Just in closing I always ask if there is a question that they would like someone to ask them and in keeping with his nature he said : “Yeah actually (did you fall from heaven?”  He is not you stereotypical adult performer, so who knows.

If you want to follow Preston on Facebook it is http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/profile.php?id=100000566785545

The Classic Tale of A Southern Peach: A Moment with Jayden Ellis

July 30th, 2010 by aussieboy63

“Live each day to its fullest and stay very true to my southern nature”.

A very basic but honorable philosophy in life, but when you realize that these are the words of budding star Jayden Ellis, it rings very true.  This modest and unassuming young man from Georgia has already made his mark in a very short time, but he hasn’t let this initial success go to his head.

                Jayden’s entry into the gay adult entertainment industry has its origins seven or eight months ago when he and his boyfriend spoke about how sexy it would be filming them. Lying in bed they picked model names, with Jayden being Skylar and his boyfriend Jayden.  Realizing that the names didn’t fit the men, they gave their names to each other and Jayden as we know him was born.  His roommate Dominoxxx Priestly came up with the last name saying:-

“Girl you should be Jayden Ellis, that’s hot.”

Turning the name over in his head, Jayden decided that the name was right, and Jayden Ellis became the official name. 

“I still love the name I picked it has a lot of good memories tied into it and that’s one of my fav things about it. Without good memories that remind us of the past, life wouldn’t be near as happy and exciting.  I keep good memories close to me and think about them frequently!”

                After the relationship with his boyfriend ended Jayden mulled over entering the industry and at the age of 20 made that first step by contacting Afton Nils.  Jayden and Afton conversed for about three weeks before it was all finally settled, but then Jayden had to reconcile with what friends and family may say.  But as he said:

“I figured it was time to just go do what I wanted to do for a change”

Jayden went to Afton’s casting site and submitted pictures from his phone and webcam and after the frequent changing of emails, a date was finally set.

                He flew to Vegas for his first shoot, and was put up in the Red Rock Hotel, and it was special because it was the first time he had ever been to Vegas.  Coming from Columbus, Georgia Jayden had not travelled as much as he had wanted to but it was a great first experience.               

 Now that dreaded first scene!  Knowing his first scene was with Colby London, Jayden and Colby got to know each other as much as they could by text or internet.  Despite all of his preparation:

“…..the closer I got to the shoot the more nervous I got. I honestly didn’t know what to really think going into it. I mean it’s a lot to grasp at first. We get there and I was topping in the scene…”

“Now I used to do theatre so I’m used to lights and people being around me while performing, just not being naked and filming while getting stage directions haha. It was fun, not at all what I thought at first but deff a blast over all. You couldn’t have asked for a better first scene partner and crew. My second scene was with Skyelr Bleu. I bottomed and this time I knew what to expect and went for it. We filmed hard and fast and that scene was over almost in record breaking time and it hasn’t been released yet but it’s supposed to be a really hot scene. MY WHOLE BODY WHEN NUMB damn that boy can fuck! Haha”

Since those first two scenes he has gone on to do work with DomincFord.com, ClubJasonSparks.com and SouthernStrokes.com plus some work that is yet to be released.

                Jayden is one of the stars in Afton Nils’ long awaited vampire movie Twinklight, appearing in scenes with Preston Andrews and Krys Perez:

“2 super hot really fun guys who are amazing in bed!  Seriously you couldn’t ask for a better experience. EVER!

Given that the majority of scenes are one-offs with no real story line, when asked about how much fun it was to do Twinklight Jayden said:-

“Wow are you kiddin! Jk Yes Twinklight was the most fun I’ve ever had on set! Great cast great crew what else can you ask for! If was filmed in a whole new way with amazing sets. Very different than any other studio I have worked for. I could go on and on and on about how much fun this movie was to shoot!”

For those who loved this movie, there is a sequel planned with Jayden returning in a starring role.  Now that is something to look forward to.  He is also working with Nils on a new movie called “Twinks in the City.”

                So what was it about doing a movie with a story line rather than just a scene?  Jayden explains:

“I took theatre a long time ago so I know about lines and scripts. This one had a lot of dialogue in it. I enjoyed it tho! It gave me a chance to expand on something I really enjoy deff. Story lines are much more fun in my opinion it gives me a chance to really connect with the character and I feel that that sex scenes seem to turn out better because you spend so much time with the guys  that you develop a connection~! I feel like the best scenes or movies are when the actors have great connections and vibes and that’s one thing that Afton deff agrees on and it shows~!”

                Although it has only been six months his first foray into the adult industry, Jayden gives a real insight into what makes him special:

“I believe that the people we surround ourselves with help to mold us into the people we become. We live, we learn and hopefully we grow into better people. I have met a lot of truly inspirational people in this industry. My roommates say I have changed a good amount since my first porn shoots and Twinklight.”

“Also before I started with porn I wasn’t at all really comfortable with my body. Porn has helped me to be way more comfortable with myself and my body. It has honestly in my opinion helped me to reach more of my full potential. I still don’t consider myself the sexiest person at all and I’m deff not conceited at all! But being comfortable with yourself and your body is important for your growth as a person in my opinion.”

I would think that that philosophy would apply equally to people in everyday life, and this demonstrates how important his southern values are to him.  This of course is the perfect lead in to the man behind the name Jayden Ellis.

                When he is not on the sets Jayden likes to have fun with his friends and family, including hitting the dance floors and showing his prowess as a voguer off.  (Rather than explain what it is have a look at these links: http://gaylife.about.com/od/gayslang/g/voguing.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f62LpPPjNeE )

A love of food plays a big part in his life and he enjoys nothing better than going out to multiple venues and restaurants and having great dinners with groups of friends.  Keeping fit is important and Jayden loves running because it allows him to reduce his stress and to have quiet time to think.  Of course travel is a big thing and the industry has allowed him to enjoy places like Vegas, New York City and San Diego, but there is so much more he wants to experience.

                His relaxed and chill manner, which plays such an important part in his working life, is very much who he is.  As he says: “Relaxed I feel for me is an understatement haha I feel I am one of the most chill people you will ever meet! I just like to be along for the ride and experience everything!”

                What about his perfect night out for dinner?  Now Jayden is a true food lover and so that would be:-

“……a perfect dinner is the beginning of a perfect night for me. A dinner with somebody you truly enjoy can make you happier than you have ever been. I’m not even saying it has to be a date or with somebody you super attracted to. A dinner with a good friend is always fun to me!”

A night out with someone special shows that southern romance that makes him quite special, because they would only need to go somewhere that makes the other person happy.  So the perfect night:-

“In a perfect night we would go to dinner and enjoy each other’s company so much that we wouldn’t want to part just after dinner you know! We would go out for a walk or for dessert. I don’t usually eat sweets at all but when I have a dinner that turns out to be absolutely perfect I have to have desert to finish the night off! A great night could end in many ways. I would much rather not be asked to go any further on a first date. A small peck or kiss on the cheek would be super adorable and cute. I like to post pone the sex and what not.”

For Jayden the idea of leaving mystery and thinking about the night before is something that appeals to him and for all those budding suitors:

Take me on a date first if you’re interested in me! It’s real easy to win my heart J. I’M A HOPELESS ROMANTIC!!!

                Jayden has remained very private and discreet since entering the industry, but that has been a very deliberate approach.  As he says:

“I’m still a person my whole completely life isn’t for everybody! It’s my life! Lol I love to include people in it deff but I keep my personal life still very personal.”

It is for the reasons that I have examined that I hope that Jayden enjoys being a part of the industry as long as he wishes to continue.  This fun but unassuming man is enjoying his life at the moment and he is looking to the future with confidence and why not.  His plans for the future are exciting:

“I am working on a new site to be released around the time of “Twinks in the City” that will be called jaydenellis.tv. It’s going to be a whole new look on my website with some revolutionary ideas and new looks and a new idea on cam shows for everybody I can’t wait to finish it and get it up and running!”

A Perfect Host: 10 Years of Great Atlantic Media Group

July 24th, 2010 by aussieboy63

What person doesn’t love or use the internet every day?  Our daily lives are intertwined with the world that the internet brings us.  Do you ever for a slight moment wonder how we get to enjoy the world on our doorstep?  Simple.  It is because of people like Mark Wilson and his Great Atlantic Media Group.  Great Atlantic Media Group started with their first website, GorgeousBoys.com, and has grown to include an additional 12 websites or their own and hosting 67 websites for other clients.

            The man who started this is Mark Wilson and this is what he had to say about himself:-

I’m a native of Charlotte, North Carolina now residing in Atlanta, Georgia. I have a B.S. in Political Science from East Carolina University. During college and 6 years following I worked with the Scott & Fetzer Company as a Dealer Power Specialist.  Prior to starting Great Atlantic Media Group in I worked for Brent-Wyatt East Publishing Company for a number of years where I rose in rank from media sales representative to Director of Advertising Sales for the southeastern United States regional marketing area.

This astute man then realized that the market was going online and a business needed to position itself in that media to continue.  As he says: “Just take a look around and you will see where sales and the publishing industry has migrated to.”

            Of course simply starting up a company like this does not guarantee its success, and again Mark’s marketing background shone through.  Many of the group’s initial customers still remain loyal to the network and in fact these initial customers helped guide him in his endeavour. He remains committed to receiving and acting on feedback.

            Time flies as you are having fun, and Mark is amazed at how quickly time has passed since that first day, and his “to-do list” is still incomplete.  His two cats, coffee, Marlboro cigarettes and making people smile are the things that give him the most pleasure.  An extension of this thinking saw him start up the Gorgeous Boys Blog Network which allows people to have a blog of their own without the worry of censorship.  This is only one of his aims for 2010.

            His plans for the rest of 2010 are “To surprise my readers, present them with stories and presentations they have not seen anywhere else and unlikely to see in the future.”  Sounds exciting doesn’t it?  I have always found Mark to be tremendously supportive and encouraging in my initial forays into blogging, and encourage people out there to check gorgeousboys.net if you are thinking about blogging.

            As I say Happy Birthday to Mark and his network I will let him sign off:-

“I like to believe that each and every edition of our family of websites is convincing evidence that eye popping layouts, superb color photography, and solid virtual architecture will always lure an audience in.

I’m very pleased that on Saturday, July 24, 2010 GorgeousBoys.com celebrates 10 years of being online. Great Atlantic Media Group was created 4 days before that date by corporate resolution to service the business aspect of the brand.

The site began with the photography that was generated by recruiting male erotic dancers at a local male stripper bar located in Charlotte, North Carolina. By the early Summer of 1998 we had over 50 models. Our first debut online appeared in the gay web community of America Online. After having much success with AOL this lead me into securing a domain name to call our own on July 24, 2000.”

Happy Birthday to the Great Atlantic Media Group and the Gorgeous Boys Online Entertainment Network and I hope there are many more to come

A Scent of Hollywood

July 16th, 2010 by aussieboy63

Serendipity is a wonderful thing sometimes.  One of Boycrush’s new and hottest models, Chad Hollywood, only really decided to put in an application to model for Boycrush whilst sitting in a restaurant with Sebastian Rode.  He was driving Sebastian to a scene so filled in the application form and lodged it

                Of course he was accepted, and comforted by Sebastian who had been with the company a couple of weeks, he went to his first session.  Sebastian had convinced him that the Boycrush boys kept it pretty relaxed and enjoyable, and this proved to be the case.

                Once he became a Boycrush model he needed to decide on a name, but that was pretty easy.  Chad had its origin in a school-boy crush on a straight friend at High School and Hollywood from his favorite scent Very Hollywood by Michael Kors.  The jet-setting lifestyle that is portrayed in those advertisements is very much a lifestyle he aspires to.  So there you have it, Chad Hollywood. I believe few names would have as much meaning as his, and perhaps this is the very essence of who this young man is. 

                So with a new name, Chad nervously drove to the Boycrush studios, and in his own words:

“I was so nervous! I was shaking, sweaty and I didn’t know what to expect.  Once I actually got there and they showed me what I had to do for my audition I realised how fun and easy it was, and I calmed down.”

They talked him through what he had to do, and then he was basically ready and prepared for his first scene, which is always the interview and jack-off.  I am not sure whether Chad’s preparation for this first scene is in the guidebook for budding models but it seemed to work.

“Even though I knew I was going to be jacking off for my interview, almost right before I went into the studio I jacked off at my apartment.  I always jack off when I am nervous if the place and time is appropriate or if I can get away.  It always seems to calm me down way better than anything else!”

I am not sure Bryan would recommend this preparation, but all of those who watched his interview, Chad passed with flying colors.

                Chad’s first hardcore scene was fortunately with Sebastian, so being a close friend they were very relaxed with each other.  They had talked to each other about their sex lives for months before either looked at becoming a model, so there were no real nerves to overcome.  His second scene was with that very gorgeous and hot blonde, Preston Andrews, and fortunately they were able to chat with each other for an hour before their scene. Chad said:

“Thankfully we were both attracted to each other, so we had no problems working together.  While we were filming, the only issue was him fucking me harder than I was able to handle.”

I think most Boycrush fans who watched that very hot video would agree he held it together pretty well.  Pretty hard introduction to the industry, doing scenes with Sebastian Rode and Preston Andrews, I am sure we would all agree!

                The funny part about this is that in the interview Chad described himself in his personal life as a top, and of course in that great first scene with Sebastian he topped.  Since then of course he has come up against the well-endowed Preston Andrews and power top Lexx Jammer.  He has spoken to Bryan about this issue and we will see him being used as a top more.  His dream topping role:-

Now I would really love if I got to be top in a scene with Lexx Jammer, my best friend and favorite lover ever.

                Away from his life at Boycrush, Chad is currently majoring in business at ASU, and he hopes to go to somewhere like Stanford.  Fashion also has an appeal, with Chad really wanting to break into the industry as a runway model and hopes that he can build a portfolio that will get him in.  His love of fashion is obvious because straight after finishing his scene with Sebastian:

Sebastian and I actually both immediately went to the bank together, cashed our cheques, and went to Scottsdale Fashion Square to go shopping!  The whole while singing “Beautiful, Dirty, Rich” by Lady Gaga!”

                A romantic at heart, his perfect night would be dinner on a sailboat, or anything that says romance as that does.  He is a very sincere person and rightly expects that in return. The things he loves such as eating fine food, fast cars and a love of being pampered, along with the desire to live the jet-setting life that Michael Kors represents are offset by the simple things in life he enjoys. 

                Chad enjoys going to the mall with his friends, playing in the pool and hiking in the mountains.  Lounging by the pool, shopping, and spending time with friends are the good things he loves about life. His grandmother holds a very special and important spot in his heart and his life, being not only a guiding force during that time but being one of his best friends.  She did

                As far as the future goes Chad would like to stay in the Adult Entertainment Industry for as long as he can and has started working on his body to ensure that he can do so.  If he can he would really like to fulfill his childhood dream of becoming a runway model, but in the meantime he is getting his bartending license and is looking to get his pilot’s license.  As he says:-

I really try and do one good thing a day, for myself or for my future. I think it’s an easy way of feeling accomplished.

                Chad has a lot to offer, both on and off the camera, and I sincerely hope that we can enjoy his work for a while longer before he achieves his goals in life.  I have little doubt that this smart and driven young man will achieve all he sets out to and just hope that the industry wakes up to itself before it is too late and allows people like Chad to continue in front of the camera.

Years of Hard Work to Make An Overnight Success

July 12th, 2010 by aussieboy63

THE BRENT EVERETT STORY   

             As I talk to the many young hopefuls looking to make their way in the Gay Adult Entertainment World they talk about their plans and dreams in the industry.  The reality is that most will simply disappear, either by choice or design, once they hit that magical 22.  I won’t rant about the sheer idiocy of this magic number at this point.  Very few that want to carve out a significant career in the industry actually achieve their dreams.  What is it that separates these from those that fall by the way-side.  In some cases it is a matter of luck and having a particular look that keeps them relevant, but for most it is simply a result of sheer hard work.

                When I was considering doing this article I could only of course think of one man, Brent Everett, who has truly made 2010 his year.   He was named as a CR1 Exclusive and then followed up with being named as one of the Fleshjack men (highest vote getter by the way) and had his site BrentEverett.com won the 2010 Cybersocket Award for Best Amateur Webcam.

                I wanted to know more about this phenomenon that is Brent Everett and found that whilst there have been numerous interviews with him that I could not get a complete picture.  Using the various interviews over the past seven years I have attempted to compile a worthy record and tribute of one of the great guys of the industry.

                The basis for this story is the quote by Diana Rankin:-

“Instead of thinking about where you are, think about where you want to be.  It takes twenty years of hard work to become an overnight success.”

The juggernaut that has become Brent Everett has not happened by chance but the direct result of a committed and talented performer backing himself in a cut-throat industry.  The only piece of chance was the way in which he actually entered the industry, tagging along with then boyfriend Chase McKenzie.  They were offered some money to do a scene together and the journey had started.

                Brent quickly established himself as a star in the making and became the pin-up boy for studios such as and Tippo Sesso, Electro Video and Cobra.  The difference between Brent and others appears to be this enormous self belief that he possessed.  While many models yearn for the security that becoming a studio exclusive would give, Brent remained a free agent and was confident enough to remain so, and this still at a very young age.  As Brent said himself:-

“I didn’t just want to make big companies all the money.  I wanted to make it myself for myself”

                At the ripe old age of 21 Brent again backed himself by taking himself out of studio work while he was one of the smoking hot guys in the industry to build his own website.  It was a bold step to take while he was at the top of his game, but as we see five years later, it was a great decision. Like most new initiatives he had more than his fair share of teething problems but we now enjoy the fruits of that work. He also established the Triple X Studios, his own distribution company where he both performed and directed movies.  How was he able to do this?  The answer is simple because he was, and still remains, a thorough professional.  He built and maintained good working relationships with the big companies and was clear that he wanted to continue to work with them.

                Returning to the mainstream studio work he was snapped up by Falcon and Channel 1 Releasing and continued to build his reputation as one of the industry’s premier performers.  In between juggling a booming studio career and making his own website extremely popular, he also met the love of his life Steve Pena.  They have become a dominant partnership in the Gay Adult Entertainment Industry and their union has seen the Brent Everett brand explode in popularity.  The end result is all of the success of 2010, so to get back to the original comment, Brent has become one of the most bankable identities after sheer hard work.  His personal drive and self belief, coupled with the drive and acumen of Pena have truly made his brand a million dollar business.

                What are Brent’s plans for 2010?  As you would expect from this dynamo, plenty!  He and Steve have just moved into their new home and have an expanded studio space.  They have new models lined up and a new line of movies with them that will be coming out soon.  The recently revamped BrentEverett.com is undergoing another redesign in the coming weeks and will, they hope, give people a better feel and look as they navigate through it.

                Performance wise, of course the new movies from C1R, Chi Chi LaRue titled Fu*k U and Little Big League 4 will be coming out really soon.  He is also shooting another movie this week in LA, partnering Mitchell Rock in one sizzling hot scene.

                As Brent is the star of this article I will let him finish with his own words, and as you will see even those show why he remains one of the stars and most respected men in his industry:-

“I Just want to thank all my fans.  Seriously.  Without them none of this would ever be possible.  I want to say special thanks to Steve, George, and my parents.  Love you all!

More Than Just A Pretty Face

July 1st, 2010 by aussieboy63

                Unless you have been asleep for the last six months you would know of the Helix juggernaut that is Ashton Michaels.   His confident approach polarizes opinions, but it would be fair to say that he is the new generation of twink models.  Beneath his beauty ticks a keen mind that is clear on where he is going in life.

                Few people would know that we should be talking about Michael Mallory, because that was to be his model name.  Of course as we know, Ashton likes hot teachers, and Mr.  Mallory was hot.  Tommy Anders’ response to the proposed name was enough for Ashton to change it.  Taking Ashton from the ever so hot Ashton Moore, Ashton Michaels was born.

                What was it about the industry that attracted him to apply to Helix when he was 18?  Ashton perhaps explains it best in his own words:-

I think I’ve always been a sexual person, but I hadn’t considered porn until 9th grade. My friend showed me a picture of her sister, it was porn star Jenna Presley. http://i44.tinypic.com/j0h6iw.jpg  I was like WOW! She is gorgeous. I thought to myself ‘If she could make money by showing off her body and being beautiful, why can’t I?’ Since then, porn has always been in the back of my mind as a career option.

Living in San Diego was a real bonus with the Helix studios based there, and obviously appealed to them and he was signed as an exclusive.  He blazed onto our computers with scenes from power tops Michael Lee and Tommy Anders and the rest is history.  How did that first scene with Michael Lee go?:-

I wasn’t completely nervous, only a little bit. Especially since my first scene was going to be with Michael Lee and I heard about how he was straight and had a huge cock. Lol. It was a very nice environment. Nick Angels was the camera guy and he kept Michael Lee and I both laughing and Michael Lee turned out to be very nice and extremely professional. It was an enjoyable first time. ;-)

                After his first few scenes Helix spoke to him about being an exclusive for the studio but not wanting to be restricted in his work Keith Miller and he came to a verbal agreement.  Even at that early stage Ashton knew in his own mind where he wanted his career to go.  Then, after hitting the scene like a bomb, he suddenly disappeared.  When I asked him why and if he came back stronger he said:-

Yes, I would agree. When people think of someone going through a crazy moment in their life they think of “Pulling a Britney” but at within the Helix community it’s know as “Pulling a Tommy Anders” (no disrespect towards him). That is what I did. I told everyone I quit porn, I shaved my head, I went into seclusion. I went crazy for a while. Lol. All of the stress and pressure of being the newest hottest thing got to me and my personal life wasn’t very perfect either.

                So with a stronger resolve he returned to our screens, and continues to be one of the stronger self-marketers in the industry.  He expanded into doing Youtube and cam shows and both are extremely popular demonstrating the public appeal he has with his fans.

                Realising that beauty fades, he is working hard off screen to build another career and is currently at College making sure that he has something to continue with.  As he puts it:-

Beauty fades and I want to be remembered in life as more than just a pretty face

His normal life away from camera is very important to him and he just likes to hang out with friends, go shopping, and going to the movies.  Normal teenage things I think we would all agree.   As far as romance goes he believes that a night with someone special should just evolve and not be forced.  He is not a very expensive date either, because his idea of a perfect night is being taken to Red Lobster or Olive Garden, his favorite places.

                The life of a model can affect people in many ways and when asked whether he has changed much from the young man who made his debut with Michael Lee, he said:-

I was barely 18 when I first filmed. I was still a little boy in my mind and in my heart. I thought “Move over Tommy Anders because I am here and am going to take over!” Now I am a bit more grounded. I came into porn thinking it was easy and as soon as I made money I spent it on silly things. I think I’m a lot more mature now; I made friends, had some great times on set and have also had my bad times too. Overall I think I’m better as a person now.

It is a life that can take you on to greater things or can eat you up and discard you in a blink of an eye, but I believe that Ashton Michaels Mark II is ready for whatever comes his way.  He has been forced to do a lot of growing up quickly and I believe he will achieve whatever he wants because he now knows who he is and what he wants to achieve.  Why, because he is so much more than just a pretty face.

Alex Andrew: A Journey Through Time

June 30th, 2010 by aussieboy63

Hello Dear Fans or Reader:

My name is Alex Andrew (20 years old) and let me start telling you a little history about myself. I was born Saturday, November 4, 1989 in Baja California, Mexico.  I am the youngest of five children in my family and come from a traditional Mexican family where usually the sons cannot really be gay. My family and I all moved to the United States when I was a little over one year old and moved to a small town in Arizona and I lived in that little small town for about eighteen years.

Growing up I never had a “real” girlfriend whom I say I really had feelings for. I remember I was in like the third grade when I could say I recall liking other boys but not really sharing my feelings. I thought that it was a childhood phase that I would soon get over with and start liking girls once again. Over time progressed I didn’t grow out of the phase of liking other boys so that is when I realized that I was “gay”.

I am ashamed to say that when I was younger I hated other students or people saying that I was “gay” and it hurt really bad inside. I would deny others that I was “gay” and just hide who I really was. I would get teased sometimes by my twin brother or family and that hurt inside, I would secretly go hide and cry.  I think that I was just in denial and I didn’t really want to be gay or be teased like some are still teased today in society.

Let’s fast forward a little through time and talk about when I was older. When I was in high school I am proud to say that I was not afraid of telling other people I was “gay” if they asked. I was proud that I was gay and wasn’t afraid to express how I really felt, you can say that I really didn’t give a shit. Even though I was gay I had never messed around with another boy while I was in high school. You could say that I was a little boring because I didn’t party or do any fun things teenagers do.

When I moved away to college in Tempe, Arizona that’s when I came out to my family because I was afraid that they would disown me. At first when I told them they were not very happy but as time went by (four months) they came to understand that as long as I was happy they would try their best to support me.  They know that I am gay now but they don’t know that I have a boyfriend (Caleb Andrew) or that I have messed around with other guys, so let’s keep that a secret.

You could say that once I moved to college I became a little crazier because that’s when I began to experiment with sex and alcohol.  Even though I got a little crazier I am proud to say that I’ve had some of the greatest times with my life even though I have had some scares in between.  Now let me tell you how Alex Andrew all started.

Alex Andrew started when I wanted to get into the adult industry because it’s something I have always been curious of doing. I started watching porn when I was in like the sixth or seventh grade and I use to watch Sean Cody and his hot guys and I wanted to be just like them. I think that I wanted the hot body with some attention and that’s where my fantasy of adult entertainment started.

I started out by doing some web cam work for Flirt4Free (F4F) where Chucky Bear form SDBORDERBOYS found me and started talking to me. He was a very nice guy whom I have met in person now when I travelled to San Diego to visit him. I also traveled once to Ohio to do I test photo shoot with a company there but was not a fan of the way they do business so I have never really returned to them. Now I just blog (www.alexandrewxxx.com) about myself in search of one day getting a “real” adult entertainment gig and getting my name out there.

My ultimate goal one day is to start my own adult entertainment company and get my law degree which I am still in school for but there is still a lot of work to do for that still. I have also found a supportive boyfriend (Caleb Andrew) whom I have not hidden any secrets to and he has learned to accept me and support me through my life journey and goals.

Well I hope that if you have read this post about me (Alex Andrew) that you have learned a little more about me. Thank you for reading!

Sincerely,

Alex Andrew

I have been chatting to a great young man Alex for some time and have got to know him really well.  I know how much he wants to break into the Gay Adult Entertainment Industry and so I asked whether I could publish his story on my blog.  He agreed and after collaborating with his boyfriend put together an article which is posted below. 

I hope that when you read this you get a feel for these young men who really want to break into the industry but struggle to get the foot in the door.

Alex has a new-look blog  www.alexandrewxxx.com and is on twitter @AlexAndrewXXX.  Let’s hope this is the start of his journey

On Becoming Hayden Chandler

June 9th, 2010 by aussieboy63

A Moment With Hayden Chandler

                There is a process where a young man goes from being an anonymous hopeful to becoming a sought-after name in the Adult Entertainment Industry.  I have already shown you the basic process that Bryan follows when recruited his online beauties.  What we will do is show you what happens with a real person, and that person is that ever-smiling beauty, Hayden Chandler.

                A young man with an infectious smile left Wisconsin to fly to Phoenix and meet with Bryan and Boycrush, and his life was to change forever.  Met at the airport by Bryan himself Hayden was whisked off to Bryan’s home to start the transformation from average teenager to the very marketable model we now all know of.

Once he decided to have a go at the industry, he then needed to think of a name, which is pretty difficult when you think of all the models over the years.  With the assistance of friends he spent a week or so scouring baby name websites and then after mixing and matching, Hayden Chandler was born.  Demonstrating thoroughness so early in his professional life, he made sure that he did not use names that have been overused in the past.

                With his name ready, Hayden applied on the Boycrush site to be a model, and within days of his application received a call from Bryan.  After talking for a couple of weeks Bryan invited Hayden to Phoenix to join the great Boycrush family.  As Hayden said in his own words he and Bryan got to know each other, both “Making sure I wasn’t some creepy boy and vice versa.”

                Even though he was in Phoenix to shoot scenes, it was all still a little surreal until the actual day of shooting.  Perhaps now we should let Hayden tell you what was racing through his mind:

I was feeling and thinking all sorts of things!  I was extremely nervous yet very anxious to actually get started.  I just had no idea what to expect.  Of course you get told what you’re going to do, but until you actually do it you have no idea how it works.”

The good thing is that Bryan and Andy are so thorough which means very few mistakes are made.  It is not simply two people and a room and Bryan yells ‘ACTION’, there is a lot of planning and scheduling.  That is probably why we all love his videos so much, because they have that nice structure, as well of course, the models are hot.

                Imagine feeling all of this and knowing that your time is fast-approaching, and although Bryan and Andy help with advice, it is really all up to you.  Of course in the interview you have a chat and then undress and then do your thing, not as much pressure as the next stage, the hardcore scene.

                Hayden’s first scene was with Ian Graves, who was also doing his first scene, and they actually only met 20 minutes before they had to get started.  After that first scene was completed what were his immediate thoughts?

                I felt great about the scene and had a great time filming with Ian, and Bryan and Andy definitely made things a lot easier going.  I just felt very good excited about how it went.

Three weeks after the scene was shot we enjoyed Hayden and Ian’s debut on Boycrush, with Bryan and Andy making sure that the best product was there for us.

                Hayden at the time of writing has been in 8 scenes with Boycrush and Helix and his obvious talent was spotted by Jason Sechrest who has signed him up with DV8 Casting.  Hayden is an avid tweeter, as am I, and he is always approachable and is a young man enjoying a great ride at the moment.  Unlike a number of current models who have got ahead of himself, he remains genuine and level-headed.  It is that which will see him stay in the industry as long as he wants, after all Jason Sechrest saw something in him to secure his signature.

                In closing, again I will let Hayden tell budding Adult models what to do:

I would just say to be confident!  Do what you feel is right and don’t give up.  Be careful also, and use your gut instinct.  It’s a lot of work, but it all pays off in the end.
