GayPornLand pretty much shut down in advance of the XXX-mas holidays (boy, if the neo-conservatives are upset about people supposedly dumping “Christmas” in favor of “Happy Holidays,” then “XXX-mas” has to have them shivering in their Rapture booties) so there ain’t much happening this week. In forthcoming columns I’ll dish about my recent set visit of an upcoming Adonis Pictures flick, continue my conversation with Palm Drive Video’s Jack Fritscher and chew over other tidbits, such as the release of Jet Set’s WET PALMS 7-9 and the reissue of “Idol Worship: A Shameless Celebration of Male Beauty in the Movies” by Michael Ferguson (STARbooks). In the meantime, let’s take some time to revisit the year that we are currently shoving out the door, shall we?

This week in the “Adams Report by J.C. Adams,” Chi Chi LaRue is grilled on a cable news network, COLT Studio jumps the gun on “Brokeback Mountain,” and Titan Media shatters porn conventions with their circus-themed skin flick featuring adult’s only “man with a pussy.” (Yeah, you read that right.) Plus, in the derby to determine Best Newcomer and Performer of the Year, four studs pull ahead of the pack.

This week in “The Adams Report by J.C. Adams,” two top swordsmen call it quits, Titan Media goes where no studio has dared to venture and Michael Lucas loses his cock. Plus: “Cybersocket” nominees, Mark Dalton goes on tour, Gino Colbert has a new Asian star, and more of your picks for Best Newcomer and Performer of the Year. Elsewhere, you may have heard the news that four Bulgarian soccer players were expelled from their team for staging a steamy fourway in their locker room. I feel terrible for the guys, who were, after all, only doing what comes naturally. But gay gossip website Queerty.com quipped that the expulsion finally “[dispels] all doubt that Bel Ami videos are unrealistic.”

Although we’re already hurtling headlong towards Christmas, in our Thanksgiving week column I neglected an important kudo: Thanks to all of you. “The Adams Report by J.C. Adams” wouldn’t exist without our readers, and we are grateful that you devote a bit of your week to reading this column. And, just between us, thanks to your support there are big changes in store in the coming months, kids, so strap yourselves in! Now let’s get to this week’s news and gossip from GayPornLand.
