This week we confirmed the passing of [2] Magazine (click here) and updated the current status of the unfinished Zeb Atlas-Matthew Rush sex scene for Falcon (click here).

If web traffic is any indication, the Visconti Triplets are the New Big Thing (well, The Next Three Big Things) in gay adult. All three stories we’ve published about these gents are far and away the busiest stories here at Gay Porn Times (click here and here and here). As well, the death of Jean-Daniel Cadinot (click here) and the arrest of Nickolay Petrov (click here and here) continue to resonate. Another story that popped into back prominence this week was news of the Tom of Finland cologne (click here and here). Other recent stories riling up GayPornLand: the departure of Falcon Studios CEO Todd Montgomery (click here and here); Zeb Atlas getting blown for the first time onscreen by Jake Cruise (click here); Matt “Rod Majors” Sanchez diagnosing Barack Obama’s “gay problem” (click here); and whether the Blatino Erotica Awards (click here) were snubbed by the gay press corps.

Welcome to the holiday weekend, Constant Readers, but never fear! The work of porn continues apace, especially on this busy IML/Grabby Awards weekend. Our most heavily trafficked stories, once again, are all about the gorgeous Visconti Triplets (click here and here and here for more on these identical sibling studs) and Nickolay Petrov, porn actor and accused part-time hitman (click here and here). As well, our story on the passing of erotica legend Jean-Daniel Cadinot continues to resonate (click here) as word spreads; we recently heard from one of his former performers who had filmed several of Mr. Cadinot’s early movies and now lives a quiet life in Russia, where the news took over a month to filter its way down to him. Back to GayPornLand, the big story this week was the departure of Falcon President and CEO Todd Montgomery on Friday (click here). There was also some mild drama over our belated reporting of the Blatino Erotica Awards earlier this month (click here), as well as about porn pup RJ Danvers blasting an online Ford Models content as a “sham” (click here). And the bareback-vs.-condoms debate was freshly stoked following the release and promotion of BAREBACK POWER BOTTOMS starring Marco Paris and Josh Weston (click here). The comments-section debates may get hairy, but we do appreciate your participation, kidlinks. Keep it coming!

The Greatest Hits here on Gay Porn Times this past week are all about triplets (”Beauty Shot (x3) Visconti Triplets” and “Sneak Peek: Elite Male’s ‘Brotherhood’“), accused hitmen (”Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple“) and the passing of an erotica legend (”RIP: Jean-Daniel Cadinot (1944-2008)“). Blue-movie performers who pop up on reality television are a hot new subplot for pop culture vultures, the most recent being Alex “Militia” Castro: “Ex-COLT Hunk Returns to ‘American Gladiators’“. Looking elsewhere, the multi-car pileup between “Derek & Romaine” and Jesse Santana, Jason Sechrest and CockyBoys, generated quite a comments-section fuss: “Jason Sechrest, ‘Derek & Romaine’ Fight Over Jesse Santana“. Also, the Tom of Finland Foundation bottles the scent of a man: “Tom of Finland Launches Fragrance“. Oh, and there was plenty of drool (and other bodily fluids, I’m sure) over pics of Eddie Diaz: “Beauty Shot: Edible Eddie Diaz” and Tommy Blade: “Planet Porn: Tommy Blade Frolics in Vegas“.

It was a busy week here at GPTimes: First, we passed on the sad news about the loss of one of our own (”Remembering Mark West“); then it was announced Claudio Martin had left the catwalk to return to skin stardom (”Claudio Martin Returns to XXX“). The announcement of FalconStr8Men.com had our Constant Readers buzzing (”Str8 Guys to Wank for Falcon“); so did news of the re-release of a bisex classic (”New Release Desk: Catalina’s ‘Bi-ology’“). Elsewhere, Rod Daily had a painful mishap (”Ouch! Rod Daily Injured on Location“) and the Visconti Triplets continue to titillate and fascinate: “Elite Male vs. Bel Ami: Triplet Wars Continue!“. From the Dept. of Self-Promotion, we debuted the DVD insert of our latest fuck flick: “Sneak Peek: ‘The Crew’ (Studio 2000)” But the most heavily trafficked story on the site this week continues to be our post on the death of a blue movie legend: “RIP: Jean-Daniel Cadinot (1944-2008)“.

Here’s a summary of the most heavily trafficked stories on GPTimes this week: The comments section to our story on the passing of Jean-Daniel Cadinot is filled with moving remembrances and testaments to his influence: “RIP: Jean-Daniel Cadinot (1944-2008)“. Elsewhere, gay adult studios continue to consolidate: “Raging Stallion to Fuel High Octane“. One of the quirkier debates we’ve hosted in awhile—”Kyros vs. Thomas: Battle of the Emo Twinks!“—generated a buzzy response among our Constant Readers. Elite Male clearly has a gold mine on their hands with the Visconti triplets. Stories about the luscious siblings are tops with Gay Porn Times readers: “Elite Male vs. Bel Ami: Triplet Wars Continue!“. Crazy James Zinkland doesn’t win Big Brother, but snags a $25K audience favorite prize, shrugs off his amateur porn career (”Crazy James Embraces Porn Gigs“) and hangs out with Chi Chi LaRue (”Planet Porn: Chi Chi and Big Brother“). Finally, the sordid saga of Edmon Vardanyan continues to fascinate: “Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple“. Plus, our story about the gay porn skit from sketch comedy trio Human Giant is still popping up around the blogosphere: “Yes, We Are All Human Giants“.

This week the hottest items here on Gay Porn Times were anything to do with the Visconti Triplets: Our most recent story was “Elite Male vs. Bel Ami: Triplet Wars Continue!” and preceded by “Beauty Shot (x3): Visconti Triplets” and “Hunky Triplets Defect: Bel Ami to Elite Male” and “Elite Male Snaps Up Sexy Triplets” and “Three Times the Fun: Bel Ami Triplets!“. The strange, sordid story of Edmon “Nickolay Petrov” Vardanyan continues to fascinate: Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple“. And talking about a gay porn skit on the MTV sketch show Human Giant brought a lot of new eyeballs to the neighborhood: “Yes, We Are All Human Giants“. On the gossip front, Derek Brodie’s bottoming debut and Tony DiMarco’s defection from Lucas Entertainment to Raging Stallion stirred the pot.

Once again, our stories covering the arrest of Nickolay Petrov were among most heavily trafficked items over the past week here at Gay Porn Times: “Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple” and “Friday Update: Nickolay Petrov Indicted in Federal Court“. Elsewhere, the triplet wars continue to generate lots of interest: “Elite Male vs. Bel Ami: Triplet Wars Continue!” and our latest update on the legal travails of Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes brewed quite a lively comments-section debate: “Crime Blotter: September Trial Date Set for Kocis Murder“. News about Brodie Sinclair’s bottoming debut drew a lot of hits: “Brodie Sinclair Bottoms Up for RC Ryan“. We had word this week about another reality-TV star with an erotic notch on his resume: ” ‘Step It Up’ Dancer a Latinboyz Hunk” and a new underwear-fetish site debuted—”UndieTwinks Launches New Fetish Site“—plus another gay porn vet has a biography on tap: “In Print: Bobby Blake’s ‘Life in Porn’ ” Finally, a very brief update on Lukas Ridgeston still has folks buzzing.

Yep, the arrest of Armenian porn actor Nickolay Petrov continues to rank among our most heavily trafficked stories here at Gay Porn Times, even though we have had nothing new to report for weeks. This story just continues to resonate with various special-interest groups: “Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple” and “Friday Update: Nickolay Petrov Indicted in Federal Court“. Elsewhere, GPTimes cracked the pop culture consciousness: Jill Nelson and Jennifer Sugar, the co-authors of an upcoming John Holmes biography, both visited the comments section of our story on their book: “Erotica Legend John Holmes Gets the Bio Treatment“. And several members of the Human Giants sketch comedy group on MTV blogged or tracked-back to our reporting on their skit about the mysterious death of a gay porn star: “Bruce Penis Haunts Human Giant” and “Yes, We Are All Human Giants“. News of a new Cadinot got us hot and bothered even though (argh!) it isn’t available in the U.S. yet: “New Release Desk: Duos de Choc“. And three editions of Planet Porn sparked plenty of commentary and debate: “Planet Porn: Kristen Bjorn’s Skin Deep” and “Planet Porn: Black Party Beefcake” and “Planet Porn: Exclusive Pow-Wow in SF“. Plus, Lukas Ridgeston!

Happy Saturday. It’s been kinda slow in GayPornLand, but we managed to spice things up with a post about iconic Tony Ward’s feet and his connection to a classic porn company: “COLT Studio and Tony Ward’s Feet“. We can always count on Brent Corrigan to stir the pot. We were skeptical about the timing of his April Fool’s Day denunciation of the porn biz—”April Fool’s? Brent Corrigan Quits“—and two days later, he in fact revealed that it was all a hoax. But, yeah, some folks didn’t appreciate being yanked around: “Mea Culpa: Brent Corrigan Apologizes for April Fool’s Prank“. News about Lucas Entertainment’s latest sexathon filmed in Eastern Europe stirred some debate about whether the Euro-scene has been tapped out: “New Release Desk: Michael Lucas’ Auditions 23“. And news of the long-delayed release of a three-year-old Tamas Eszterhazy flick—”New Release Desk: Long Hot Summer“—had fans of the lean, inked-up hottie drooling on their keyboards. But the number-one stories on Gay Porn Times this past week, yet again, are two stories about the arrest of Nickolay Petrov, which is still slowly trickling onto the radar of various special interest groups: “Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple” and also “Friday Update: Nickolay Petrov Indicted in Federal Court“.

The busiest and most heavily trafficked stories on Gay Porn Times this past week or so dealt almost entirely with the Gay Porn Crime Wave© sweeping the nation. Random sites and media outlets, particularly those dealing with gay Arabs or Middle Eastern men, continue to pick up on the bizarre Edmon Vardanyan/Nickolay Petrov potboiler, thus making our stories about his arrest tops, by far, for the week: “Nickolay Petrov Charged with Attempting to Kill Florida Couple” and “Friday Update: Nickolay Petrov Indicted in Federal Court“. We’ve also got a couple of stories on Teyon and Keyon, the “gay porn twins” who went on a robbery spree and, amazingly, whose mother served as their lookout! Check it out: “Crime Blotter: ‘Gay Porn Twins’ Crime Spree a True Family Affair” and “Crime Blotter: ‘Gay Porn Twins’ Keyon and Teyon Arrested in Philly“. Imprisoned bodybuilder Mark Dalton’s fans are nothing if not loyal; they’re keeping our story about his latest brush with the law in the upper reaches of our rankings, even though the story is two months old: “Mark Dalton to Remain Behind Bars Until January 2009“. Finally, the whole sordid Bryan Kocis saga never fails to stir up passion among our Constant Readers. Hit up the search function for all of our updates; then scroll down (or click here: “Crime Blotter Update: Bryan Kocis Murder Trial“) for the latest court maneuvering of accused co-defendants Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes.
