Bits and Bobs: More News from GayPornLand
February 17, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Bits and Bobs: A second helping today of news and other items of interest from the far-flung corners of GayPornLand.
* Blogger Zachary Sire takes righteous aim at the Bitter Betty commenters to my recent story about porn-biz romance over at Queerty. “No offense to gay porn blogger JC Adams, who wrote what was an adequate round-up on gay porn couples,” Zach said. No offense taken, I guess, even though he later calls me an asshole anyway. The story was posted on Tuesday this week, but I didn’t notice until this morning. [TheSword.com.]
* Mr. Sire also wonders why I didn’t mention Austin Wilde and Anthony Romero in my summary of popular porn couples for Queerty. They were left out because I had limited space and I wanted to generate opinions from readers. I didn’t mention Adam Champ and Carlo Masi, or Brian Hansen and Brad Patton, either. The story has generated tens of thousands of hits this week. [Queerty]
* Hotbods Cavin Knight and Tristan Jaxx are dating. They met on the set of Mr. Knight’s first-ever sexpic, FIT FOR SERVICE, in September 2010. “Tristan was there to film his first scene as a bottom with Tom Wolfe and he was quite nervous. I remember trying to comfort him, give him tips and tell him he’d be fine. They shot their scene directly after mine and I sat with Erik Rhodes as he directed their scene. The following weekend was the GayVN Awards and Folsom Street Fair and I was back up in San Francisco for them. It was at the GayVN after-party that he finally made his move on me.” Cute couple, eh?

Bits and Bobs: News, gossip and reviews from the far-flung corners of GayPornLand:
* Next Door Entertainment is launching a model search starting next month and continuing through October. “We will hit several states and provinces—big and small cities. Our hope is to find fresh new faces for [our] fans and members,” said president Stephan Sirard. [XBIZ]
* AVN reports straight-biz starlet Kayden Kross was a scheduled panelist on the Fox Business Channel show Stossel last night to discuss the new mandatory condom law in Los Angeles County. Conservative host John Stossel “takes a stance on the show against the law as absurd, noting that those who passed it can’t seem to figure out how to cut the city’s budget, yet want to pay for ‘porn police’ to force adult actors to wear condoms.” Look for rebroadcasts this weekend. [AVN]
* Adult-biz advocacy organization the Free Speech Coalition is surveying performers about Adult Production Health & Safety Services (APHSS), the program quickly set up last year by the group following the abrupt closure of AIM Healthcare. “The survey is meant to gather feedback about the testing program and will be sent to performers, producers and agents that have signed up for the program,” the FSC notes on its blog. Information gathered “will be used to improve the testing program, and help to provide the best program possible to performers and other participants.” [FSC blog]

Hot Links: Tag Eriksson
January 23, 2012 | 4 Comments
Former skin stud and renaissance man Tag Eriksson, now known by his given name of Fredrik Eklund, remains one of the site’s top search terms. The reality series Million Dollar Listing New York has long been rumored to feature the handsome hunk; we’ll know shortly as the Bravo cable network recently announced the show will debut in March. See the links below for background. As Eriksson, Mr. Eklund filmed only a handful of blue movies in 2003 and ’04 for Jet Set Men, most of which have been repacked into numerous compilations. Award-winner THE HOLE, an erotic riff on the horror film The Ring, was his big star-making role, and one of the best all-male sexpics of the decade. It was also one of writer/director Wash West‘s final forays in the genre before he jumped to the indie-film circuit.

Click early, click often, on the links below to some of the more heavily trafficked stories on GPTimes.

Chime in below. Mazel.
