High School Coach Fired For Gay Porn Ties

Josh Weast, a 22-year-old cheerleading coach at a Catholic high school in Illinois, was fired when the principal discovered he appeared in gay porn, the Associated Press reported yesterday.

It only took a few hours for the sleuths at Qweerty to find Josh's MySpace Profile.

Judging from a familiarly watermarked picture in his profile, they surmised that he was a Falcon star. Clearly, they hadn't seen Cross Country, or they would have recognized him as Andrew Bryant, who was in the fourway in Part 1, (he was also in the orgy scene in Driver).

Even more gratutious photos after the jump!

Gus Mattox Breaks Our Heart

There are few porn stars that make my heart leap the way that Gus Mattox does. Jack and I first met him on the set of Wet Palms where he more than lived up to his reputation as a fiercely handsome, disarmingly charming and all-around good guy. Chalk his two-year dip into adult up as "too good to last" -- the sexy fox is retiring. To go back to the theater, no less, in a new original production by Terrence McNally (Love! Valour! Compassion!). Oh well, it beats shuffleboard.

Gus (now known to the world by his rightful name, Tom Judson) granted us his last (well, first of last) industry interview. I have to go before I get teary...

Now that you are retiring, will you be moving to Florida or Arizona?
I'm trying to find out if I qualify for the Motion Picture Home.

What's your most indelible memory of the industry you are leaving behind?
Well, there's not really a specific thing, but as I slowly became aware of the fact that other people in the industry knew who I was I found it surprisingly--what?--satisfying, I guess. I was having so much fun that it never occurred to me that people were taking notice. I did a scene with a very sexy guy who was making his debut and he told me he was nervous about meeting me! I kept looking over my shoulder to see who he was talking to. In a similar vein it's why winning Performer of the Year felt so good. I looked on the bottom of the trophy expecting to see "Well done, good and faithful servant," because that's how it felt. Sort of like the industry saying, "You done good, kid."

You've won GayVN Performer of the Year, are you gunning for a Tony?
Not in the part I'll be playing in "Some Men" (the new play I'm doing in May)! Don't get me wrong, I'd sit on the side of the stage with a bag over my head to be in a Terrence McNally play, but my part mostly involves playing the piano as background and accompanying some of the other actors. The script is wonderful and has a couple of references to porn and to escorting, which gave me a chuckle. I fully expect everyone to turn and look at me during the table read when those things come up. Trust me, I fully subscribe to the maxim "There are no small parts. Just itty bitty teeny little actors."

I imagine the casting directors of Oh! Calcutta! are thrilled with your news. How has your stint in the adult industry affected your mainstream career?
Y'know, I think it's only affected it positively. I did a couple of shows during my run in porn, but focused mostly on the movies. The creative team for "Some Men" is fully aware of Gus Mattox. On other things, like a couple of freelance writing gigs, the subject just never came up. Look, if people know who I am--however they know--it can help me to at least get in the door.

Was this something you've been planning for a while? Waiting to see if you won the award and then spring the big news on an unsuspecting public?
100% no. I was even in the middle of talking to a couple of people about upcoming projects. Winning the award was the catalyst that started me thinking about what really would be the best way to plan how to handle the twilight of my career (violins, please.)

You're leaving us behind like a stain on a bedsheet. How are we supposed to go on?
As my father-in-law says, "Woodlawn Cemetery is filled with irreplaceable people." (He also suggested I ask if it's alright if I put my GayVN award on the piano in the play! What a guy.) One thing about this business that I love is that there are always new faces coming along all the time. I'm convinced I'm the oldest guy working steadily, which may make me an interesting footnote. But you'll be amazed how easily you'll all go on.

Does this mean we have to kill off Randall Jett?
Hmmmm.... Adriana showed up in the first episode of the new season of "The Sopranos" and she had been whacked in the woods. I hear the guys that write that "Wet Palms" thing are pretty clever, so maybe they can figure something out.

Some of my favorite Gus Mattox moments:

Gus, as patriarch Randall Jett, in Wet Palms
Gus, as a derelict flight captain, in Taking Flight

Tom Katt: Born-Again Bottom Goes "Gay for Pray"

Before there was the tiresome masquerade known around Hollywood as TomKat, there was Tom Katt, a somewhat sexually confused bottom who's absurdly over-muscled physique garnered him a rabidly devoted muscle-worshipping fan base.

After years and years of working himself out until his body looked like a balloon ready to pop, the larger-than-life star announced his retirement from gay porn with a bang a few weeks ago: Not only is he retiring, but he's also (a) giving up trying to be gay (b) discovered Jesus and (c) enrolled in the Seminary.

It was in a recent issue of the Dallas Voice, Katt -- now David Papaleo, 36 -- declaired that he's decided to say goodbye dicks in his ass, steroids in his veins and cocaine up his nose ... and hello Christ in his heart.

Despite being romantically linked to fellow bigorexic Caesar for several years, his gay/bi days are behind him. To his credit, he makes a point of saying that his interpretation of the Bible doesn't rule out man-on-man sex. Thanks, guy.

Curiously enough, of course, this isn't the first -- or even the third -- time that a gay-for-pay mega-star cracked under the pressure and tuned into Christ for guidance. It was almost two years ago that Ryan Idol started hawking quasi-Christian gear on his website (he's since shifted to what appears to be a regular old pyramid scheme).

There's a long-standing rumor that Ken Ryker had a spiritual awakening so strong that he got on an ersatz bully pulpit and convinced Hal, Shane and Vince Rockland into never sucking on anything bigger than a communion wafer.

So stricken with guilt, all three Rocklands reportedly walked off the set of Gino Colbert's Three Brothers (making it a phenomenal swan song at that). Vince crept back into porn, but Shane and Hal were never heard from again, which is really a shame, since Hal does it for me like few others can.

Is there something inherent about the pressure of being a gay-for-pay porn legend that prompts them to search for a higher power? Or does J.C. just like torturing us fags by stealing away our favorites? One thing's for sure: Tom Katt's not going to be the last. Anyone care to wager on who's going to be the next convert?

Did you you miss the ice throwing controversy, the rush on the free bar ("I'm gonna get fuckin' retarded tonight," correctly prophesies Falcon's Erik Rhodes) and the wild fashions (garish appliques! missing shirts! torn-buttocked jeans!) of the biggest night for the industry's greatest cocksmen? Now you can see all the flesh and flash in all its glory. Yes, the 2006 GayVN Awards are live on NakedSword -- and not a moment too soon. Join (mister) Sister Roma as she interviews Pete Ross's parents ("He's always been very loving," coos mom), molests Matthew Rush and campaigns for last-minute write-in votes for "Best Oral."

Gay Twin Porn: Where Incest Meets Narcissism

There's a new set of sexy gay twins doing the porn rounds, but they haven't seemed to be able to settle on a name. In High Octane's Twin Towers (above, left), they're listed as Alex and Ian Lynch. In Studio 2000's Twin Devils (above, middle), they're listed as Jack and James LaCroix. In Bel Ami's Flings 2, they're listed as Daniel and Jean Lautrec.

In all three movies, they appear in the same scene and have sex with other men but don't touch each other. This puts them in the same category as other identical twins who almost have sex on camera, alongside Dean and Dave Resnick, and Gabriel and Oscar Odyssey.

Will they ever decide on a name? More importantly ... will they ever fuck each other on camera? If they do take the incestual plunge, they wont be the first, either. Gay porn has often flirted with the idea of getting two twins to fuck, but has only legitimately delivered twice, as far as I know.

The first is Bijou's Twins: Nature's Amazing Mystery, a pseudo-documentary peeking into the "narcissistic world" of three sets of real fucking twins: The Christy twins, The O'brien twins and the Karistadt twins. The only verifiable twins in the bunch being Tim and Chris Christy, these skinny, shaggy surfers dudes from Venice, CA, who were a late-seventies parlor trick of sorts, appearing in seven movies together including three for Falcon.

If grainy, pre-condom twin sex isn't your thing, then I highly recommend Double Czech, which after a long, slow build up features Jirka and Karel Bartok taking turns fucking each other (actually, I have no idea if they're flip-flopping -- you really can't tell them apart). A bonus interview reveals that the two brothers live together and both work at the same pizzeria somewhere in Eastern Europe.

Kind of sick. But kind of hot. Like a good porn should be.

2006 GayVN Award Pics Part 2: Now with Commentary!

Awards shows fall somewhere between a class reunion and a bar fight. While it's glorious to see everyone again at first and politics are initially cast aside, the steady beat of wins and losses takes its toll and defensiveness builds. Luckily, by the time the last awards were announced at the 2006 GayVN Awards last Thursday, the alcohol had macerated bruised egos and removed most residual bitterness. Of course, that's when the night begins to lurch toward the surreal...

It helped this year that no one film swept the awards -- even the Best Picture resulted in a tie for Lucas Entertainment's Dangerous Liaisons and Rascal Video's Wrong Side of the Tracks. Given Michael Lucas and Rascal's Chi Chi LaRue famously contentious relationship, one would be hard pressed to argue the awards weren't presented fairly. Other big winners included Raging Stallion's sexcellent Arabesque, Bel Ami's Lukas in Love and Liquid Dreamz podiatric Wet Dreamz of Genie.

Highlights of the evening included host Chi Chi LaRue's ferocious sado-equestrian outfit, Michael Lucas' cocksure accptance speech ("If you didn't vote for me, fuck you!") and the barrage of ice cubes that pelted him afterward. The worldly and charmante Gus Mattox's capture of Perfomer of the Year had the crowd (and us) applauding wildly, and Chad Hunt's impromptu striptease at Chi Chi's Golightly-esque afterparty had our tongues wagging. And while it's hard to look better than an 11-inch cock, it was great to see NakedSwordsman 2006 Owen Hawk (with hubby Mattias Von Fistenberg) gripping the award for Best Specialty Video (Extreme) for Mutiny like their Lucite love child. I can't imagine any one being prouder.
