That Brent Corrigan Rentboy ad that first was real and then was fake and then was proven real again has shaken the entire gay adult industry (and the entire world, honestly) to its core. But perhaps the one INNOCENT VICTIM in the entire saga who has been unnecessarily dragged through the mud in the comments section of this blog was male madame and talent agent David Forest, who is said to be representing Brent Corrigan for live appearances and “Private Meetings.” Today, Madame Forest is speaking out and setting the record straight once and for all!
David Forest’s unedited email, as sent exclusively to The Sword this morning:
It’s a good thing I have an iron padded stomach. It seems that everything, lately, is MY fault.
In a very short and direct message I’m going to attempt to explain what little I know about this matter (Brent Corrigan’s pictures and phone number listed on a RentBoy ad in the Chicago section using some alias instead of his XXX name). Until I saw Zach’s original posting, I knew nothing. Of course I called Brent and he said it was a phony ad that someone had posted … and he was working to get it taken down. That seemed sensible … since, why would he advertise in the Chicago area AND at such a low price? I forwarded on his note to The Sword and copied Rentboy. I assumed that it was over.
The ad came down quickly … but, just as quickly, Rentboy went on The Sword’s blog and countered Brent’s story (“an imposter put that up”) … claiming that it WAS a real ad posted by Brent’s real name and using his real credit card info, address and phone number.
BUT … in any event … I know NOTHING more than what I’ve just outlined. Brent had continually told me NOT to ever include his name in my Meet The Stars RentBoy ads …. nor was I ever to include his name on my Meet The Stars website. I have kept my word. Any privates done by Brent are kept private.
This is one of those times when DAVID FOREST wasn’t consulted about something … but … I’m taking a lot of the blame. It’s a shame that many folks used this matter to hurl crap at Brent (with tidbits hitting me from the side) . When Rentboy posted about my “history” with them … I had to put my foot down. My history with RentBoy simply does not have anything to do with the ad that Brent claims was not his doing … yet Rentboy claims otherwise. It certainly wasn’t an ad of my doing, that’s for sure (even though RentBoy hinted that maybe it was a publicity stunt that I had arranged …. NOT!).
With the awful salaries that are being paid, these days, to the folks who do XXX movies … the only way to keep your head above water is by doing some “private meetings” in addition to the film stuff. AND, it isn’t a sign of a career coming to an end when a star begins doing privates. It’s just called, “using alternative sources of income” to pay your bills. Hell, RYAN IDOL, KEN RYKER, ZEB ATLAS and BILLY HERRINGTON … some of my most successful clients over the past few decades …. did “privates” whenever possible to bolster their income.
Happy Labor Day!
DAVID FOREST

So… apparently people hook for the money, not the sex. There’s a surprise. (/sarcasm)
So, Brent Corrigan once again lied. Big whoop. That only means that he can be the follow up Republican candidate for POTUS in case Romney and Ryan die from their pants catching fire thanks to all those lies they are spewing.
Brent lied, got caught, and David Forest can once again promote his Meet the Stars program. They got their fair share of attention out of it. That’s what I call a win-win situation.
Is the ad still on the site?
“I forwarded on his note to The Sword and copied Rentboy. I assumed that it was over.”
If that is to be believed then, in addition to being to being slimy, he is also DELUSIONAL. He “innocently” copied and sent a PRIVATE email to a gay BLOG and to Rentboy (sticking his nose in and stirring shit up) and “assumed it was over”??? Miss Forest can’t IMAGINE what all the hubbub was about? BLECH!!!
“This is one of those times when DAVID FOREST wasn’t consulted about something … but … I’m taking a lot of the blame.”
How truly BIG and NOBLE of the son-of-a-bitch (my eyes are rolling furiously heavenward in case you can’t tell.)
…. a short and direct message ??? Well, perhaps for him it is !!
At least David Forest owns up to his mistakes and tells the truth. Brent Corrigan is a user and a loser. He lied to all of us and shall NEVER be trusted again. You idiots donating to Brent’s film “campaign” deserve to be ripped-off. The chances of him actually going through with the project are nil to zero. He’s gonna use the money to PAY BILLS cause he ain’t making enough money doing porn (that’s why he has to hoar out his hole on rentboy). Anyone who donates money to this con-artist should ask for an itemized monthly statement and all receipts (to be posted to his website) as to how the money is being spent. I guarantee he won’t do it. And I guarantee you’ll be poorer for it. You’re all a bunch of suckers.
So far, just about every non-porn film Brent has announced he was attached to star in has gone on to be a film. I’ve read he’s in this one and one other one. Both flicks have regular production updates. So while he may be stupid for lying (or not) about being on a rentboy site, there’s nothing to your claim that he’s lied about getting money for mainstream movies.
“Brent Corrigan is a user and a loser. He lied to all of us and shall NEVER be trusted again.”
Hyperbole much, Mary? Get a hold of yourself. How exactly did he lie to “us?”
He PROBABLY lied to David Forest (so would I if that sweaty drama queen was huffing and puffing at me for having an escort ad up when I wouldn’t let said sweaty drama queen use my name in HIS rentboy ads) and this douchebag decided to cause trouble by firing off copies of his email to the very places he could be assured that it would (in all INNOCENCE of course)
Or did I miss Brent standing on the balcony of the La Casa Rosada with tears streaming down his face while denying all of it?
“DON’T Cry For Me ….”
Honest Question:
Are you getting paid to keep this guy relevant?
I echo this
I’m sorry but, what is the difference between doing porn, (having sex with someone you don’t know or just met for money) and turning tricks, ( having sex with a stranger you just met for money)? The only difference between the two is that one sexual encounter is being filmed for the world/public to see forever, and the other sexual encounter is between you and the “John”! If you are a porn star, the world and porn watching/buying public sees you as a hooker,slut, and loose anyway, so why not make the most of it and be an honest working hoe, and make your money! The same people who are taking issues with you being a hoe, will be the first in line to sample the product! I personally think hookers do the world a favor, they sleep with the men and women most people would not touch to scratch! Please spare me the oh Brent/Sean is worried about his image, once a porn star, always a porn star. You could not make a porn movie for twenty years and the second you do anything made public, you will be called former porn star John or Jane Doe, ask Traci Lords, Jenna Jameson, or Jeff Stryker????
This can’t be true because when Goldie Hawn filmed “Private Benjamn” she was at the height of her career!
Speaking of privates I wish I could have Jason Branch’s private but he retired :-(
Wanna know the most pressing issue I am reminded of after reading this post….
FUCK I MISS BILLY HERRINGTON!
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Never trust anyone who puts his name in caps. Sure sign of an ego that has gone off the rails.
