Has Britney Spears’ new album, Blackout, triggered something darker in Francois Sagat? In a twist reminiscent of The Manchurian Candidate, the album’s debut has caused Sagat to debut an increasingly esoteric and oft-terrifying cycle of videos whose explorations of identity borrow as much from Matthew Barney and Ryan Trecartin as they do, um, Titan Media or TRL. With his masks, his ass-less tights and his weird barking dog, it’s like he’s trying to tell us something; but what? In today’s lecture, we posit some answers.

It’s a pants off dance off with Southern twink Caleb Carter gyrating in front of a confederate flag to Pittburgh Slim’s “First Date.” We fuck on the first date, too, but we’d forgo the pleasure in order to bask in the glow of Caleb’s cognitive dissonance.

For decades we knew our porn stars birth marks better than we knew their birth names. While the post-Paris era has decreased the stigma of sex stardom, we still generally only get to know porn stars real names when they appear in court or on a stretcher.

When a hedge-fund manager turned up dead in West Palm Beach a few weeks back, we had a hard time getting excited about the possible gay porn connection.
At the supposed center of the male-strom was “Tiger,” a poorly tattooed one-time star with a penchant for posing on eponymous rugs. It was easy to look away. But now that annoying tranny star Kayla Coxx is involved, it seems there’s no avoiding it.

After all the nog and slog of the holiday season, what we really want for Christmas is a hooker. Not some tarted up masseur offering mutual-touch with release, but an honest-to-god two-hundred-dollar escort.

We asked fifty working porn stars for a moment of their time.  Turns out not everyone is available

Alex Castro, who seems to have appeared under the name Elian Cortez in a COLT photo shoot, is now making prime time television appearances under the name “Militia” on American Gladiators. (Is that still on?  Oh, apparently it’s a revival.)  We can’t seem to find evidence of Elian Cortez working in the gay adult film industry, as Perez Hilton seems to imply and COLT would like to claim-only a calendar photo shoot. But this wouldn’t be the first time a COLT man got some mainstream TV play this year. Gage Weston dropped in on Bravo’s Workout, chatting up lipstick lez gym owner Jackie Warner and flirting with gay trainer Jesse…

That Boy star Peter Berlin captivated
audiences for years with his iconic Dutch Boy cut and too-tight jeans, and now
claims that beauty like his might help bring about world peace. In an interview
in this month’s issue of GayVN magazine,
explains the cause behind the terrible phenomenon that begat Darfur and Iraq:

“The world
is ruled by ugly people. Look at your Congress. The natural thing is for men to
express their sexuality, to enjoy it. Those fat men in suits and short hair who
rule the world, no wonder they fight wars. Such schizophrenia! Men still have
no self-respect, no self-love. If you do not respect or love yourself, you
cannot respect or love anyone else. Therefore, war. Rather than showing a dick,
they take up a gun. I have so much I would like to say. Perhaps this interview
will convince someone out there that I am not just a stupid blond.”

Finally we’ve found a porn that taps into the gay experience of the Pacific Northwest. Do you even know what a “pumphouse” is? We do, and we had one in our backyard. It’s a weird little shack that’s used to pump water when you’re so secluded from civilization that your household operates on well water. How perfect that the studio named after the spider-den rabbit hutch of our 4H youth has produced FAG WAGON! Remember the time we all took that trip up to Portland in our friend’s parents’ van and got wasted in Eureka, and you met that fag from that band and totally gave him a blowjob in said van, which was parked in the driveway of the punk house where they played? Remember when you took him back with you and made out to Pinback CDs in the backseat but then he started to annoy you so you ditched him in Ukiah?

This vintage clip from Snowballing (Gentlemen’s Video) features a trio of 70s hunks cruising one another on a mountainside, spliced with a skiing montage, to the Beach Boys’ “I Get Around.” Though not included here, they later retreat to a lodge and fuck to David Bowie!  We wish we were making this up.

People said it wouldn’t last–and it didn’t. One YouTube-video filled year later, Ginch Gonch spokestwunks Benjamin Bradley and Ethan Reynolds are no more. So while the rest of the world is celebrating the impending nuptials of Roman Heart and Benjamin Bradley (together again, just like Pam and Tommy!), we thought we’d take this time to ponder the romance that was too hot not to cool down. We can only hope that Benjamin brings his enthusiasm for banal video diaries with him in this new romantic venture. Godspeed, camera-loving faglets!

The Toyota
Motor Corp is suing bareback porn company Eboys Studios over a (Swiss?) star’s use of
the trademarked name of luxury car brand Lexus. Eboys has not-so-cleverly
responded that said star based the name on the Greek god Lexus who,
inconveniently for them does not exist.  Oddly, and apropos of nothing, according to Jonathan Mahler’s The Lexus Story, one of the inspirations…

On the latest Tim and
Roma Show, the two “Best Personality” nominees (thanks for giving them big heads, Cybersocket!) wax political over how barebacking
titles seem to be gaining popularity and how the trend parallels increased HIV
rates among gay men. Too bad the episode didn’t air before the filming of British Bareback Vacation, because one
of the co-stars contracted HIV on the set and is now thinking of suing the
film’s producers in
order to prevent other young men from suffering the same fate.. Hasn’t anyone told him that being popular is
the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS? (via GayVN
